Fills in at second base Rojas started at second base and went 1-for-4 in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Giants.
Impact Rojas filled in at second base for a second consecutive game with Ketel Marte (hamstring) unavailable. Marte's injury is not considered serious at this point, so Rojas will eventually move back to third base, which is being handled by Emmanuel Rivera for now. It was the fifth start at second for Rojas, who's in danger of losing middle-infielder eligibility in 2023 depending on league requirements.

Running wild Rojas went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Giants.
Impact Rojas stole a base for the third consecutive game and is up to 16, a career high in the majors, and he has not been caught. He hasn't been as prolific a base stealer as when he was a minor leaguer; Rojas stole 38 bags in 2018 and 32 in 2019 before becoming a regular for Arizona.

Fills stat sheet Saturday Rojas went 3-for-5 with a home run, a stolen base and three RBI in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Rockies.
Impact Rojas accounted for half of the Diamondbacks' offense with a two-run home run in the fifth inning and an RBI single in the ninth. He also logged a steal after a single in the seventh. The 28-year-old hadn't gone yard since July 27, but he's up to three steals in August. For the season, Rojas sports a .276/.348/.410 slash line, seven homers, 35 RBI, 46 runs scored and 14 steals through 333 plate appearances. He's seen most of his playing time at third base this year, but the versatile defender could move around the diamond if manager Torey Lovullo opts to get the hot-hitting Emmanuel Rivera in the lineup more often.
