Fun fact: Jose Rojas was born in Anaheim. His favorite athlete was former Angels first baseman Mo Vaughn.

I've always really liked Rojas and would love to see him get a chance.  I think the guy would hit and hit well at the major league level.  I also watched him play d and he doesn't really look comfortable anywhere.

1B would be the best option for him defensively. Too bad Walsh isn't an average RF because Rojas at 1B, Walsh in RF would give us a very good offense top to bottom. 

Rojas is slashing .333/.536/.667 with two HR, but damn... 9 BB's to just 2 K's at the plate.

A platoon with Walsh at 1b might work...but we all know who gets the RH  AB’s at 1b...

Eventual part time DH (sharing with Ohtani) and occasion play at other positions?

The Royals message board has lost it's way. The majority of the post subjects isn't baseball but the British Royals: Megan and Andrew, with a little Kate and the Queen thrown in.

[Chuck]

Jose Rojas with a double off the top of the wall and a walk already today. Played a great play at second base already too. 

[ScottT]

Mota and Gubicza are really talking about how winning matters... in spring training and intrasquad games

[tdawg87]

We really gotta extend Bundy.

[ScottT]

Rojas and Schebler are gonna kill it in Salt Lake.

[Chuck]

Wow. Just when you didn't think Adell could get worse in the outfield defensively. 

The ball drops right next to him on the warning track, hops over the fence for a ground rule double in CF for two runs. 

WTF.

Where is his athleticism?

[Make Angels Great Again]

Adell's defensive...I don't even know what to call it, is actually impressively bad at this point.

[Blarg]

He will be in the minors. I'm more concerned they will put Jay on the roster for defense when he can't hit.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Should Lagares be the everyday RF over Fowler?

Or play good defense.  He never has.

[Blarg]

Jeremiah will be in the minors as well.
