19 Miguel Rojas SS

Rojas (hand) is starting at shortstop and hitting seventh Monday against the Giants, Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas is back in action after missing the previous two games with a bruised hand. The 29-year-old, who is hitting just .230/.298/.347 through 70 games this season, will face lefty Andrew Suarez in his first game back.

Rojas (hand) remains out of the lineup Sunday against the Orioles.

Rojas suffered a bruised hand in Friday's outing, and hasn't seen the starting lineup since. The Marlins are traveling across the country from Baltimore to San Francisco to begin a three-game series Monday, so consider Rojas a game-time call for the late-evening contest, provided he doesn't make his way into Sunday's game. In the meantime, JT Riddle will get the start at shortstop, while Yadiel Rivera mans the hot corner.

Rojas sustained a left hand bruise during Friday's game against the Orioles, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas was hit by pitch in the sixth inning and was subsequently replaced by Yadiel Rivera as a pinch runner. Rojas is not in the lineup Saturday but could be utilized as a defensive substitute, and should be available for Sunday's lineup, Fernandez reports.

Rojas is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Orioles, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas went 1-for-1 with a walk and a hit by pitch Friday, but will return to the bench Saturday as he is currently 5-for-55 with one extra-base hit over his last sixteen games. Yadiel Rivera will start at third base and bat ninth for the Marlins.

Rojas is out of the lineup Thursday against the Giants, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

A pleasant surprise for the Marlins through the first two months of the season, Rojas has seen his production fall back to earth since late May. Over his last 14 games, Rojas has recorded only four hits in 50 at-bats, dropping his season batting average from .267 to .228. Brian Anderson, who typically starts in right field, will replace Rojas at the hot corner Thursday. If Rojas fails to get going at the plate in his subsequent starting chances, it may not take long for Anderson to settle in at the hot corner on a permanent basis, likely affording more regular opportunities in the outfield for the likes of Cameron Maybin and J.B. Shuck.
