Dingler is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Dingler had started each of the last three games but will get Thursday afternoon off, with Jake Rogers entering the lineup. The former has seized the top role behind the plate for the Tigers due to much stronger offensive numbers. Dingler is batting .296 with a .795 OPS, while Rogers is batting only .125 with a .410 OPS.

Dingler is absent from the lineup for Thursday's tilt against the White Sox.

Dingler went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Monday's 13-1 win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Dingler was one of three Detroit players to go deep, including Kerry Carpenter, who crushed three long balls. That effort overshadowed Dingler, but the catcher has been quietly productive all year as he's taken hold of the starting job for the Tigers. The 26-year-old now has six long balls and a .794 OPS this season, compared to no home runs and a paltry .410 OPS for backup catcher Jake Rogers.

Dingler went 3-for-3 with a walk, a home run and three RBI in Friday's 7-5 win over the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
The backstop ended an 18-game homer drought by turning on a Seth Lugo fastball in the second inning, driving it into the left-field bullpen for a two-run shot. Dingler's kept collecting hits even when they weren't leaving the park, and through 79 plate appearances in May he's slashing .338/.380/.473 with nine runs and 10 RBI. Even with Jake Rogers healthy, Dingler is firmly entrenched as the Tigers' No. 1 catcher as he puts together a breakout campaign.
