Rojas has been playing shortstop and second base during spring training games, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas, who came to Arizona in the Zack Greinke trade last year, played primarily in the outfield during his 41-game stint in the majors. "He's getting a lot of his time as an infielder because I only was able to evaluate him prior to this year as an outfielder," manager Torey Lovullo said. He'd played a variety of positions in the minors and is being eyed as an infielder/outfielder for 2020, which could give him an edge while vying to be the team's 26th man.

Rojas went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas, who has collected six hits in the last two games, told Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic that he's finally feeling comfortable at the plate, three weeks into his MLB tenure. "I'm seeing pitches well, I'm staying in the zone a lot better, not swinging at pitches out of the zone like I was early when I first came up," Rojas said. "I do feel better, but I couldn't say why that is." The Arizona native has hit safely in six straight games, going 10-for-22 with two home runs, two doubles, six runs and six RBI.

Rojas went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, a walk and another run scored in Friday's win over the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas drilled his first major-league home run with a two-run shot off Casey Sadler in the seventh inning to tie the game at 4-4. Over 14 games, Rojas is batting .205/.295/.308 and should continue to see playing time against right-handed pitchers.

Rojas started in left field and went 0-for-3 in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
The Diamondbacks placed David Peralta (shoulder) on the injured list Saturday, so Rojas took over in left field against Milwaukee right-hander Chase Anderson. After an initial burst of activity upon his addition to Arizona's roster, Rojas is mired in a 2-for-21 (.095) slide, dropping his average to .200 over 11 games. He and the recently called up Tim Locastro should platoon in left field going forward.

EDGE Analysis
It seems as though Rojas has settled into the strong side of a right field platoon with Adam Jones. He will head to the bench against lefty Kyle Freeland in this one.
