Amed Rosario (knee) will start at shortstop and bat leadoff in Saturday’s Grapefruit League game against the Mets, per team updates, after sitting out since Wednesday with a knee issue.
Fantasy Impact
Rosario, cleared Saturday after a knee tweak sidelined him since Wednesday, posts a .240/.240/.280 line with two RBI this spring, vying for a Nationals bench role. The 29-year-old’s versatility could earn him spot starts. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues might roster him for utility flexibility if he secures a consistent gig.
Amed Rosario was a late scratch from the lineup for Wednesday’s Grapefruit League game against the Astros after his knee “didn’t feel right” during defensive drills, per team reports.
Fantasy Impact
Rosario stepped aside—Cayden Wallace took second base and the eight spot—downplaying the knee as a small nag, saying he’d gut it out in the regular season; it’s a blip, not a bust. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can keep his multi-position utility locked; he’s shrugging this off for now.
Amed Rosario has agreed to a one-year, $2 million deal with the Washington Nationals.
Fantasy Impact
The 29-year-old heads to Washington after spending time with the Rays, Dodgers, and Reds in 2024. He will likely play a role off the bench for the Nationals in 2025.
Amed Rosario has been designated for assignment by the Cincinnati Reds.
Fantasy Impact
Rosario played in 22 games with the Reds at the end of last season, hitting .158 with a .397 OPS. He'll be on the hunt for a new team in 2025 after hitting .280 with a .686 OPS in 2024 as a whole.
Amed Rosario is out of the starting lineup for the Reds Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Rosario will head to the bench for the series opener with the Pirates. Jake Fraley will start in right field and bat seventh.
