Rosario went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Red Sox.
Rosario got the Yankees on the board by taking Garrett Crochet deep in the fourth inning. Playing time has been sparse for Rosario since he returned from a collarbone SC joint sprain Aug. 19, as he has played in just eight games over the last nearly four weeks. Overall, he has a .287/.320/.450 slash line with six homers, 21 RBI, 20 runs scored and one stolen base over 59 contests between the Yankees and the Nationals. For now, Rosario doesn't look to be a threat to Ryan McMahon's starting role at third base.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Back from IL
Rotowire
The Yankees reinstated Rosario (collarbone) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.
The utility man is returning from the injured list after missing just the 10-day minimum due to a collarbone SC joint sprain. Rosario likely won't be a consistent presence in the lineup since New York's starting infield is currently healthy, but he should still see semi-regular playing time.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Expected back Tuesday
Rotowire
The Yankees are expected to activate Rosario (collarbone) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
New York cleared a space on the 26-man active roster by optioning J.C. Escarra to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday, and the expectation is that Rosario's activation will be the corresponding transaction. If that happens, Rosario will have spent the minimum amount of time on the IL due to a left collarbone SC joint sprain. Rosario isn't an everyday player with the Yankees, but he gives the team valuable versatility with his ability to play multiple positions in both the infield and outfield.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Shelved with SC joint sprain
Rotowire
The Yankees placed Rosario on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a left collarbone SC joint sprain.
The veteran infielder was one of a trio of bench players the Yankees acquired at the trade deadline, but Jose Caballero is, at least temporarily, the last man standing from that group while Rosario joins Austin Slater (hamstring) on the IL. Rosario's injury isn't considered significant, and he could be ready to return when first eligible Aug. 19, per Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. He's appeared in four games for New York while going 3-for-7 with a double and an RBI.
The Yankees acquired Rosario in a trade with Washington on Saturday in exchange for Clayton Beeter and Browm Martinez, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
Rosario adds considerable versatility to the Yankees' roster, as he has played third base, second base, shortstop and right field this season. Over 47 games with the Nationals prior to the trade, he slashed .270/.310/.426 with five homers, 18 RBI and one stolen base. Rosario has seen more at-bats against lefties than righties this season and has hit southpaws well throughout his career, so he could be an option to at least occasionally spell the newly acquired Ryan McMahon -- who figures to get most of the starts at the hot corner but has struggled to a .599 OPS against left-handed pitchers this season.
Rosario went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 8-2 win over St. Louis.
With his fifth homer of the season, Rosario was able to post at least one hit for the sixth time in his last eight games. The veteran utility man got a chance to face right-hander Andre Pallante on Wednesday, but the former should continue to see the bulk of his playing time versus left-handed pitching. Rosario is batting .305 with three long balls, seven doubles and 10 RBI over 82 at-bats against southpaws while batting just .228 versus righties this year.

Nationals' Amed Rosario: Opens scoring with homer
Rotowire
Rosario went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Dodgers.
Rosario continues to play in a short-side platoon role in the Nationals' infield. His homer Friday was his second in June, but he's gone just 5-for-29 (.172) over 10 games this month. That won't help him push for more playing time in the long run, though he still gets looks against lefties to allow Luis Garcia or Brady House to get rest. Rosario is at a .271/.320/.432 slash line with four homers, 15 RBI, 16 runs scored, one stolen base and seven doubles over 126 plate appearances this season.

Nationals' Amed Rosario: Swats clutch homer
Rotowire
Rosario went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Cubs.
The utility infielder broke open a scoreless tie with his third homer of the season, leading off the bottom of the seventh inning by driving the first pitch he saw from Matthew Boyd into the right-field bullpen. Rosario has been limited mainly to a short-side platoon role at third base of late -- Wednesday's start at third base was his first action since May 25 -- but he's hit safely in nine straight games, and since the beginning of May he's churned out a .366/.409/.610 slash line in 44 plate appearances with four doubles, two homers, five runs and 10 RBI. Jose Tena's been productive as well however, and there's no clear path to a bigger workload for Rosario.

Nationals' Amed Rosario: Recovering from laceration
Rotowire
Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Friday that Rosario is day-to-day after he suffered a left leg laceration when he ran into a table at the team's hotel, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Rosario needed stitches to close the wound and is likely unavailable off the bench Friday in Baltimore. He had drawn three straight starts, but with Luis Garcia back from paternity leave, Rosario's playing time was set to dip even before his injury.

Nationals' Amed Rosario: Getting third straight start
Rotowire
Rosario will start at second base and bat second in Thursday's game against Atlanta.
Rosario will draw a third consecutive start out of the Washington infield, but his run of regular playing time will likely come to an end during this weekend's series in Baltimore. Luis Garcia (personal) is expected to be activated from the paternity list Friday and should take back an everyday role at second base, leaving Rosario to fend with Jose Tena for playing time at third base.

Nationals' Amed Rosario: On base four times Wednesday
Rotowire
Rosario went 3-for-5 with a walk, a double, a run scored and two RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Guardians.
Getting the start at third base against southpaw Logan Allen and batting second, Rosario produced his second three-hit effort in his last three games. The veteran infielder has boosted his slash line on the season to .279/.300/.442 with two homers, one steal, nine RBI and 11 runs in 70 plate appearances, but he remains stuck in a timeshare at the hot corner with Jose Tena.
