Exits with injury Rojas was removed from Tuesday's Game 3 of the NLDS due to a leg injury, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Rojas has been playing through an adductor injury since September, and he seemed to aggravate it while running the bases in the third inning Tuesday. If the 35-year-old infielder is forced to miss any additional games, Tommy Edman would likely move to shortstop while Andy Pages fills the gap in center field.

Back in lineup for Game 1 of NLDS Rojas (thigh) is batting ninth and starting at shortstop in Game 1 of the NLDS against San Diego on Saturday.

Impact Rojas sat out the final four games of the regular season after aggravating a left adductor injury, but the team expressed optimism ahead of the NLDS that he'd be back for Game 1. That will indeed be the case Saturday, as Rojas is slated to start at shortstop for Los Angeles. Tommy Edman -- who had been filling in at shortstop in Rojas' stead -- will head back to center field for Game 1, which pushes Andy Pages back to a fourth-outfielder role.

Impact Rojas has been managing the issue for the last few weeks but had been able to play through the adductor injury before suffering a setback while running the bases Wednesday. According to Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times, Rojas is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Thursday to gain a better understanding of the injury, and he'll also receive an cortisone injection to relieve pain in the area. Both Rojas and Roberts are hopeful that by sitting out the next three games, the 35-year-old will be healthy enough to return to the lineup Sunday for one final tune-up before the playoffs.

Departs with injury Rojas was removed from Wednesday's game against the Padres due to an apparent leg injury, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact Rojas seemed to tweak something in his leg while rounding third base and running back to the bag in the fourth inning, and he was replaced on defense once Los Angeles took the field to begin the fifth. The Dodgers will take a closer look at him in the clubhouse and should have more information on the severity of his injury in the near future, though Tommy Edman may be in line for more reps at shortstop if Rojas needs to miss any amount of time.

Hitless in return Rojas (leg) started at shortstop for the Dodgers on Friday and went 0-for-4 in a 6-4 victory versus the Rockies.

Impact Rojas was out of the lineup Wednesday and Thursday while tending to a sore left leg, but he was able to return Friday.

Tommy Edman filled in at shortstop for the two games Rojas missed and will likely resume working mostly in center field with the latter's return.
