6 months agoDetroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers (wrist) is behind the dish and is batting eighth for the Tigers in the decisive Game 5 of the American League Division Series on Saturday at Progressive Field against the division-rival Cleveland Guardians and left-hander Matthew Boyd. Rogers left the Game 4 loss early on Thursday with a wrist injury, but he's good to go after an off day on Friday and after X-rays on his wrist came back negative. The 29-year-old backstop hit under .200 in 310 regular-season bats in 2024 with 10 home runs and 36 RBI, so he's not much of an offensive force. However, he's been hot during the playoffs for the upstart Tigers, going 5-for-18 (.278) with a double, RBI, three walks and three runs scored in his first six playoff games. Rogers has only faced Boyd twice in his career and is hitless with a strikeout. He hit just .169 (14-for-83) with one of his 10 homers against lefties during the regular season.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 months agoAccording to Evan Woodbery of MassLive.com, the Detroit Tigers catchers Jake Rogers and Dillon Dingler are expected to split duties during the 2025 season. Rogers spent the entire 2024 season with Detroit and held a .197/.255/.352 line with 16 doubles and 10 home runs. He was graded as an elite defender as he tallied eight blocks above average and was placed in the 91st percentile in framing. Dingler made his MLB debut late in the season and joined the Tigers during their postseason run. Across 27 games, the Ohio State product held a .167/.195/.310 line with one home run. However, at Triple-A, the former second-round selection posted a strong .308/.379/.559 slash line with 15 doubles, 17 long balls, and 52 RBI. While Rogers will likely operate as the No. 1 option, Dingler could be worth a look in deeper AL-only formats as he flashed elite hitting upside at the top level of the minor leagues. If he has a successful spring training, he could even begin to earn a larger share of the starts early into the season.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

6 months agoDetroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers (hand, wrist) told reporters on Friday that he should be good to go Saturday for their pivotal Game 5 against the Cleveland Guardians. Rogers took a few foul balls off his left hand during Game 4 and was pinch hit for in the bottom of the ninth. X-rays came back clean, and he received treatment Friday morning. Rogers said his hand is a little sore but is doing better than expected. His presence won't be much of a boon from a fantasy perspective, as his bat isn't the greatest, but it will be great news for Tigers fans overall, as Rogers has been the only catcher that Game 5 starter Tarik Skubal has pitched to all season. Any change to the presumptive AL Cy Young winner's secret sauce in a series finale may not be the smartest move. DFS managers shouldn't expect much value out of Rogers at the plate, though his value behind the plate will be much greater to Skubal and Tigers fans alike.--Kevin Larson - RotoBaller

6 months agoDetroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers was seen after Thursday's ALDS game with his left wrist and forearm wrapped. He also underwent x-rays to determine the severity of the injury. Rogers played all nine innings at catcher, but was pinch-hit for in the bottom of the ninth. The Tigers will not have more details until Friday, but if Rogers can't play in Game 5 they will likely turn to rookie Dillon Dingler behind the dish. It would be a big spot for the 26-year-old, who only has 84 big-league at-bats.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller

8 months agoDetroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers played a large part in Tuesday's 15-1 win over the Mariners. Rogers went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a grand slam, and seven RBI. The 29-year-old capped off a big fourth inning, lining a George Kirby fastball over the right-field wall to plate four. While it was a nice game for Rogers, he hasn't provided much fantasy value in the plate appearances he has gotten, slashing .200/.248/.378 with nine home runs, 33 runs scored, and 30 RBI in 245 plate appearances. This has limited his fantasy upside even in deeper two-catcher leagues.--Connelly Doan - RotoBaller
