2025 Player Outlook

As the team's primary shortstop in 2024, Rocchio slashed .206/.298/.316 with eight home runs, 50 runs scored, 36 RBI, and 10 stolen bases. While he plays a solid defensive shortstop, his presence in the box is not quite as impressive, as he posted a first percentile hard hit rate, first percentile xSLG, and second percentile average exit velocity. He needs a lot of volume (AKA at-bats) to accumulate his stats, and his excellent glove work will buy him time before Cleveland would even think to make a switch. He should be better than last year in terms of his batting average, and he'll have an opportunity to be a member of the 10/10 club. However, outside of deeper AL-only setups, you likely won't be looking at Rocchio.
