Rogers went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a grand slam and seven total RBI in Tuesday's 15-1 win over the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
It was an unexpected monster performance for Rogers, who came into the contest mired in a 1-for-23 slump and sporting just a .591 OPS overall. The seven-RBI tally is also a new single-game career high for the catcher. While Rogers provided a huge jolt Tuesday, his fantasy value moving forward will be capped if he continues to split time behind the plate with Dillon Dingler.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers had started behind the plate in the previous two contests, but he'll hit the bench for the series finale with Kansas City while Dillon Dingler handles catching duties. The two backstops could be deployed in a timeshare until one clearly separates himself from the other as the preferred option.

Rogers is out of the lineup Monday against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers had started behind the plate in three of the Tigers' last four games, but he'll be back on the bench for the series opener with Cleveland. Even after the Tigers traded fellow catcher Carson Kelly away to the Rangers on Sunday, Rogers could find himself as the No. 2 backstop for Detroit. The Tigers promoted Dillon Dingler from Triple-A Toledo on Monday, and he'll be put to work right away as the team's starting catcher. Like Rogers, Dingler is regarded as a glove-first catcher, but he might bring more offensive upside to the table after breaking out with a .938 OPS over 301 plate appearances at Toledo this season.

Rogers went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers broke the game open with a grand slam off Trevor Richards in the sixth inning. The long ball was his first since June 29, as he has been sharing catching duties with Carson Kelly. On the year, the 29-year-old is hitting .204 with seven home runs, 20 RBI and 28 runs scored across 199 plate appearances.

Rogers is starting at catcher and batting sixth in Saturday's game against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Carson Kelly got the start in Friday's contest with Rogers on the bench, but the two will flip flop Saturday. To date, Kelly has appeared in 56 games, while Rogers will be at 60 games following his start Saturday. With the two catchers splitting time fairly evenly, their fantasy ceilings will remain capped. Rogers hasn't helped his cause much when he's been in the lineup, as he's sitting with a .597 OPS, down from the .730 mark he posted last year.

Rogers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Rogers is on the bench for the third time in four games to close out of the All-Star break. Carson Kelly will get the nod behind the plate once again Sunday, but the Tigers' catching situation remains fluid. Manager A.J. Hinch will likely ride the hotter bat of the two, and right now, Kelly looks to be the favored option. Kelly will head into Sunday's contest with a seven-game hitting streak.
