Haase went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in a 3-2 victory over the Twins on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Haase went deep off Dylan Bundy for his 13th home run of the season. The 29-year-old catcher had hit 22 home runs last season, so this year's numbers represent a dropoff in power production. However, Haase did raise his average and OBP this season and has a slash line of .257/.310/.441 in 311 at-bats.

Haase is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Haase and Tucker Barnhart have both picked up three starts apiece at catcher over the past six games, and the timeshare arrangement between the two could be in place for the remainder of the season. The Tigers have occasionally deployed Haase at designated hitter on his non-catching days, but Miguel Cabrera's recent return from the injured list could close the door on Haase picking up occasional starts at DH.
