Rosario went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a 2-0 win over the Cubs on Friday.
Rosario plated the first run in the low-scoring affair with a 450-foot solo shot to center field in the fourth inning. The utility man went deep on both the first and the last day of July but batted just .148 with no long balls and no RBI while striking out at a horrid 53.6 percent rate over 15 games in between. Rosario has started at third base four of the past five times New York has faced a left-handed starter and appears to be holding down the short side of a platoon at the hot corner with Ryan McMahon.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Back in platoon role
Rotowire
Rosario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
During the final week of June, the utility player had been serving as a near-everyday player for the Yankees, but the returns of Trent Grisham (hamstring) and Ryan McMahon (throat/ear) from the injured list Friday have pushed Rosario back into a short-side platoon role. Rosario has been left out of the lineup for all three games of the weekend series while Minnesota has sent three right-handed starters to the bump.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Goes yard in defeat
Rotowire
Rosario went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-2 extra-innings loss the Tigers.
Rosario went deep for the third time in his past eight games Wednesday. The veteran utility man has started seven consecutive games for the banged-up Yankees, but he could get squeezed for playing time once Trent Grisham (hamstring) and Ryan McMahon (illness) come off the injured list. Through 153 plate appearances, Rosario is slashing .250/.294/.486 with nine homers, four doubles, 27 RBI and 20 runs scored.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Clubs homer off bench Monday
Rotowire
Rosario belted a three-run home run as a pinch hitter in Monday's 7-3 loss to Detroit.
The Yankees were being shut out when Rosario came off the bench to pinch hit for Austin Wells with two runners on base in the eighth inning. The utility man came through with a blast to left-center field to plate the only New York runs in the game. Rosario had made four straight starts prior to Monday, and he could be in store for more opportunities in the lineup moving forward after Jazz Chisholm landed in concussion protocol following a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez in Monday's loss.
Rosario will start at designated hitter and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Rosario will stick in the starting nine for the fourth straight game, though he'll be matching up against a right-hander (Sonny Gray) on Sunday after the Red Sox sent lefties to the hill for the first three contests of the series. Though Ryan McMahon's (throat infection) recent move to the injured list leaves a void at third base, the Yankees could elect to use Jose Caballero at that position on a more frequent basis rather than opening up an everyday role for Rosario.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Not starting versus Skubal
Rotowire
Rosario is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Detroit.
Ace lefty Tarik Skubal is on the bump for the Tigers, marking the first time all season that Rosario has not been in the lineup versus a southpaw when he was on the active roster. Jose Caballero will cover third base for the Yankees.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Clubs homer Monday
Rotowire
Rosario went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in a loss to Detroit on Monday.
With Ryan McMahon getting the day off, Rosario started at third base and batted leadoff. He produced the bulk of New York's runs with a two-run blast in the seventh inning. Rosario has started at the hot corner three of the past four times the Yankees have faced a southpaw starter, so he seems to be in the short side of a platoon with McMahon at the moment.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Back from paternity leave
Rotowire
The Yankees activated Rosario from the paternity leave list Tuesday.
Rosario was away for the final two games of the weekend series versus the Athletics but is back for the start of the series against the Guardians. With lefty Joey Cantillo slated to start for Cleveland on Tuesday, Rosario will likely be in the Yankees' lineup.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Placed on paternity list
Rotowire
The Yankees placed Rosario on the paternity list prior to Saturday's game against the Athletics.
Rosario can be away from the Yankees for up to three days while on the paternity list, meaning he'll likely be back for Tuesday's series opener against the Guardians. The veteran utility man has gone 9-for-31 (.290) with two home runs, seven RBI and six runs scored in 11 games since May 1.

Yankees' Amed Rosario: Mashes two homers Tuesday
Rotowire
Rosario went 4-for-6 with two home runs, three total runs and four total RBI in a 15-1 rout of the Royals on Tuesday.
New York put on an explosive offensive performance in the victory, racking up 24 hits, including six homers. Rosario led the way with his two long balls, both of which were two-run shots. The utility man finished with his first multi-hit game since April 18, and the homer was his first since April 22. Rosario has played sporadically this season but has performed well when called upon, slashing .279/.316/.547 with six homers, 13 runs and 20 RBI over 95 plate appearances.
Yankees' Amed Rosario: Keeps pushing for more playing time
Rotowire
Rosario went 1-for-1 with a three-run home run and an additional RBI in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Red Sox.
Before coming out of the lineup for Ben Rice, Rosario did his damage courtesy of a three-run blast in the opening frame. Rosario was expected to be a short-side platoon player at third base with the lefty-swinging Ryan McMahon in 2026, but the former is soundly outproducing the latter at the plate to begin the year. McMahon has a .464 OPS across 48 at-bats, while Rosario sports an .880 OPS with six extra-base hits and 13 RBI over his 49 at-bats, having found success against both righties and lefties.
Rosario will start at third base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Though he'll remain in the lineup for a sixth straight game while Ryan McMahon takes a seat, Rosario has largely been the beneficiary of the Yankees facing five left-handed starters during that stretch. The 30-year-old has been productive in his part-time role this season, slashing .250/.302/.500 with three home runs, nine RBI and five runs over 53 plate appearances.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: On bench for series finale
Rotowire
Chisholm is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.
The Yankees will send the left-handed-hitting Chisholm to the bench for the second time in five games while the team is in the midst of a stretch that has been heavy on matchups with left-handed starting pitchers. Amed Rosario will step in at the keystone in place of Chisholm, who went hitless in each of his last three starts but drew a combined five walks and added a stolen base.
Rosario went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the A's.
Starting at third base and batting seventh, Rosario was the unexpected hero for the Yankees, launching a solo shot off Aaron Civale in the second inning before ripping an elevated splitter from Mark Leiter into the left-field seats for a game-winning, three-run blast in the eighth. The 30-year-old infielder has made all four of his appearances this season at the hot corner, going 3-for-10 with five total RBI, and with Ryan McMahon struggling early (2-for-23 with a 37.9 percent strikeout rate), Rosario could find his name in manager Aaron Boone's lineup more often.
