The Diamondbacks suffered another major blow on the injury front with presumptive starting 3B Josh Rojas suffering a Grade 2 oblique strain. A Grade 1 oblique issue is typically 27 days for a position player, so we can assume with a more severe injury that Rojas will be out longer than that. Losing Rojas is a big blow, as the team has a gaping hole at the position and were hoping Rojas could fill it.

Drew Ellis

Ellis makes the most sense to see if he survive at this level, as he’s a better defender than Rojas but has major warts at the plate.
