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
Signed a one-year, $3.5 million contract with the White Sox in January of 2025.
Homers from nine-spot in win
Rojas went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Friday's 6-3 win over the Angels.
Analysis
Rojas has homered in back-to-back games after he added a big insurance run to the White Sox tally in the top of the ninth inning. That brings his season total up to three on the season, a good stretch of baseball for the 31-year-old in what's been an otherwise forgettable campaign. The infielder is slashing a mere .176/.246/.261 on the season, with his .508 OPS on pace to be the worst mark of his career in a season in which he's played at least 60 games.

Stat Review
How does Josh Rojas compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2020
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.
