Wed Feb 2118:14Amed Rosario To Serve In Utility Role
Tampa Bay Rays president of baseball operations Erik Neander said that the plan is to play infielder Amed Rosario at both middle-infield positions and in the corner-outfield spots in 2024 after signing him to a one-year, $1.5 million deal on Tuesday. Rosario will give the Rays more insurance at the 6 with Wander Franco potentially never playing for the team again given his off-the-field issues, but Jose Caballero will remain the primary option at shortstop. The 28-year-old Rosario has been a lefty killer in his career, so between multiple positions with the Rays in 2024, the Dominican infielder should play rather regularly when the club faces a left-handed pitcher. He'll be most attractive as a low-cost DFS play against southpaws, but with modest power and speed, Rosario's fantasy ceiling is low.

Tue Feb 2014:53Amed Rosario Agrees With Rays On One-Year Deal
Free-agent infielder Amed Rosario and the Tampa Bay Rays agreed on Tuesday to a one-year, $1.5 million deal, according to sources. The 28-year-old will bring a strong bat against left-handed pitching and should get at-bats at shortstop, second base and potentially in the corner-outfield spots in 2024. It's more insurance for the Rays at shortstop with the possibility that Wander Franco will never play in the big leagues again. Rosario is a career .272 hitter in seven major-league seasons, and he slashed .263/.305/.378 with six home runs, 58 RBI, 15 stolen bases and 70 runs scored in 142 games last year with the Guardians and Dodgers. The move to Tampa makes the veteran infielder more attractive as a deep-mixed corner infielder and for DFS lineups against lefties, who he has hit .298/.339/.467 against in his career.

Fri Sep 8 202308:41Amed Rosario Stays Hot Thursday
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Amed Rosario put up a multi-hit game on Thursday, going 2-for-5 with a run and two RBI, helping his club blowout the Miami Marlins 10-0. The seven-year veteran is having an excellent September thus far, batting .375 over six games. Across 127 games overall this season, Rosario owns a .262/.303/.379 slash line with six homers, 63 runs, 56 RBI, and 13 stolen bases. Those are serviceable numbers in standard formats, but the 27-year-old is stuck in a platoon, making him a deep league option for the remainder of the season.

Wed Aug 9 202320:07Amed Rosario Getting A Day Off
Los Angeles Dodgers middle infielder Amed Rosario is taking the day off on Wednesday in the series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks. With Rosario resting, Mookie Betts is at the keystone and hitting leadoff, with Miguel Rojas at shortstop and hitting ninth against Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly. Rosario has certainly been more attractive in fantasy with the move from the Cleveland Guardians to the Dodgers at this year's trade deadline. The 27-year-old Dominican isn't always going to be in the starting lineup for a stacked Dodgers squad, but he has made the most of his opportunities so far in LA. In 10 games for the Blue, he's gone 8-for-32 (.250) with two homers, two doubles, nine RBI, a steal and five runs scored. Overall, Rosario is hitting a .264 (110-for-417) with five homers, 49 RBI, 10 steals and 56 runs scored in 2023.

Wed Jul 26 202319:11Dodgers Acquire Amed Rosario
The Los Angeles Dodgers have acquired shortstop Amed Rosario from the Cleveland Guardians on Wednesday. This deal makes sense for the Dodgers who have experienced issues in the field all season long. Rosario is on the last year of his deal before free agency, so it sounds like Guardians weren't interested in extending him long term. Rosario is slashing .265/.306/.369 with three home runs and 40 RBI across 90 games. The expectation is that he'll have similar fantasy value in Los Angeles. There is no word yet on what the Guardians are receiving in exchange for Rosario.

Sun Jul 23 202312:08Amed Rosario Takes A Seat Against Phillies
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario will take a day off on Sunday with the team facing the visiting Philadelphia Phillies. Rosario will get a much-needed day to rest after starting each of the team's last 38 games. He's had a solid month of July to this point and is currently riding a modest five-game hitting streak in which he's gone 6-for-22 (.273) with a home run, a double, six RBI and five runs scored in 23 plate appearances. Overall, the 27-year-old Dominican is hitting .261/.303/.356 with only three home runs, 17 doubles, five triples, 40 RBI, nine stolen bases and 49 runs scored in 91 games in his third year in Cleveland. Tyler Freeman is starting at the 6 on Sunday and is in the two-hole against Phillies right-hander Aaron Nola.

Wed Jul 19 202316:40Amed Rosario Drives In Two In Wednesday's Loss
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario went 1-for-5 with a double, two RBI, a run scored, and a strikeout in a 7-5 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday. Rosario did all of his damage in the fifth inning when he sliced a double off Rich Hill to score Myles Straw and Steven Kwan. Josh Bell would then single in Rosario in that same frame to give Cleveland a 4-0 lead. The 27-year-old shortstop did nothing in his fourth other plate appearances, unfortunately. Rosario has been a bit underwhelming so far this season, as has most of Cleveland's offense outside of Jose Ramirez and Josh Naylor. However, while he's hitting just .194 (6-for-31) over the last seven games, he's slashing a rock-solid .313/.341/.420 with 22 RBI over the last 30 games. Overall, Rosario owns a .262/.305/.360 batting line with three home runs, 39 RBI, and nine stolen bases across 367 at-bats.

Wed Jun 7 202316:05Amed Rosario Back In Action Against Boston
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario (knee) is back at shortstop and is hitting second on Wednesday against Boston Red Sox right-hander Kutter Crawford. Rosario will return to the team's starting lineup after missing a couple of games with left-knee soreness, but he'll be available for fantasy managers again Wednesday. Gabriel Arias will return to the bench as a result. Aside from eight stolen bases on the year, Rosario has done very little offensively for fantasy managers, and he's hitting just .146 (6-for-41) with three doubles and four RBI in his last 12 games. In 211 total at-bats in 2023, the 27-year-old Dominican is slashing only .227/.273/.318 with one long ball and 14 RBI.

Sun Jun 4 202313:35Amed Rosario Absent From The Guardians Lineup
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario (knee) is not in the lineup on Sunday against the Minnesota Twins. Rosario left Saturday's contest early with left knee soreness so Sunday's absence is likely related to that. Hopefully, this extra maintenance day will help the 27-year-old avoid the injured list. Tyler Freeman is taking over at shortstop and batting second against Joe Ryan in Rosario's place.

Sat Jun 3 202321:25Amed Rosario Exits With Knee Soreness
Cleveland Guardians shortstop/outfielder Amed Rosario (knee) exited Saturday's game early against the Minnesota Twins with left knee soreness. He went 0-for-2 before leaving. Tyler Freeman replaced the 27-year-old in the fourth inning. The severity of Rosario's knee issue is unknown, and he's considered day-to-day. Cleveland will provide an update on Rosario after the game. He has struggled this season, slashing .220/.270/.314 with one homer, 13 RBI, 24 runs, and eight stolen bases across 52 games. Freeman would see an uptick in at-bats if Rosario were to miss additional games.

Sat May 27 202322:29Amed Rosario Hits Two Doubles In Saturday's Loss
Cleveland Guardians shortstopAmed Rosariowent 2-for-5 with two doubles in Saturday's loss to the St. Cardinals. It's difficult to score or drive in runs anywhere in Cleveland's lineup right now as their struggles continue, but Rosario continues to bat second in the order. His average on the season certainly improved Saturday, but he's still hitting .243 for the year. Overall, the 27-year-old is slashing .243/.283/.346 with a homer, 13 RBI, 22 runs, and eight stolen bases over 198 plate appearances. Rosario hit at least .282 in each of the last two seasons for Cleveland, so there should be some optimism that he'll eventually turn things around, and Saturday was a step in the right direction.

Sun May 7 202314:28Amed Rosario Gets Rare Rest Day Sunday
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario is out of Sunday's lineup for their series finale against the Twins. He has started 12 consecutive outings dating back to April 22 as Cleveland's everyday two-hole hitter. The 27-year-old is watching his ownership percentage in some fantasy leagues begin to drop a bit, slashing a mere .214/.254/.299 over 126 plate appearances in 2023. His six stolen bases are about the only saving grace for his fantasy value while he's laboring at the dish. Rosario is a hold in fantasy while still sandwiched in the Guardians lineup between table-setter Steven Kwan and superstar Jose Ramirez. Rosario is also quietly recording a 47% hard-hit rate so far, the highest clip of his career, and Andres Gimenez isn't posing much of threat to his spot in the lineup right now.

Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario (back) has returned to the starting lineup on Friday against left-hander Braxton Garrett and the Miami Marlins. Rosario is starting at shortstop and is hitting in the two-hole. The 27-year-old was hurt last Saturday and sat out until Friday with his back injury. Fantasy managers are thankful that he was able to avoid a trip to the injured list. Make sure to get Rosario back into your starting lineups for the weekend series against Miami despite the fact that he's hitting just .222 (14-for-63) with two doubles, a triple, a home run, four RBI, three stolen bases and seven runs scored in 69 plate appearances and his first 14 games of the season.

Tue Apr 18 202312:00Guardians Hoping Amed Rosario Can Return Friday
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario (back) went back to Cleveland on Monday to get an MRI exam on his back, which came back fine. However, the team is hoping he'll be ready to return to the lineup on Friday, and he remains out of the starting lineup for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Detroit Tigers. Tyler Freeman is with the club in the meantime and is starting at the 6 and hitting eighth in Game 1 against Tigers left-hander Matthew Boyd on Tuesday. Rosario hasn't played since last Saturday and has gone 14-for-63 (.222) with two doubles, a triple, a home run, four RBI, three stolen bases and seven runs scored in his first 14 games of the season. Fantasy managers should plan to have him back by this weekend.

Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario (back) is not in the lineup on Sunday against the Washington Nationals. Manager Terry Francona told reporters that Rosario's back is a bit "balky" and he should be considered day-to-day. The 27-year-old shortstop will take a seat on Sunday against Patrick Corbin and the Nats with Gabriel Arias filling in for him and batting second. Rosario is slashing .222/.275/.333 with one home run, four RBI, and three stolen bases over 63 at-bats. The team should provide another update on him on Monday.

Tue Apr 11 202314:45Amed Rosario Absent From Tuesday's Starting Lineup
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario is not in Tuesday's starting lineup as the club takes on New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole. Rosario has started all 11 games out of the two-hole for the Guardians to this point but understandably starts on the bench against one of the game's best right-handed pitchers in Cole. After all, Rosario's career splits are far superior against left-handed pitching while he's just 1-for-13 with a walk in his career against the Yankees ace. Twenty-three-year-old Gabriel Arias will get the start at shortstop hitting ninth for the Guardians on Tuesday night.

Sun Mar 26 202317:35Amed Rosario Discussing Extension
Cleveland Guardians shortstop Amed Rosario is reportedly talking extension with the organization. It sounds like the organization has reached out to Rosario's agent about a possible extension. Despite that, there isn't strong inclination that a deal is going to get done between the two sides. Rosario has mentioned he enjoys playing in Cleveland and doesn't consider Opening Day as a hard deadline to get a deal done. The 27-year-old slashed .283/.312/.403 with a .715 OPS, 11 home runs, 71 RBI, and 18 stolen bases last season. His biggest asset is his speed, but he does enough to make him worth rostering in most fantasy formats.

Fri Jan 13 202320:00Guardians, Amed Rosario Agree On One-Year, $7.8 Million Deal
The Cleveland Guardians agreed to a one-year, $7.8 million deal on Friday with shortstop Amed Rosario to avoid salary arbitration. In his second full season in Cleveland after four years with the New York Mets to begin his MLB career, Rosario slashed .283/.312/.403 with a .715 OPS, 11 home runs, 71 RBI, 86 runs scored and 18 stolen bases in 670 plate appearances over 153 games played. The 27-year-old is durable but lacks elite upside at a deep shortstop position in fantasy. His best asset is probably his speed, but Rosario has only had 20-plus thefts one time in six major-league seasons. Rosario is a fringe top-20 option at the position heading into 2023 drafts.
