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.

Rogers is starting at catcher and batting eighth in Sunday's game against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers will end up starting the bookends of the weekend series, with Eric Haase having picked up the Saturday start behind the plate. If this is any indication, Rogers looks like he still has a slight edge over Haase to begin the post-break part of the schedule, though Haase can also play some in the outfield.

Rogers will sit Saturday against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers has been in good form recently, posting a .960 OPS with five homers in his last 20 games. That led to him starting nine of the last 12 games behind the plate heading into Saturday's contest, but it will be Eric Haase who gets the nod this time around.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.

The Tigers and Athletics are wrapping up their three-game series with a day game after a night game, so Rogers will get a breather after catching the last two contests. Eric Haase will form a battery with starting pitcher Michael Lorenzen.

Rogers went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Sunday's 14-9 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers was steady in June, batting .286 (14-for-49) with four homers over 17 games. He kept his power up in his first contest in July, giving him 11 long balls on the year. The catcher continues to have a slight edge over Eric Haase for playing time, though that could change when the Tigers get some outfielders back from the injured list. Rogers is slashing .203/.304/.473 with 26 RBI, 23 runs scored and seven doubles through 172 plate appearances, and he's hit safely in six of his last seven games.
