Eddie Rosario Designated For Assignment
5 months agoThe Washington Nationals designated veteran outfielder Eddie Rosario for assignment on Monday to make room for top outfield prospect James Wood on the active 40-man roster. Somebody had to go to make room for one of the best prospects in baseball, and it ended up being Rosario, who struggled to a .183/.226/.329 slash line in 219 at-bats this year while also carrying a measly .555 OPS, seven home runs, 26 RBI, eight stolen bases and 26 runs scored for the Nats. The 32-year-old left-handed hitter had an even worse .450 OPS in June to seal the deal. If Rosario clears waivers, he should latch on with another organization looking for a veteran left-handed bat. Rosario still has some pop in his lumber, but his days of contributing regularly for fantasy managers are probably over.
