Eddie Manuel Rosario, Jr. (born September 28, 1991) is a Puerto Rican professional baseball left fielder for the Atlanta Braves of Major League Baseball (MLB). He has previously played in MLB for the Minnesota Twins, Cleveland Indians, and Washington Nationals.

Rosario was selected by the Minnesota Twins in the fourth round of the 2010 MLB draft. After the 2013 season, he received a 50-game suspension for using a banned substance, which he served at the start of the 2014 season.[1] Rosario made his MLB debut with the Twins in 2015, hitting a home run, on the first pitch of his first career at bat. He was named National League Championship Series MVP and won the World Series with the Braves in 2021. Rosario has represented Puerto Rico in the 2013, 2017, and 2023 editions of the World Baseball Classic, winning a silver medal in his first two appearances.[2][3]
