Rogers is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Eric Haase will do the catching for Alex Faedo after Rogers started the last two games and homered in Tuesday's contest. Rogers has gone deep twice so far in August to push his season total to 14.

Rogers went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers continues to increase his career high in home runs, as he now has 14 this season, which is four more than he had in his entire career coming into the year. The catcher also struck out again Tuesday, something he's doing 33 percent of the time this season. Rogers will likely remain a boom or bust option the rest of the way given his all-or-nothing approach at the plate.

Rogers recorded a pinch-hit home run in Wednesday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers took a seat to begin the game, with Eric Haase getting the start behind the plate, but the former made an impact in his lone at-bat during the eighth inning. Rogers now has 13 home runs and a .748 OPS this season, compared to just three long balls and a .506 OPS for Haase. The superior offensive performance should keep Rogers in the lineup most days moving forward.

Rogers went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Tuesday's extra-inning loss to the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers hit a solo home run in the fifth inning, his 12th of the year, then delivered an RBI single during a four-run ninth inning rally. He's now sporting a .760 OPS, which is well ahead of Eric Haase's .529 mark. That should allow Rogers to stick as Detroit's primary catcher, with Haase available to spell him and also play some in the outfield.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
The Tigers' catching situation has turned into more of a timeshare coming out of the All-Star break, as Rogers and Eric Haase have now picked up two starts apiece. Rogers is regarded as the superior defender and owns an .883 OPS since the beginning of June, so consider him Option 1A for the time being.
