Sitting out first game Rosario (back) is not in the Guardians' lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Tigers.
Day-to-day with back issue Guardians manager Terry Francona told reporters before Sunday's game against the Nationals that Rosario is day-to-day with a back issue, Byron Kerr of MLB.com reports.
Impact Rosario is out of action for Sunday's contest against Washington with Francona telling reporters the 27-year-old has a "balky" back at this point. Gabriel Arias is hitting second as the starting shortstop against Patrick Corbin and the Nationals, and he'll likely see the majority of reps at the position while Rosario is out.

Takes seat against Nationals Rosario is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Nationals.
Impact Rosario is off to a slow start to the 2023 campaign with a .609 OPS over 69 plate appearances, but this appears to just be a rest day for the 27-year-old shortstop. Gabriel Arias will handle short and hit second in his absence.

Goes deep Wednesday Rosario went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Yankees.
Impact Rosario has struggled at the plate this season, hitting just .204 through 12 contests. His homer Wednesday was his first of the season, and he's added three stolen bases, four RBI and five runs scored. Despite the poor hitting, he's remained in the No. 2 hole in the lineup when he plays. Andres Gimenez was in that spot when Rosario got a day off Tuesday. Myles Straw's also been good early on and could also contend to move up the lineup if manager Terry Francona mixes things up.

Not in Tuesday's lineup Rosario is not in the Guardians' lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Yankees.
Impact It's the first day off of the season for Rosario, as Gabriel Arias will get a start at shortstop. Rosario is batting just .204/.259/.224 so far, although he does already have three stolen bases.

Records third steal Rosario went 0-for-2 with a pair of walks and a stolen base.
Impact The Guardians' Nos. 1-7 hitters failed to record a hit, but they managed seven walks and four steals. Rosario was a contributor in both areas. He's had some positive moments with three multi-hit efforts through 11 games, but the shortstop is slashing a meager .204/.259/.224 through 54 plate appearances. He's added three steals, three RBI and four runs scored, though he's yet to hit a home run.

Guardians rally in 12th inning to beat Mariners 7-6
José Ramírez slid past catcher Cal Raleigh’s tag to score the winning run in the 12th inning, giving the Cleveland Guardians a 7-6 victory over the Seattle MarinersAPRIL 9, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Swipes first bag of year Rosario went 2-for-6 with an RBI and his first stolen base of the season in Friday's 9-4 win over the Mariners.
Impact Cleveland went 3-for-3 on the basepaths in total against Cal Raleigh and Seattle's pitchers, and given the Guardians' speed up and down the lineup, they could be one of the clubs that benefits most from MLB's rule changes to boost the running game. Rosario has hit second in each of the first two games of 2023, and a consistent spot in the lineup between Steven Kwan and Jose Ramirez can only help his fantasy production.
