Miguel Rojas Pulled With Groin Tightness
3 months agoLos Angeles Dodgers shortstop Miguel Rojas (groin) was pulled from Wednesday's big divisional tilt at Dodger Stadium against the visiting San Diego Padres due to left-groin tightness. Rojas injured his groin and was seen wincing after rounding third base in the fourth inning and then returning quickly to the pack to avoid being thrown out. Before leaving, the 35-year-old veteran defensive whiz went 0-for-1 with a walk. He was replaced at the 6 by Tommy Edman, with Andy Pages entering the game to play center field. Heading into Thursday's series finale against the Friars, Rojas should be considered day-to-day. The Dodgers will take it easy on Rojas through the rest of the week with a playoff spot already locked up, so don't expect to see him in Thursday's lineup. Rojas brings tremendous value with his glove and is also hitting .283 on the year, but he brings limited power and speed on offense.
