  • Phillies' Johan Rojas: Swipes two bags

    Rojas went 1-for-3 with a walk, two stolen bases and two runs in Sunday's 11-5 win over the Nationals.

    Rojas stole second base both times he reached, tallying his 10th and 11th pilfers of the campaign. The outing was Rojas' second multi-steal game of his career. Although Rojas' batting average has fallen from .302 to .228 in comparison to last season, he's been much more disciplined at the plate, with his BB/K improving from 0.12 to 0.27 through 40 games.

    Rojas went 3-for-5 with a home run, a run scored, two RBI and a stolen base in Friday's win over the Marlins.

    Rojas knocked an RBI single in the second inning and later swiped second base in the fifth inning. He then went deep with his second homer of the year in the seventh frame. Both long balls have come in his last seven contests after he began the year with a 25-game homer drought. Rojas is slashing .234/.281/.336 with eight steals, 10 RBI and six extra-base hits through 115 plate appearances.

  • Phillies' Johan Rojas: Handed day off Wednesday

    Rojas is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

    Rojas had started in each of the previous three games while going 2-for-11 with a home run and a double, but he'll take a seat for the series finale as Cristian Pache picks up a rare start in center field. Through 91 plate appearances on the season, Rojas has mustered a modest .637 OPS, but his speed (seven steals in eight attempts) and plus defense should give him some stability atop the depth chart in center field.

After starting the year 1-for-22, the 23-year-old Rojas has boosted his slash line to .266/.329/.328 with nine runs scored, three RBI and a team-high seven stolen bases.

  • Phillies' Johan Rojas: Out again Friday

    Rojas is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Pirates, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

  • Phillies' Johan Rojas: Absent from Monday's lineup

    Rojas is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds, Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

  • Phillies' Johan Rojas: Steals base in Friday's start

    Rojas went 0-for-2 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 9-3 loss to Atlanta.

    Getting the start in center field and batting ninth in Philadelphia's opener, Rojas worked a six-pitch walk from Spencer Strider in the fifth inning before stealing second base. The 23-year-old stole 14 bags in 15 attempts in only 59 games last season while slashing .302/.342/.430, but his 5:42 BB:K and .410 BABIP suggest he still has a lot to prove at the plate in 2024 if he wants to hang onto his starting role.

  • Phillies' Johan Rojas: Handling center field Friday

    Rojas is starting in center field and batting ninth in Friday's opener against Atlanta.

    Rojas had a rough spring training, slashing just .170/.214/.264 while working on swing changes. He'll have to provide some value with his bat in order to keep his starting job, but the Phillies have enough confidence in Rojas' defense that he should receive a bit of time to get going.

  • Phillies' Johan Rojas: Still favorite for center field job

    The Phillies are still leaning toward opening the season with Rojas as their center fielder, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

    Rojas is hitting just .156/.174/.267 this spring after the Phillies asked him to make major adjustments to his swing. Despite the results, hitting coach Kevin Long said of Rojas that "I really, really like what I'm seeing from him." If the Phils ultimately decide Rojas would be best off going to the minors for a while, they would slide Brandon Marsh over to center field and put Whit Merrifield in left. However, it sounds like the club still prefers Rojas' elite defense in center, with the hope that he'll make strides at the plate. Perhaps telling is that Marsh has yet to play an inning this spring in center field after returning a week ago from knee surgery. The Phillies are likely to make a decision on their outfield later this week.
