Rojas went 3-for-5 with a run and a stolen base in Friday's loss to Houston.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas hit from the leadoff spot for the second time in three games and registered his first three-hit performance in exactly one month. He scored the go-ahead run after starting the 10th inning at second base as the inherited runner, but the Astros were able to pull the game out in the bottom of the frame. Rojas is slashing .270/.347/.426 with 11 home runs, 65 runs, 42 RBI and nine stolen bases in his first full big-league campaign.

Rojas went 1-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Sunday's 10-4 loss to the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
The two runs give Rojas 60 for the season, second on the team behind Pavin Smith. He filled in at shortstop for the resting Nick Ahmed on Sunday, the 29th start at the position for Rojas, who will continue to move around the diamond through the rest of the season. He's also been deployed at second base and both corner outfield spots. Rojas has established himself as a piece for the 2022 iteration of the Diamondbacks, though it's unclear if he'll continue to be deployed as a utility guy or given a stable home. He entered MLB as a second baseman primarily.

Rojas went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
It took a string of six at-bats without a hit for Rojas to acclimate following downtime due to a dislocated finger, but the infielder's bat is cooking right now. He has 13 hits in the 19 at-bats (.684) with six extra-base hits and five RBI over the last five games. He's sharing second base with Josh VanMeter but started at shortstop Tuesday. Both of those versatile infielders are hitting, which could lead to more time at short for Rojas, ahead of Nick Ahmed.

Rojas went 4-for-5 with a double, two runs, two RBI and a walk in a 12-3 victory against the Padres on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas singled in the first, walked and scored in the second, doubled and scored in the fourth, singled in the sixth and brought home two runs with a single in the seventh. The 27-year-old enjoyed his best game of the season and broke out of an 0-for-6 slump following a stint on the IL. Reaching base five times increased his on-base percentage a substantial seven points in just one game.
