Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Rojas was the Mariners' Opening Day third baseman last season and came out of the gate firing on all cylinders with a .938 OPS, three home runs and two stolen bases in April. Unfortunately, he then proceeded to slash just .208/.285/.301 over the final five months and was non-tendered as a result. Rojas did grade out superbly on defense for the second straight year, but he also posted a .641 OPS for the second year in a row and again ranked as a below-average runner. He's a versatile defender with a career 10 percent walk rate, but Rojas has never had much power and if the speed continues to go in the wrong direction as he enters his 30s, it's difficult to see a path to fantasy relevance. He should receive plenty of opportunities after signing a one-year deal with the White Sox, and he's a likely trade candidate with a strong first half in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
Lands on shelf
The White Sox placed Rojas (toe) on the 10-day injured list Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Rojas is working his way back from a hairline fracture in his right big toe, an injury he sustained in mid-March. While Rojas is on the mend from the injury, the White Sox will likely turn to Lenyn Sosa and Brooks Baldwin to pick up most of the starts at second base.

Recent RotoWire Articles Featuring Josh Rojas See More
Several job battles have been settled around the American League, including the Royals' fifth starter job, which appears to have been won by Kris Bubic.
Todd Zola explains how projected playing time and a skills-based approach helps him identify upside plays late in a draft, as well as leading him to put Aaron Judge at the top of his personal rankings.
Todd Zola examines strategies for the Underdog postseason contest, and notes that while Shoehi Ohtani may be the best player, you may not want to take him first overall.

Rojas played all over the field for the Diamondbacks in 2021-2022 while posting decent numbers, but he was unsuccessful in his 59 games with Arizona last summer with a .589 OPS, and was traded to Seattle in the deal for Paul Sewald. Once added to the Mariners roster, Rojas was in the lineup on a regular basis against right-handed pitchers, and he improved his slash to a respectable .272/.321/.400 while swiping six bases over 46 games.While it was encouraging to see the numbers increase upon joining his new club, the overall numbers were still ugly, and he ranked near the bottom of baseball in hard-hit percentage, expected slugging, barrel rate and expected weight on-base average. He also remained a liability against left-handed pitching with a .562 OPS, and it seems likely he won't be in the lineup in 2024 against southpaws very often. Rojas should have eligibility at second and third base and has a chance to carve out a regular role with the Mariners, but his fantasy value is severely limited as a player that isn't likely to contribute in many categories.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Serious interest from Cubs
The Cubs are among the clubs showing "serious interest" in Rojas, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Cubs just traded for a utility player in Vidal Brujan, but it sounds like they could be in the market for another one with Rojas. The 30-year-old Rojas would give Chicago an option at third base, if the club decides Matt Shaw isn't ready. Rojas has put up just a .641 OPS each of the last two seasons, but he has graded out well defensively and offers the versatility teams covet.
