Vogt went 2-for-4 with a pair of stolen bases in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt caught the Rockies napping with a steal in the second inning, and he tested his luck again (successfully) in the seventh. The slow-moving catcher doubled his career steal total in just one night. Any fantasy manager desperate enough to play him should enjoy the unexpected surprise, as the 34-year-old may not provide many more -- if any -- stolen bags. Vogt can be relied upon for his solid bat (.264/.311/.492 with 10 homers) as a backup catcher.

Vogt went 1-for-3 with a walk, four RBI and two runs scored Wednesday against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt took Jhoulys Chacin deep in the first inning for this 10th home run of the season. That was the highlight of his big performance, though he added additional RBI with a sacrifice fly and fielder's choice later in the game. While he's gotten more consistent at-bats with the injury to Buster Posey (back) and availability of the designated hitter, Posey is expected to return to the lineup Thursday, the same day the Giants will wrap up interleague play. The end result could mean less consistent playing time for Vogt to close the campaign.

Vogt went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, two runs scored and four RBI in the Giants' 5-4 win over the Pirates on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt drove in four of his team's five runs for the game, smacking a two-run single in the first inning before adding a two-run homer in the fifth. The veteran only has 215 at-bats this season, but he's done well with them, posting a .274/.326/.516 slash line with nine homers, 21 doubles, a pair of triples and 35 RBI.

Vogt went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a pair of singles in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
The steal was Vogt's first since 2014 when he played with the Athletics. He had been caught stealing on his previous four attempts. Vogt was also one of two players to record multiple hits in the low-scoring contest, the other being Dodgers catcher Will Smith. Vogt is now hitting .270/.323/.502 over 211 at-bats this season.

Vogt went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and another RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt crushed a 416-foot, two-run homer off Yu Darvish in the sixth inning to cut the deficit to one, then added an RBI single in the seventh. Unfortunately, the Giants still came up short in the end. Through 74 games this season, the 34-year-old catcher is hitting .283/.340/.527 with seven home runs and 20 doubles.

Vogt went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Friday's loss to the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt tied the game at 5-5 with a two-run homer off Drew Smyly in the sixth inning. He also hit a double in the fourth. Through 67 games this season, the 34-year-old catcher is batting .284/.348/.537 with six home runs, 19 doubles and 22 RBI.

Vogt hit a pinch-hit home run in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt teamed up with Brandon Belt to deliver a pair of pinch-hit homers off of Nick Pivetta in the eighth inning, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Phillies' four-run cushion. The 34-year-old is enjoying a career-best .281/.357/.548 slash line with five homers and 20 RBI over 170 plate appearances. Despite the strong results, Vogt isn't seeing enough playing time stuck behind Buster Posey on the depth chart to generate fantasy appeal outside of deep, two-catcher formats.

Vogt went 3-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI on Wednesday against the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt was one of the few bright spots for the Giants', recording multiple extra-base hits for the third time in his last five starts. He won't earn regular playing time behind the dish with Buster Posey healthy, but he has quietly hit .275/.345/.527 across 148 plate appearances for the season.

Vogt went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, two RBI and a double in Wednesday's 11-8 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt has started three of the last five games and is 5-for-14 with three doubles and two homers in that stretch. The 34-year-old is proving to be a solid backup option to Buster Posey with a .271/.338/.525 slash line in 133 plate appearances.
