Rojas is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas hasn't been a platoon player since his return, and in fact he has some reverse splits so far this year, but he will sit Saturday against lefty Austin Gomber. Jake Hager will man the hot corner for Arizona. After a three-hit game Friday, Rojas is now batting .260/.326/.385 with four homers and five stolen bases in 46 games this season.

Rojas went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a walk and two runs scored in Friday's 9-3 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas has posted multiple hits in three of his last four games, going 7-for-18 (.389) in that span. He was effective at keeping the line moving Friday, again serving in the leadoff role. The versatile 28-year-old is up to a .260/.326/.385 slash line with four home runs, 18 RBI, 27 runs scored, seven doubles and five stolen bases through 46 contests, and he's claimed a near-everyday role at third base with his solid hitting.

Rojas batted leadoff and went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 11-7 win over Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
This was the second straight game in the leadoff spot for Rojas, both against righties, as it appears manager Torey Lovullo is giving Daulton Varsho a break from that role. Since being hit on the right shoulder blade May 27, Varsho had gone 15-for-86 (.174) with a .428 OPS before delivering a pair of hits, including a three-run home run, Sunday. Rojas has experience as a leadoff batter -- a career 83 games started at the top of the order is his most of any spot in the order -- and has generally hit among the top three in the order since the middle of May. The infielder initially batted in the lower half of the order following a stay on the injured list that forced him to miss the first five weeks of the season.

Rojas went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas got aboard with a single in the sixth inning, stole second and scored on a Buddy Kennedy grand slam. While he's gone 3-for-20 (.150) with six strikeouts in his last five games, Rojas has added two of his five steals this season in that span. The versatile 27-year-old has a .254/.329/.388 slash line with four home runs, 16 RBI, 21 runs scored, four doubles and a triple. He's primarily played at third base lately, taking on an everyday role.

Rojas went 0-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and three strikeouts in Tuesday's 5-3 extra-innings loss to the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas walked and stole second in the 11th inning. He represented the winning run, but Ketel Marte's groundout ended the inning. This was the first time all year Rojas has been held without a hit in consecutive games -- he's 0-for-9 against the Reds in this series. The 27-year-old's mini-slump has dropped his slash line to .263/.346/.415 with four home runs, four stolen bases, 16 RBI and 19 runs scored through 33 contests.

Rojas went 1-for-5 with a two-run double in Friday's loss against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas doubled home Jake McCarthy and Alek Thomas in the seventh inning to bring the game within one run, but the Phillies still escaped with a win. Rojas now has at least one hit in each of his last three games and in six of his last eight, going 8-for-32 (.250) with four extra-base hits in that longer span.

Rojas went 1-for-4 with a single, two RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 5-4 come-from-behind win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas' two-run single was amidst Arizona's four-run ninth inning that turned a loss into a win. He's been a remarkably consistent bat in the Diamondbacks' order, never going more than one game without a hit. The team's primary third baseman is slashing .284/.369/.463 over 28 games and 111 plate appearances.

Rojas went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a triple and an additional run scored during Wednesday's win over Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas returned to the lineup after being benched Tuesday and slugged his first home run since May 20, when he hit three against the Cubs. He added a leadoff triple in the seventh and came around to score on a Ketel Marte single one batter later. Across 27 games, Rojas is slashing .286/.368/.473 with four homers and 11 RBI.
