Sun Jun 1514:30Eddie Rosario Released by Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Eddie Rosario has opted out of his minor league deal and has been released on Sunday. Rosario only lasted a few weeks with the Brewers before deciding to head back into free agency. Rosario has only played in a handful of games this season between his time with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Atlanta Braves. The 33-year-old will look to catch on elsewhere and hopefully join a big league roster.

Fri May 913:19Braves Designate Eddie Rosario For Assignment
The Atlanta Braves announced on Friday that they designated veteran outfielder Eddie Rosario for assignment to make room for infielder Luke Williams on the 40-man roster after they selected his contract from Triple-A Gwinnett. Rosario began the 2025 season with the Los Angeles Dodgers but only played two games with them before signing a one-year deal with Atlanta last month. The 33-year-old left-handed hitter played just three games for the Braves. He went 1-for-8 with a run scored and two strikeouts in his five games with the Dodgers and Braves. It remains to be seen if he'll latch on with another team this season, but if he does, don't expect him to be anything more than a left-handed bat off the bench at the major-league level. Rosario slashed .175/.215/.316 with 10 home runs, 35 RBI and nine steals in 91 games last year with the Braves and Washington Nationals.

Mon Apr 2813:12Braves Sign Eddie Rosario, Option Jarred Kelenic To Triple-A Gwinnett
Per the team, the Atlanta Braves have optioned outfielder Jarred Kelenic to the Triple-A Gwinnett Stripers and signed outfielder Eddie Rosario to a major-league contract in a corresponding move. Kelenic, a former first-round pick, hasn't gotten it going at the big-league level, and he's started 2025 incredibly poorly. Despite a hit in four of his last six appearances, the 25-year-old is slashing a disastrous .167/.231/.300 over 60 at-bats (ten hits). Rosario signed a minor-league deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers a few months back and went 1-for-4 in his only two appearances with LA roughly ten days ago. He projects to platoon for Atlanta in the outfield for now.

Sat Feb 1515:43Dodgers Sign Eddie Rosario To Minor-League Deal
According to Ari Alexander of KPRC2, the Los Angeles Dodgers have signed outfielder Eddie Rosario to a minor-league contract. Rosario spent time with the Washington Nationals and the Atlanta Braves during the 2024 campaign. However, he had the worst season of his 10-year MLB career as he held a .175/.215/.36 slash line. He hit just 10 home runs and swiped nine bags across 91 contests. He drew walks at a poor 5.0 percent rate and struck out at a high 24.1 percent rate. This was a sharp drop from the .255/.305/.450 line and 21 long balls he hit during the 2023 campaign. Given the depth on the Dodgers roster, fantasy managers should expect Rosario to open the campaign at the Triple-A level. If he does bounce back in spring training, he could compete for playing time alongside Andy Pages and James Outman.

Sun Aug 25 202412:07Eddie Rosario Released By Mets
New York Mets outfielder Eddie Rosario, who had been playing with Triple-A Syracuse, was released by the team on Sunday. The Mets signed Rosario to a minor-league deal on Aug. 13 and have already moved on after he went 3-for-29 (.103) with a homer, two RBI and eight strikeouts in seven games played at Syracuse. The 32-year-old left-handed-hitting veteran also hit a combined .175/.215/.316 with 10 home runs, 35 RBI and nine stolen bases in 319 plate appearances over 91 games with the Washington Nationals and Atlanta Braves this year. It's been a steep fall for Rosario, who last year hit .255/.305/.450 with 21 home runs and 74 RBI in 142 games with the Braves. If he latches on with another team before the end of the 2024 season, it will be his fourth club of the year.

Thu Aug 8 202409:37Braves Designate Eddie Rosario For Assignment
The Atlanta Braves announced Thursday that they have designated outfielder Eddie Rosario for assignment. Rosario spent 24 games with Atlanta after starting the season with the Washington Nationals. With the Braves, Rosario turned in a slash line of .154/.181/.282 with three homers and nine RBI. The 32-year-old struggled in his second go-around with the Braves and will look to catch on with a new team. It would be hard to imagine Rosario being fantasy-relevant even if he were to find a new opportunity.

Mon Jul 8 202419:51Eddie Rosario Back In Big Leagues With Braves And Starting Monday
The Atlanta Braves selected the contract of outfielder Eddie Rosario from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday and optioned outfielder Luke Williams to Gwinnett in a corresponding move. The Braves also designated outfielder J.P. Martinez for assignment. Rosario is starting in left field and is batting seventh for Atlanta in Monday's series opener against the hosting Arizona Diamondbacks and rookie right-hander Yilber Diaz, who will be making his major-league debut. The 32-year-old veteran will give Atlanta more outfield depth with Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee) out for the season and Michael Harris II (hamstring) on the injured list. Rosario hit just .183/.226/.329 with seven homers, 26 RBI and eight steals in 67 games with the Nationals in 2024 before being cut, but he clubbed 21 home runs and drove in 74 in 142 games for the Braves just last year. Expect Rosario to be a platoon option back in Atlanta moving forward against right-handed pitching.

Fri Jul 5 202416:37Eddie Rosario Returns To Atlanta
After being designated for assignment and subsequently released by the Washington Nationals this week, veteran outfielder Eddie Rosario signed a minor-league deal to return to the Atlanta Braves on Friday. Rosario is being assigned to Triple-A Gwinnett and will join the Stripers on Friday. The 32-year-old Puerto Rican outfielder just never got things going with the Nats, slashing .183/.226/.329 with seven home runs, 26 RBI, eight stolen bases and 26 runs scored in 219 at-bats. Rosario hit .255 (122-for-478) with 21 home runs and 74 RBI last year for Atlanta in 142 games, though, so it's not a big surprise they'd be interested in a reunion, especially with Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee) out for the year and Michael Harris II (hamstring) on the injured list. Rosario should resurface in the big leagues in the second half in Atlanta as a platoon outfield option for the Braves against right-handers.

Wed Jul 3 202412:24Nationals Release Eddie Rosario
The Washington Nationals requested unconditional release waivers on outfielder Eddie Rosario on Wednesday after designating him for assignment earlier this week to make room on the active MLB roster for top prospect James Wood. Rosario is now free to sign with any team and should latch on with another organization as a veteran left-handed-hitting platoon outfielder. The 32-year-old won't be guaranteed any kind of playing time wherever he lands, especially after slashing just .183/.226/.329 with a .555 OPS, seven home runs, 26 RBI, eight stolen bases and 26 runs scored in 219 at-bats this year in Washington. The Puerto Rican outfielder is only a year removed from hitting .255/.305/.450 with 21 home runs and 74 RBI in 142 games for the Atlanta Braves in 2023.

Mon Jul 1 202412:17Eddie Rosario Designated For Assignment
The 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.

Fri May 3 202412:33Nationals Not Giving Up On Eddie Rosario
Washington Nationals outfielder Eddie Rosario is hitting .086 in 23 games so far this year, including an 0-for-2 performance with two strikeouts in Thursday's loss to the Texas Rangers. Despite his slow start, manager Dave Martinez plans to stick with the nine-year big-leaguer who has a history of struggling at the plate in March and April. "It's early," said Martinez. "You've got to give him a chance, you really do. I'm not going to sit him down yet right now. He's got to go out there and play. I've seen him play before. This kid can hit. He can put you on his shoulders." The 32-year-old is a career .265 hitter, but he's hit just .205 in March and April. But Rosario's average exit velocity (88.6 mph) and hard-hit rate (38.5%) are below league average, and fantasy managers in deeper leagues shouldn't have the same patience as Martinez.

Sat Apr 6 202412:30Eddie Rosario, Luis Garcia Jr. Sitting Versus Lefty
Washington Nationals outfielder Eddie Rosario and second baseman Luis Garcia Jr. are both sitting on Saturday with the team taking on a left-handed pitcher against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies. Rookie outfielder Jacob Young will start in center field and bat ninth, while Ildemaro Vargas is playing the keystone and hitting seventh versus Phillies southpaw Ranger Suarez. The 32-year-old Rosario probably isn't going to play much against lefties in his platoon role in D.C. in 2024, so this shouldn't be a big surprise. Garcia, 23, is hitting .368 (7-for-19) with a league-leading five doubles, but the Nats also want to pick and choose their spots with the young infielder this year. It's hard to recommend either Vargas or Young in DFS contests while at the bottom of Washington's lineup on Saturday.

Mon Apr 1 202416:05Eddie Rosario, Joey Gallo Out Versus Lefty
Washington Nationals outfielders Eddie Rosario and Joey Gallo and second baseman Luis Garcia are all on the bench on Monday with the team facing a left-hander in Pittsburgh Pirates southpaw Marco Gonzales. Victor Robles is getting the start in center field and is batting ninth, Joey Meneses is starting at first base and batting third, and Ildemaro Vargas is at the keystone and hitting seventh. Rosario started the first three games of the year for the Nats in center field and went 3-for-11 with a home run over the weekend. Gallo also started each of the team's first three games against right-handed pitchers and went hitless in 12 at-bats with six strikeouts. The 30-year-old slugger is unlikely to play much against lefties in 2024. Garcia went 2-for-11 with a walk and four strikeouts in the first three games of the year.

Sun Mar 24 202412:29Eddie Rosario Breaks Camp With Nationals
After reassigning outfielder Eddie Rosario to minor-league camp on Saturday in a procedural move, the Washington Nationals selected both he and outfielder Jesse Winker to the major-league roster on Sunday. Given the lack of experienced options in the outfield for the rebuilding Nationals in 2024, Rosario was signed earlier this month to give the team a stable left-field presence. He could get off to a slow start this year after going just 3-for-18 in his seven Grapefruit League games, but don't ignore the power-hitting left-hander in NL-only leagues just because in D.C. The 32-year-old veteran Puerto Rican slugger might not be much to look at against left-handers, but he did manage 21 home runs and 74 RBI in 142 games played last year for the Atlanta Braves.

Sat Mar 23 202412:22Eddie Rosario Sent To Triple-A
Washington Nationals outfielder Eddie Rosario has been reassigned to Triple-A Rochester on Saturday, but it's a procedural move. The Nationals have until noon on Sunday to add Rosario to their 40-man roster. The move doesn't mean Rosario still can't make the Opening Day roster out of camp. If the 32-year-old left-handed-hitting veteran makes the team, he'll make $4 million in the majors, plus incentives. After signing with Washington on March 6, Rosario has hit just .167 with three RBI and four walks in 18 Grapefruit League at-bats. Still, given the nature of the Nationals' rebuilding roster, Rosario could make the big-league roster and at least serve in a platoon role against right-handed pitching in their outfield in 2024. That would make him fantasy relevant in NL-only leagues for his pop.

Wed Mar 6 202412:30Nationals Agree With Eddie Rosario On Split Contract
The Washington Nationals agreed with free-agent outfielder Eddie Rosario on a split contract on Wednesday. The deal could earn Rosario up to $4 million in 2024 with incentives. The deal is pending a physical, according to sources. The 32-year-old veteran outfielder has a good shot of cracking Washington's major-league roster in the midst of their rebuild, and he could be on the strong side of a platoon in the outfield or at designated hitter while facing right-handed pitching. His signing is bad news for both the left-handed-hitting Jesse Winker and right-handed-hitting Stone Garrett, who is coming of a serious leg injury in 2023. Rosario played in 142 games with Atlanta last year and hit .255/.305/.450 with 21 homers and 74 RBI in 516 plate appearances. He'll be an option for outfield depth for his power in deep-mixed and NL-only leagues if he's playing regularly in D.C.

Sun Nov 5 202320:04Braves Expected To Decline Option On Eddie Rosario
Atlanta Braves outfielder Eddie Rosario is likely going to be a free agent this week. The organization is reportedly leaning towards declining Rosario's $9 million club option for the 2024 season. The team hasn't officially declined it yet, but are expected to do so ahead of Monday's deadline. The 32-year-old was a key piece to the Braves title run in 2021, but hasn't been the same at the plate. He's still effective with 21 home runs and 74 RBI this past season, so he should be able to find a spot on a contending roster.

Thu Oct 12 202316:39Eddie Rosario Taking A Seat Versus Lefty In Game 4 Thursday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Eddie Rosario will be on the bench to begin Thursday's Game 4 of the NLDS versus the Philadelphia Phillies and left-hander Ranger Suarez. As has been the case all season long, Rosario will yield left-field duties to the righty-swinging Kevin Pillar against a southpaw starter but it's likely he will enter the game in Pillar's place when his spot comes up against a right-handed reliever. It was a solid season at the plate for the former Twins outfielder who hit .255 with 21 home runs and a .755 OPS across 142 appearances, production that graded out as exactly league average, judging from his 100 wRC+. The 32-year-old has one hit and three strikeouts in six postseason at-bats this fall.

Wed Jul 19 202315:56Eddie Rosario Returning To The Starting Lineup Wednesday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Eddie Rosario is back in the starting lineup Wednesday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks and right-hander Ryne Nelson. Rosario has been out since July 15 due to a hamstring issue but gets back into the lineup looking to bounce back from a tough month of July to this point. The veteran is hitting just .156 with a .541 OPS across 35 plate appearances this month after he broke out with a .325 average and nine home runs across just 23 games in the month of June. He will take his usual spot in left field and hit in the seven-hole Wednesday night in Atlanta.

Tue Jul 18 202316:32Eddie Rosario Remains On The Bench
Atlanta Braves outfielder Eddie Rosario (hamstring) continues to sit out on Tuesday as the team takes on the Arizona Diamondbacks. Rosario is currently dealing with right-hamstring tightness and hasn't played since Saturday. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. With Rosario still out, Sam Hilliard will get the start in left field and will be in the nine-hole against Diamondbacks right-hander Zach Davies. The 31-year-old Rosario is a decent power bat when the Braves are facing right-handed pitching. He's hit .255 (71-for-278) this year with 15 long balls, 44 RBI and 39 runs scored. He's had only 33 at-bats against southpaws and is surprisingly hitting .364 (12 hits) against them, but only with three of his 15 homers.
