Jake Rogers News
Detroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers is back in the starting lineup Tuesday night against the Cincinnati Reds and left-hander Brandon Williamson. In fact, Rogers is starting out of the cleanup spot for just the fourth time this season, all of which have come over the last month. The slick-fielding backstop has struggled at the plate of late, posting a .608 OPS in the month of August followed up by a .448 OPS and monstrous 44% K% across 25 plate appearances so far in September. His average is down to just .205 on the season, although he does have a healthy 16 homers across 95 appearances. Nonetheless, strikeouts continue to be a major concern with a hefty 35.3% K% across 575 career trips to the plate.
Detroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers (hand) will return to the starting lineup Wednesday versus New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole. Rogers injured his hand on a catcher's interference play last week and has given way to Carson Kelly behind the plate for the first two games of the Tigers' current four-game set with the Yankees. Rogers has flashed some notable power with 15 home runs while boasting an impressive 80th percentile ranking in hard-hit rate while sitting in the 79th percentile in barrel rate. However, the 28-year-old's .203 average and 32.2% K% have his production sitting below league average, as per his 88 wRC+. Nonetheless, Rogers' power makes him a fine fit in two-catcher leagues while making him a solid streaming option in attractive matchups.
Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said that catcher Jake Rogers (hand) doesn't have a broken bone in his left hand and will be available to pinch hit or catch on Tuesday against the visiting New York Yankees. Carson Kelly will make a second straight start behind the dish and bat ninth against Yankees right-hander Michael King. Rogers' hand was hit when he was called for catcher's interference last week and he's receiving a second straight day off on Tuesday. The 28-year-old backstop does have a career-high 15 home runs in 88 games for Detroit this year, but he's also hitting just .203 (53-for-261) with 37 RBI, 11 doubles and 36 runs scored in his 292 plate appearances.
