LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Dodgers have acquired infielder Miguel Rojas from the Miami Marlins in exchange for minor league infielder Jacob Amaya.

Rojas, 33, played in 140 games with Marlins in 2022, hitting .236 with six homers and 36 RBI. He joins the Dodgers for his second career stint after making 85 appearances with the club in 2014 and recording 27 hits in 149 at-bats in his rookie season. He has been in the Majors parts of nine seasons, slashing .260/.314/.358 with 39 homers and 269 RBI while playing five different defensive positions. He was originally signed by the Cincinnati Reds out of Los Teques, Venezuela as an international free agent on November 24, 2005.

Amaya, 24, made 133 appearances in the Dodgers organization last season, hitting a combined .261 with 17 homers and 71 RBI. He began the season with Double-A Tulsa, recording an .870 OPS with nine homers and 26 RBI and finished with Triple-A Oklahoma City with eight homers and 45 RBI. He has been with the Dodgers organization for five seasons, amassing 42 homers and 232 RBI in 463 minor league games. He was originally drafted by the Dodgers in the 11th round of the 2017 First Year Player Draft out of South Hills High School.

NFL Rookies of the Month – December-January

49ERS QB BROCK PURDY & LIONS DL AIDAN HUTCHINSON NAMED NFL ROOKIES OF THE MONTH FOR DECEMBER/JANUARY

Quarterback BROCK PURDY of the San Francisco 49ers and defensive lineman AIDAN HUTCHINSON of the Detroit Lions are the NFL Offensive and Defensive Rookies of the Month for the months of December and January (Weeks 13-18).

OFFENSE: QB BROCK PURDY, SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS

Purdy completed 110 of 161 passes (68.3 percent) over the season’s final six weeks for 1,308 yards and 13 touchdowns with a 112 rating, the highest in the NFL since Week 13, and added a rushing touchdown.

He is the third rookie quarterback ever to win each of his first five career starts joining BEN ROETHLISBERGER (won first 13 starts in 2004) and MIKE KRUCZEK (first six in 1976) and is the second rookie in NFL history with at least two touchdown passes in six consecutive games (JUSTIN HERBERT, seven consecutive games in 2020).

Purdy becomes the first-ever 49er to win Offensive Rookie of the Month honors and is the first quarterback to win the award this season.

He is the first former Iowa State player to win a Rookie of the Month award.

DEFENSE: DL AIDAN HUTCHINSON, DETROIT LIONS

Hutchinson totaled 21 tackles, five tackles for loss, four sacks, a fumble recovery and an interception over the season’s final six weeks. He led all rookie defensive linemen in tackles and was one of three players in the NFL to have multiple sacks and an interception since Week 13.

Hutchinson is the first rookie since 1982, when the individual sack became an official statistic, with at least nine sacks (9.5) and three interceptions (three).

Also earning the honor in November, he is the first Lion to earn Defensive Rookie of the Month honors multiple times and joins MICAH PARSONS (2021), JEREMY CHINN (2020) and DEVIN WHITE (2019) as the most recent rookies to win the award multiple times in a season.

Hutchinson is the only Michigan player to win a Rookie of the Month award multiple times.

Blue Bombers extend contract of offensive tackle Jermarcus Hardrick

WINNIPEG, MB., –   The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has signed American offensive tackle Jermarcus Hardrick to a one-year contract extension. He was scheduled to become a free agent next month.

Hardrick (6-5, 319, University of Nebraska; born: May 30, 1990, in Batesville, MS) returns to the Blue Bombers for a seventh season in 2023. Hardrick started 17 regular season games at right tackle for the Blue Bombers in 2022 and was part of an offence that finished second in offensive points (28.2), first in touchdowns (58), second in rushing yards (113.5) while yielding the second-fewest sacks (29).

Hardrick and the Blue Bombers offensive line played pivotal roles in quarterback Zach Collaros being named the CFL’s Most Outstanding Player for a second consecutive season and the first 1,000-yard rushing campaign in Brady Oliveira’s career.

A consistent presence at right tackle for the Blue Bombers since 2016, Hardrick was a CFL All-Star in 2021 and was named to the CFL Players’ Association All-Star squad in 2022.

He has now appeared in 115 regular season CFL games, including 95 as a member of the Blue Bombers, 12 with the B.C. Lions in 2014 and eight with the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 2015 and was a member of Winnipeg’s back-to-back Grey Cup teams in 2019 and 2021.

Hardrick began his college days at Fort Scott Community College before transferring to Nebraska. He had tryouts with Tampa Bay and New Orleans before coming north to the CFL.
