A 'Reset' Has Been Exactly What This Guardians Hitter Needed

He got to work right after being optioned and immediately started finding success again at the plate, specifically barreling up more balls. Rocchio saw his hard-hit rate jump to 32.4 percent in minor league games, the highest it's ever been at Triple-A.

These improvements on offense left the door open for another MLB stint if the opportunity presented itself.

The organization brought Rocchio back up to the big leagues when Gabriel Arias was carted off the field and diagnosed with a sprained ankle.

Since his recent call-up, Rocchio has a .856 OPS and a 136 wRC+, including multiple clutch hits.

Rocchio drove in three runs during the Houston Astros series and hit two RBI doubles during Cleveland's series opener against the Athletics.

If Rocchio can keep swinging the bat like he has over the last few weeks, it's going to be a massive boost for Cleveland's lineup, giving the Guardians many more options in the infield.

For example, the idea of a Schneemann-Arias platoon at second base while Rocchio manages shortstop is something to potentially get excited about if each player is swinging a hot bat.

Sometimes, all a player needs is time to readjust and reset. So far, that's been exactly the case with Rocchio.
