  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Goes yard

    Rosario went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Sunday's 11-5 loss to the Phillies.

    Rosario clobbered his sixth home run of the campaign -- each of which has come off right-handed pitching -- in the fourth inning off Aaron Nola. Although Rosario is batting .180, he's swiped six bags through 36 games, tying his combined total from the last two seasons.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Resting versus lefty

    Rosario isn't in the Nationals' lineup Saturday against the Phillies.

    Rosario will take a seat on the bench as southpaw Cristopher Sanchez gets set to start Saturday's game for Philadelphia. Jesse Winker, Jacob Young and Victor Robles will start across the outfield while Rosario sits.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Taking seat against southpaw

    Rosario is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    With left-hander Garrett Crochet on the hill for Chicago, the lefty-hitting Rosario will hit the bench for the series finale. Rosario picked up starts in the corner outfield in both ends of Tuesday's doubleheader, going a collective 2-for-9 with a double, an RBI and a run scored.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Lone source of offense

    Rosario went 1-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and a two-run home run during Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Red Sox.

    The veteran outfielder produced the Nationals' only runs Sunday, taking Brayan Bello deep in the fourth frame. Rosario is on a tear, having swatted four home runs in his last six games while reaching base multiple times in seven consecutive contests. He has also produced three stolen bases during that stretch, tying his 2022 and 2023 totals.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Stays hot Friday

    Rosario went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 5-1 win over the Red Sox.

    The 32-year-old got the start in left field and continued a sudden hot streak that has seen Rosario rack up eight hits in the last five games with two homers, three steals, four RBI and eight runs. That surge comes on the heels of an 0-for-27 slump, though, and on the season he has a .159/.219/.295 slash line. Rosario still has a big hole to climb out of, and with Victor Robles healthy again, the competition for outfield/DH at-bats with the Nats has gotten even more crowded.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Belts clutch homer

    Rosario went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk in Wednesday's extra-innings loss to the Orioles.

    The Nationals were down to their last out against Baltimore closer Craig Kimbrel in the ninth inning when Rosario came through with a solo blast to center field to cut the deficit to one. Washington plated another run in the frame to send the game into extra innings, though the team ultimately fell short. The blast was another step in the right direction for Rosario, who recently went through an 11-game, 0-for-27 slump. Since then, the veteran outfielder has gotten at least one hit in four straight games, going 6-for-14 with two homers and four RBI over that span.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Still has manager's confidence

    Rosario has remained a regular in the Nationals' lineup despite his early-season struggles, and manager Dave Martinez hasn't given up on the 32-year-old, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports. "It's early," Martinez said Thursday. "You've got to give him a chance, you really do. I'm not going to sit him down yet right now. He's got to go out there and play. ... I've seen him play before. This kid can hit. He can put you on his shoulders."

    At the moment, Rosario is handling the strong side of a platoon in right field while Lane Thomas (knee) is injured, but he's mired in an 0-for-27 slump that has sunk his slash line on the season to .086/.133/.157. Rosario has a history of slow starts, but even his xBA and xwOBA are in the bottom one percent of qualified hitters. Once Thomas gets healthy, the Nats may not be able to afford to stay patient with Rosario, especially with top prospect James Wood also making a strong case for a promotion to the majors.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Takes seat against lefty

    Rosario is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

    The lefty-hitting Rosario once again finds himself on the bench for the third time in four games while the Nationals face another left-handed starting pitcher (Andrew Heaney). Platoon mate Alex Call gets the start in right field while Rosario takes a seat.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Out against lefty again

    Rosario is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Miami.

    With the Nationals facing a left-handed starting pitcher for the second consecutive day, the lefty-hitting Rosario will cede his spot in the lineup to the right-handed-hitting Alex Call. As a strong-side platoon player, Rosario should still see the bulk of the starts in right field while the Nationals are without Lane Thomas (knee) and Joey Gallo (shoulder).

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Hits bench against lefty

    Rosario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Though his playing time against right-handed pitching should be stable for the foreseeable future while Lane Thomas (knee) and Joey Gallo (shoulder) are on the shelf, the lefty-hitting Rosario is still expected to sit regularly versus southpaws. Rosario will hit the bench Sunday with lefty Ryan Weathers on the hill for Miami, paving the way for the righty-hitting Alex Call to draw a start in the corner outfield.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Swipes first bag of year

    Rosario went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 3-1 win over the Marlins.

    Getting the start in right field and batting sixth, Rosario beat out a potential double play in the second inning and promptly stole second base, but he was otherwise quiet on the night. The steal was the first of the campaign for the veteran outfielder, and given that he went 3-for-7 on SB attempts for Atlanta in 2023, he's unlikely to make much of an impact in that category. Rosario isn't doing much with his bat, either -- despite consistent playing time, he's slashing a woeful .100/.141/.183 through 64 plate appearances with one homer, three RBI and three runs.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Sits versus southpaw

    Rosario is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: On bench against lefty

    Rosario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Day off versus southpaw

    Rosario isn't in the Nationals' lineup for Saturday's game against Philadelphia.

    The Phillies will send out left-hander Ranger Suarez to start Saturday's contest, keeping the left-handed bat of Rosario in the dugout. His absence will allow Jacob Young to make a start in center field while batting ninth.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Idle versus lefty

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Out against left-hander

    Rosario is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

    He occupied center field in each of the Nationals' first three games versus right-handers, but the lefty-hitting Rosario will seat in favor of Victor Robles while southpaw Marco Gonzales toes the rubber for Pittsburgh. Rosario went 3-for-11 with a home run in the weekend series against the Reds.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Slugs Opening Day homer

    Rosario went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Reds.

    After scoring a .199 ISO against RHP last season, Rosario continued to mash against righties to open 2024, launching a two-run homer off Emilio Pagan in the seventh inning. While he was a productive piece of a stacked Atlanta offense in 2023, Rosario will likely have a harder time finding RBI opportunities in a sub-par Nats offense.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Gets start in center field

    Rosario will start in center field and bat seventh in Thursday's season opener versus the Reds.

    Rosario hasn't played an inning in center field since 2019 and has never been a regular there at the major-league level, but the Nationals are hoping he can provide enough offense to make up for what's sure to be inadequate defense. Victor Robles will begin the game on the bench.

  • Nationals' Eddie Rosario: Added to big-league roster

    The Nationals selected Rosario to the major-league roster Sunday.

    The 32-year-old was deemed the favorite to start in left field shortly after signing a split contract with Washington in early March, so it's not a major surprise he's made the Opening Day roster. Rosario went just 3-for-18 in seven spring games but was reasonably productive in Atlanta last season with 21 homers and a .755 OPS in 516 plate appearances.
