Sticking around in Los Angeles The Dodgers exercised Rojas' $5 million club option for 2025 on Saturday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
Impact Rojas appeared in 103 regular-season games for the Dodgers in 2024 and slashed .283/.337/.410 with six home runs and 36 RBI across 337 plate appearances. Rojas suffered a torn adductor injury during the NLDS against the Padres, which will require surgery during the offseason, but he was able to play in Game 2 of the World Series against the Yankees, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout. It's unclear whether Rojas' procedure will have the 35-year-old shortstop sidelined for the start of spring training.

Impact Rojas has a torn abductor and will need to undergo surgery during the offseason, but his chances of playing in the World Series are still alive. He did not play in the NLCS versus the Mets despite trying, but the Dodgers elected to add Kevin Kiermaier to the roster instead.

Diagnosed with sports hernia Rojas said Wednesday that he has a sports hernia and will need to undergo surgery during the offseason, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact Rojas noted that he attempted to persuade the Dodgers to keep him on the roster for the NLCS despite his injury, and he feels that he could still play through it if Los Angeles advances to the World Series. However, based on the team's unwillingness to play him in the Championship Series, it seems more likely that the 35-year-old infielder remains sidelined until next season.

Mets add McNeil to NLCS roster while Dodgers drop Vesia and Rojas, add Kiermaier and Honeywell

Absent from NLCS roster Rojas (thigh) isn't on Los Angeles' roster for the NLCS against the Mets, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
Impact Rojas aggravated an adductor injury during Game 3 of the NLDS versus San Diego and wasn't able to play in either of the final two games of the series. The veteran shortstop has been dealing with the issue since late September, and the Dodgers are opting to hold him out of the NLCS to give him time to heal. It's possible that Rojas could return if the team advances to the World Series, but in the meantime, Tommy Edman could handle shortstop duties. Outfielder Kevin Kiermaier is taking Rojas' place on the roster for the series versus the Mets, per Toribio.

Impact Rojas has been playing through an adductor injury since September, and he seemed to aggravate it while running the bases in the third inning Tuesday. If the 35-year-old infielder is forced to miss any additional games, Tommy Edman would likely move to shortstop while Andy Pages fills the gap in center field.

Back in lineup for Game 1 of NLDS Rojas (thigh) is batting ninth and starting at shortstop in Game 1 of the NLDS against San Diego on Saturday.
Impact Rojas sat out the final four games of the regular season after aggravating a left adductor injury, but the team expressed optimism ahead of the NLDS that he'd be back for Game 1. That will indeed be the case Saturday, as Rojas is slated to start at shortstop for Los Angeles. Tommy Edman -- who had been filling in at shortstop in Rojas' stead -- will head back to center field for Game 1, which pushes Andy Pages back to a fourth-outfielder role.
