Tigers Depth Chart
Jake Rogers News
Detroit 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.

Jake Rogers Good To Go For Game 5, X-Rays On Hand Come Back Negative
Detroit 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.

Jake Rogers Gets X-Rays On Wrist After Game 4
Detroit 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.

Jake Rogers Plates Seven In Offensive Onslaught
Detroit 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.

Jake Rogers Crushes Grand Slam In Toronto
Detroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers blasted his seventh home run of 2024 on the road against the Blue Jays on Saturday. Rogers started the scoring in a six-run sixth inning that saw Detroit go up 7-0. His only hit of the afternoon was a doozy. With the bases loaded and nobody out, the Tigers backstop blasted a 391-foot rocket to left field off reliever Trevor Richards. Homer-less throughout July, the 29-year-old has been looking to get his power stroke back after hitting 21 homers in 2023; this is a step in the right direction, but he is mainly an option for deep two-catcher formats.

Jake Rogers Homers Twice In Monday's Win
Detroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers provided all of his team's offense in Monday's 2-1 win over the Rangers. Rogers went 2-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs. The 29-year-old took Nathan Eovaldi deep to tie things up in the third inning and put his team ahead in the eighth with another HR off of Jose Leclerc. Rogers' season stats may not stand out, but he has hit well lately, batting .421 with four extra-base hits in his last seven games. Rogers is currently rostered in just one percent of leagues, making him worth a look in deeper two-catcher leagues.

Jake Rogers Re-Enters Starting Lineup Tuesday
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.

Jake Rogers Back In The Lineup Wednesday
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.

Jake Rogers Available Off The Bench Tuesday
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.

Jake Rogers On The Bench Wednesday
Detroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers is out of the starting lineup Wednesday night against the Minnesota Twins and right-hander Bailey Ober. Rogers helped steer the Tigers to a 6-0 victory on Tuesday night with a seventh-inning solo home run as he continues to establish himself as one of the better overall catchers in the American League. While he's hitting just .214, Rogers has 14 home runs, a 9.7 BB%, and a .741 OPS in 76 appearances, good for a 103 wRC+. Add in his elite defense behind the plate and Rogers' 2.0 fWAR ranks eighth among catchers with at least 240 plate appearances and fourth in the American League. The 28-year-old's encouraging season could put him on the fantasy radar in 2024 while he's already an asset in two catcher leagues.
