Rojas isn't in the Mariners' lineup for Wednesday's game against Detroit, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Southpaw Tarik Skubal will toe the slab for the Tigers, which will send the lefty-hitting Rojas to the bench to begin Wednesday's contest. Dylan Moore will slide over to third base as a result, allowing Leo Rivas to pick up a start at shortstop.

Rojas went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's extra-inning loss to the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas gave Seattle its first and only lead in the fifth inning with a solo shot to center field. It was just his second homer during a rough July in which the third baseman batted .200 over 70 at-bats, though he did work 13 walks. Rojas batted leadoff for the first time in six games Wednesday, and that could continue to be his slot in the lineup for as long as Victor Robles (hip) remains out of action.

Rojas went 2-for-3 with a walk in a loss to the Red Sox on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas served up his first multi-hit effort since July 2 while also drawing his fourth walk in the last three games. The 30-year-old remains locked into a near-everyday role, and he's in the midst of a brief but promising upswing that's seen him produce a .286 average and .474 on-base percentage over his last five games.

Rojas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas went 2-for-8 with two walks, a double and a three-run homer in the first two games of the series, but he'll take a seat for the finale with southpaw Garrett Crochet pitching for Chicago. Dylan Moore will shift to third base while Leo Rivas receives a start at shortstop.

Rojas went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in a win over the White Sox on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas made his one hit count, as he hit a 386-foot shot to right center in the first inning that brought home Jason Vosler and Mitch Garver. The blast was the first of three straight for the Mariners in the opening frame and snapped a 31-game homerless drought for Rojas, who'd last left the yard June 15. Despite the big hit, Rojas still has a ways to go to bring his numbers back up to par with his early-season body of work, as he's hitting just .158 and sporting an anemic .518 OPS across 66 plate appearances in July.

Rojas went 2-for-2 in a loss to the Orioles on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas' pair of singles were the only hits the Mariners' moribund offense was able to muster against Grayson Rodriguez and a trio of relievers. The veteran infielder has emerged from a recent 0-for-13, four-game skid in solid fashion, going 5-for-13 over the next four contests, albeit with just one extra-base hit (a double) in that span.

Rojas went 2-for-4 with an RBI double in an extra-inning win over the Twins on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Rojas was the only Mariner to garner multiple hits on a quiet night overall for Seattle's bats, and he contributed the first run of the game on a fifth-inning two-bagger that plated Mitch Haniger. Rojas now has four multi-hit efforts in the last 12 games, a stretch during which he's accumulated five extra-base hits despite a modest .250 average and .302 on-base percentage. Friday's production also snapped a rare skid for Rojas, who'd gone 0-for-14 over the previous four contests.
