Slumping Arizona Diamondbacks utilityman Josh Rojas is heading to the minors.
The Diamondbacks optioned Rojas to Triple-A Reno after Sunday's game with the Cleveland Guardians and recalled outfielder Alek Thomas from Reno on Monday.
Lovullo said Rojas had been working on some mechanical adjustments at the plate but noted that it hadn’t paid off in his results. Rojas had made over 500 plate appearances for the Diamondbacks in 2021 and 2022. Lovullo said Emmanuel Rivera’s progress also played a role in the decision. Rivera is batting .325 with one homer and 17 RBIs in 37 games, primarily at third base.
