Rogers went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 11-6 loss to the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers is batting just .194 through his first 11 MLB games, but he does have a solid .854 OPS, thanks in large part to the four home runs and seven walks he's picked up. The 24-year-old is Detroit's catcher of the future, and with the Tigers now sitting at 35-81, he should continue to receive ample playing time the rest of the way as the team turns its attention to next season.

Rogers is not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers will get a breather after starting the first two games of the series, with John Hicks taking over Sunday. The 24-year-old Rogers is slashing .182/.308/.455 with three home runs through his first 10 games of MLB action, and the rebuilding Tigers will likely continue to give him plenty of playing time the rest of the season.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
John Hicks will handle the catching duties for Detroit while Rogers rests for the first time in five games since he was promoted from Triple-A Toledo. After opening his big-league career with three hits and two walks over his first two contests, Rogers turned in back-to-back hitless performances, striking out four times across eight at-bats.

Rogers went 1-for-2 with two walks, a solo home run and three runs scored in Wednesday's 9-1 win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Two games in the books, and two impressive performances from Rogers, who hit his first MLB home run Wednesday. The 24-year-old catcher could get a long look down the stretch as the Tigers take stock of what they have heading into next season.

Rogers went 2-for-4 with an RBI in a loss to the Angels on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
In his major-league debut, Rogers drove home the only run of the game for Detroit, knocking in Victor Reyes with a single in the seventh inning. The 24-year-old batted only .250 over two minor-league stops this season but showed some pop, slugging 14 home runs and driving in 52 runs in 252 at-bats.

Rogers' contract was selected from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers has some potential as a catching prospect and is likely to be given plenty of chances to show what he can do down the stretch. Unfortunately for fantasy owners, most of that potential comes on the defensive side of the ball, as he recorded a modest 95 wRC+ in 48 games for Toledo this season. He's still worth a look in deeper formats where any catcher with regular at-bats has value, however. Bobby Wilson was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Rogers will have his contract selected from Triple-A Toledo prior to Tuesday's game against the Angels, Anthony French of the Detroit Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Tigers are expected to waive Bobby Wilson on Tuesday afternoon, clearing the way for Rogers to step in as the team's starting backstop. Though he hasn't been overly impressive at the dish for the Mud Hens this season (.223/.321/.458 slash line over 48 games), he'll be given the opportunity to prove he belongs in the big leagues.

Rogers was promoted to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Tom Reisenweber of the Erie Times-News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers was slashing .309/.439/.556 with five homers and 20 RBI in 26 contests prior to joining the Mud Hens. After hitting just .219 over 99 games with Double-A Erie a season ago, he appears to have found his stroke at the plate.
