Player Outlook
The Guardians are one of the cheapest teams in the league, so while Brayan Rocchio doesn't project to perform like an everyday-caliber player in 2024, he may still get those opportunities. The switch-hitting shortstop has been a quality prospect dating back to an impressive pro debut as a teenager in 2018, but despite posting ISO's over .160 and slugging percentages over .425 across High-A and Double-A in 2021 and 2022, his power output has declined steeply since reaching Triple-A and the majors. It's possible he was able to get himself into more hitter's counts that allowed him to swing for the fences more against High-A and Double-A pitching and that has not carried over against pitchers with better control. Aside from limited raw power, Rocchio has a lot going for him. He is an excellent defensive infielder who had an 11.2 percent walk rate and 12.3 percent strikeout rate with 25 steals in 116 games at Triple-A. Barring an offseason acquisition of a more seasoned big-league shortstop, Rocchio could be Cleveland's starter at the position while likely hitting in the bottom third of the lineup.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Getting Monday off

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles. Rocchio will get a breather after he started at shortstop in each of the Guardians' last four games while going 3-for-12 with a double and a walk. Gabriel Arias (personal) was reinstated from the family medical emergency list Monday and will be thrust into the lineup immediately upon his return, replacing Rocchio at shortstop.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Not in Cleveland lineup

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Pops homer Sunday

    Rotowire
    Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, a hit-by-pitch and a second run scored in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Blue Jays. Rocchio's ninth-inning blast got the Guardians within a run, but their comeback effort ended there. He's gone a modest 5-for-22 with two homers and two doubles over his last eight contests. First-year manager Stephen Vogt has stuck with Rocchio as his starting shortstop despite a .213/.315/.306 slash line through 61 contests, and it appears that faith is starting to be rewarded. The 23-year-old has two homers, 13 RBI, 32 runs scored and seven stolen bases.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Getting breather Saturday

    Rotowire

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Cranks first career homer

    Rotowire
    Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Marlins. Rocchio's first career homer came in the third inning of his 77th game. That blast was all the offense the Guardians could put on the board in Friday's loss. The shortstop has held down a starting role this year, but he's posted a mediocre .213/.314/.287 slash line with 11 RBI, 27 runs scored, seven stolen bases and nine doubles over 192 plate appearances.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Sitting out Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Royals. Rocchio has been one of the worst-hitting regulars in baseball this season, sporting a lowly .203/.308/.259 line. He'll receive a day off while Daniel Schneemann holds down shortstop.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Getting day off

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is not in the Guardians' lineup versus the Rockies on Tuesday. Rocchio has just two hits across 22 plate appearances in the last seven games. With Rocchio taking a seat, Gabriel Arias will take over at shortstop and bat ninth.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Notches seventh steal

    Rotowire
    Rocchio went 2-for-4 with one RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Monday's 7-0 win over the Rangers. Rocchio looked decent at the plate in early May, but he went 0-for-11 across three games versus the White Sox over the weekend. The shortstop has at least shown good speed with seven steals on nine attempts this season. He's added a middling .212/.296/.280 slash line with seven RBI, 18 runs scored and eight doubles through 136 plate appearances. Rocchio continues to hold down a starting role and even got a look at leadoff versus a lefty (Garrett Crochet) Friday as the Guardians look for a solution at the top of the order with Steven Kwan (hamstring) sidelined.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Getting rest day

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels. Rocchio went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Saturday's 7-1 win, but he had been turning a corner of late offensively, going 5-for-14 with five walks against three strikeouts while stealing three bases in four attempts over Cleveland's preceding five contests. Gabriel Arias will get the starting nod at shortstop Sunday, but the Guardians are still seemingly viewing Rocchio as their preferred option at the position.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Records fifth steal

    Rotowire
    Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and one run scored in Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Astros. Rocchio is up to five steals on the year, four of which have come over his last six games. In that span, he's hitting .294 (5-for-17) with a 5:6 BB:K and four runs scored. Rocchio is up to a .218/.317/.310 slash line with no home runs, four RBI, 14 runs scored and seven doubles through 102 plate appearances. He continues to hold down the starting job at shortstop while hitting at the bottom of the order.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Swipes two more bases

    Rotowire
    Rocchio went 2-for-3 with two runs scored during Sunday's extra-inning loss to Atlanta. Rocchio provided two of the Guardians' three runs, picking up his first multi-hit game since April 6 (a span of 16 games). The 23-year-old has stolen four bases this season and has scored 12 times in 90 plate appearances. However, Rocchio is still chasing his first big-league homer through 48 games and is slashing .215/.292/.304.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Picks up steal in win

    Rotowire
    Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Red Sox. Rocchio has gone 3-for-12 over his last four contests and continues to see a starting role at shortstop. He's yet to do much with the steady at-bats, slashing .205/.280/.301 with two steals on three attempts, four RBI, 10 runs scored, seven doubles and no home runs through 23 contests. With Gabriel Arias batting .280 in a utility role, it's unclear how much longer Rocchio will go relatively unchallenged for his spot in the lineup.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Heads to bench Sunday

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees. The switch-hitting Rocchio will take a seat in favor of the righty-hitting Gabriel Arias, who gets the nod at shortstop with southpaw Nestor Cortes on the hill. Rocchio had started each of the previous three contests, going 1-for-11 with a double to drop his season-long average to .227.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Sitting out Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's tilt against the White Sox. It's a routine day off for Rocchio, who has now started nine of 11 contests at shortstop for the Guardians this season. Gabriel Arias will get the call at short Tuesday.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Not starting Sunday

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Oakland. Rocchio went 3-for-11 with three doubles, two RBI and two runs while starting the first three games of the season, but he'll head to the bench Sunday. Gabriel Arias will man shortstop and bat ninth in the series finale.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Competing for starting spot

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is competing with Gabriel Arias for the Guardians' starting shortstop job, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports. Both Rocchio and Arias are inexperienced options, and while Arias struggled at the plate in 2023, Rocchio wasn't much better. The 23-year-old batted .247 with a .600 OPS, eight RBI, nine runs scored and six doubles over 86 plate appearances. This is one of the more even battles for Cleveland, though Rocchio has a full season of Triple-A ball under his belt and will need to be tested in the majors in the near future.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Optioned to Triple-A

    Rotowire
    The Guardians optioned Rocchio to Triple-A Columbus on Thursday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports. Rocchio was recalled from Columbus on Aug. 2 and slashed .271/.308/.354 through 52 plate appearances during his latest stint in the majors. He'll be replaced on the active roster by Cam Gallagher (concussion), who returned from the 7-day injured list Thursday, but Rocchio could make a quick return to the majors once rosters expand in September.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Not in Tuesday's lineup

    Rotowire
    Rocchio is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Dodgers. Rocchio and Gabriel Arias have shared the shortstop job for the Guardians since the trade of Amed Rosario, and it will be Arias at the position for this one after Rocchio had started four of the previous five games there. The 22-year-old Rocchio has collected a .610 OPS over 18 games for Cleveland this season.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Posts three hits in loss

    Rotowire
    Rocchio went 3-for-4 in Wednesday's 7-2 loss to the Reds. Rocchio has multiple hits in three of his last seven games, though this was the first time he was in the lineup since Saturday. The shortstop is batting .288 with a .674 OPS, no home runs, four RBI, six runs scored and no stolen bases through 55 plate appearances. With Jose Tena optioned to Triple-A Columbus, Rocchio will compete with Gabriel Arias and Tyler Freeman for playing time at shortstop going forward.

  • Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Sitting Sunday

    Rotowire
    Rocchio isn't in the Guardians' lineup Sunday against the Rays. Rocchio is batting .304 (7-for-23) over his last seven games and will sit out Sunday's series finale after an 0-for-4 effort Saturday. Jose Tena will draw the start at shortstop instead and bat ninth, and Gabriel Arias will start at third base.
