Rogers could see some time at DH this year on days that Carson Kelly starts behind the plate, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. With Detroit only carrying two catchers on the roster, conventional wisdom would suggest that one of Rogers or Kelly would always be on the bench to provide depth if needed. However, manager A.J. Hinch suggested that both backstops could play at the same time, particularly against left-handed pitchers. This would be a boon for Rogers, who is expected to cede a decent amount of playing time to Kelly behind the dish.... See More ... See Less

Tigers' Jake Rogers: May cede playing time
Carson Kelly is expected to play often this season, per Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic, which could cut into Rogers' role. Rogers should still see the majority of the playing time behind the plate after clubbing 21 home runs a season ago, but he may be at risk of sitting fairly regularly, especially if Kelly plays well. Even in something of a timeshare, Rogers offers fantasy upside due to his power potential, though he's unlikely to contribute much in the batting average category given his free-swinging approach....

Tigers' Jake Rogers: Hits first spring home run
Rogers went 2-for-2 with a solo home run in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles. The home run was the first for Rogers this spring, and he's now batting .250 with a robust .931 OPS in Grapefruit League play. Rogers is locked in as Detroit's starting catcher, and after hitting 21 long balls last year, there's some fantasy upside due to power potential. However, he also will likely continue to have a low batting average and high strikeout rate as an all-or-nothing type slugger.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: On bench Saturday
Rogers is not in the lineup Saturday against the Guardians. Rogers will sit in the penultimate game of the season after going 2-for-4 against the Guardians on Friday. Barring an appearance off the bench, he will finish with a slash line of .297/.531/.849 and five home runs in September. Carson Kelly will start behind the plate and bat ninth.... See More ...

Tigers' Jake Rogers: Pops 21st home run
Rogers went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's suspended game against the Royals, which resumed Thursday. Rogers hit his 21st home run of the season in the eighth inning as he continues to increase his career-best total. He came into the year with 10 total long balls in his first two MLB campaigns. Heading into 2024, Rogers has established some fantasy value due to his power potential and his role as Detroit's top catcher, though his upside is capped due to his high strikeout rate and perennially low batting average....

Tigers' Jake Rogers: Sitting Thursday
Rogers isn't in the Tigers' lineup Thursday against Kansas City. Rogers will get a breather Thursday after going 1-for-4 with a homer and two RBI in his previous game. Carson Kelly will get the nod behind the dish and bat eighth while Rogers is out.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Not in Tuesday's lineup
Rogers is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's tilt versus the Royals, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports. He has now yielded to Carson Kelly in four of the last six contests. September has been one of Rogers' best offensive months to this point, as he's put up an .810 OPS with four home runs.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: On bench again Saturday
Rogers is not in the lineup Saturday against the Athletics. Rogers gets back-to-back days off after going 0-for-4 during Thursday's win over Oakland. Carson Kelly will start behind the dish in his place and will bat eighth.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Sitting Friday
Rogers isn't in the Tigers' lineup Friday against the Athletics. Rogers will get a day off Friday after going 0-for-4 during Thursday's win over Oakland. Carson Kelly will start behind the plate in Rogers' place and bat eighth.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Takes seat Wednesday
Rogers is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Dodgers. Carson Kelly will start at catcher and bat ninth for the visiting Tigers. Rogers went 2-for-8 with a homer and three RBI across the first two games of the three-game series.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Goes yard again
Rogers went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's 8-3 loss to the Dodgers. Rogers' fifth-inning blast was all the run production the Tigers could muster against Lance Lynn and the Dodgers' bullpen. With four homers over his last three games, Rogers is locked in at the plate -- he's also hit safely in his last six contests. He's the eighth catcher to reach the 20-homer mark this season, doubling his total from the last two years combined. The 28-year-old is slashing .221/.288/.451 with 47 RBI, 46 runs scored and a stolen base through 100 contests.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Resting Saturday
Rogers is not in Saturday's lineup against the Angels. Rogers had started six of the team's last eight games, and he had eight hits across 24 at-bats in that span. He'll get a routine day of rest with Carson Kelly taking over behind the dish while hitting eighth.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Launches 16th home run
Rogers went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Yankees. Rogers went deep in the third inning, giving him 16 home runs for the season. The catcher has been struggling this month with just a .172 batting average, though he has gone deep four times in 20 games. Rogers also has a pretty firm grip on the starting job behind the plate with Eric Haase no longer around. Carson Kelly was signed as a depth option but doesn't offer much of a threat to cut into Rogers' playing time.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Returns to lineup
Rogers (hand) will start at catcher and bat ninth Wednesday versus the Yankees in his return to the lineup, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. Rogers has dealt with a minor hand issue recently, though he had been available off the bench the past two days. He will catch for starting pitcher Brendan White in Wednesday's contest while Carson Kelly retreats to the bench.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Available despite hand issue
Rogers is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees due to left hand inflammation, though he's expected to be available off the bench, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. It's the second straight absence for Rogers, who suffered the injury last week when his hand was struck on a player where he found guilty of catcher's interference. It doesn't appear to be a serious concern, and the 28-year-old could rejoin the starting nine within the next couple of days. Carson Kelly is receiving his second straight start behind the plate Tuesday for Detroit.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Resting Monday
Rogers is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees. Rogers will get a break in the Tigers' series opener with the Yankees after he started at catcher in four of the previous five contests. Carson Kelly will step in behind the dish and form a battery with starting pitcher Reese Olson.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Heads to bench Monday
Rogers is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs. Rogers will take a seat for the series opener to make room in the lineup for Carson Kelly, who is making his Tigers debut after signing with the team over the weekend. Kelly (.581 OPS, 58 wRC+ in 92 plate appearances) didn't fare much better during his time with the Diamondbacks this season than Eric Haase did (.530 OPS, 44 wRC+ in 282 plate appearances) had with Detroit prior to being waived, so Rogers' standing atop the depth chart at catcher shouldn't be seriously threatened....

Tigers' Jake Rogers: Sitting out nightcap
Rogers is absent from the lineup for the second game of Friday's doubleheader in Cleveland, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. Rogers cranked a solo home run and added a single in the first game, but even with that big performance he was never going to catch both ends of a doubleheader. Eric Haase will be behind the dish for Joey Wentz.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Heads to bench
Rogers will sit Saturday against Boston. Rogers' lopsided .211/.286/.439 slash line is good for a respectable 98 wRC+, and his 14 homers tie him for 10th among all catchers. Eric Haase will take over behind the plate Saturday.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Jake Rogers: Goes deep Tuesday
Rogers went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Twins. Rogers continues to increase his career high in home runs, as he now has 14 this season, which is four more than he had in his entire career coming into the year. The catcher also struck out again Tuesday, something he's doing 33 percent of the time this season. Rogers will likely remain a boom-or-bust option the rest of the way given his all-or-nothing approach at the plate.... See More ... See Less

Evan Woodbery@evanwoodbery19H agoA.J. Hinch didn't tip his hand on the starting lineup, but he said there will be no special consideration because it's Opening Day. "We're trying to beat their starter." That likely means that one or more of the Tigers' left-handed regulars will come off the bench.
-
Evan Woodbery@evanwoodbery19H agoInteresting tidbit from A.J. Hinch: "As early as this week, you'll see both catchers in the lineup at the same time." I'm assuming that means Jake Rogers or Carson Kelly could pinch-hit against a left-handed reliever...or maybe even start at DH at times against a lefty?
