Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Miguel Rojas (hamstring) will start his minor-league rehab assignment on Saturday. If all goes well, he could be activated from the 10-day injured list during the team's series against the Philadelphia Phillies, which begins on Monday, May 1. The 34-year-old veteran infielder last played on April 18 before injuring his hamstring. Acquired from the Miami Marlins in an offseason trade, Rojas has taken on more significance in 2023 now that Gavin Lux (knee) is out for the entire season with a torn ACL suffered in spring training. Rojas only had four hits in his first 32 at-bats in 11 games before getting injured, but he should see most of the playing time at the 6 for LA when he's back. Mookie Betts and Chris Taylor have mostly been splitting time at shortstop with Rojas sidelined.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Miguel Rojas (abdomen) took part in live batting practice on Wednesday. Rojas faced right-handed pitcher Roki Sasaki. The 35-year-old also participated in defensive drills during Wednesday's session. Rojas underwent sports hernia surgery during the offseason but is expected to be ready for Opening Day. Seeing him participate in live hitting drills and fielding work early in spring training is a positive sign that he will be ready for the start of the regular season. Earlier in the offseason, the Dodgers brought back the infielder on a one-year $5 million contract. Last season, Rojas held a .283/.337/.410 line with 21 doubles, six home runs, and eight stolen bases. When healthy, fantasy managers should expect Rojas to operate as a depth piece in the infield.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

According to Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Miguel Rojas (abdomen) is expected to be ready for Opening Day. The 35-year-old suffered an infection due to the sports hernia surgery he underwent in the offseason. While this setback delayed his offseason program, fantasy managers should expect the veteran to be ready for Opening Day. Last season, Rojas held a .283/.337/.410 slash line with six home runs and eight stolen bases. He was an elite defender, posting a strong 12 outs above average (OAA). He also showed an excellent eye at the plate with a 13.9 percent whiff rate and a 10.1 percent strikeout rate, which were both among the highest marks. When healthy, fantasy managers should expect Rojas to operate as a depth piece in the Dodger infield and should only be targeted in deeper NL-only formats.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

The Los Angeles Dodgers exercised shortstop Miguel Rojas' $5 million club option for the 2025 season on Saturday. Although Rojas finished the team's World Series championship season battling a groin injury, the 2024 campaign was a very successful one for the 35-year-old veteran Venezuelan infielder. Known mostly for his glove at the 6, Rojas impressed in 103 regular-season games in his second year in Hollywood with a .283/.337/.410 slash line, six home runs, 36 RBI, eight stolen bases and 41 runs scored. He will need surgery on his torn groin this offseason, but he should be recovered in time to be ready for the start of the 2025 regular season, where he'll once again serve as a solid defender for the Blue at shortstop. Fantasy managers in NL-only leagues shouldn't expect Rojas to swing the bat as well as he did in 2024, though.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitchers Alex Vesia (ribs) and Brusdar Graterol (shoulder), and infielder Miguel Rojas (hernia) are all on the team's roster for the World Series. Vesia hurt his rib cage in the NLDS and was left off the roster for the NLCS, but is ready to rock and will likely be used in high-leverage situations against lefties Juan Soto and Jazz Chisholm. Graterol (shoulder) hasn't pitched since landing on the IL in late September with right-shoulder inflammation, but has been working his way back and should be used in a high-leverage role after a dominant regular season. Rojas has already said he will need offseason surgery to repair a sports hernia, but will play through the injury and try to provide the Dodgers with stellar defense when he plays. Kevin Kiermaier, Evan Phillips (arm fatigue), and Edgardo Henriquez were removed from the World Series roster to make room for the trio.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller
