Player Outlook
Jake Rogers has some clear holes in his game, but he's at least seen regular playing time the last two seasons, which has boosted his fantasy value. After a breakout 2023 in which he sported a .730 OPS and blasted 21 home runs across 107 games, the catcher's production took a step back in 2024. Rogers posted a .607 OPS with only 10 long balls across 102 contests. The glaring hole in his game is the ability to make consistent contact, as Rogers is a career .202 hitter with a nearly 33 percent strikeout rate. Rogers could offset that to some degree if he took more free passes, but he had just a 6.5 percent walk rate last season. As it stands, the 29-year-old profiles as a free swinger who can drive the ball over the fence on occasion but also endure long slumps. There are plenty of more well-rounded catching options in fantasy, though Rogers will maintain some fantasy appeal as long as he's playing most days. Right now, he only has Dillon Dingler around as competition, so Rogers still looks like the clear top option behind the plate in Detroit.

Fantasy News

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Out at least one month

    Rotowire
    Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Wednesday that he expects Rogers (oblique) to be sidelined for at least a month, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Hinch indicated that the timetable he provided was an approximation, but at the very least, it's not going to be a minimum-length stay on the 10-day injured list for the catcher. Dillon Dingler will be the Tigers' primary backstop while Rogers is on the shelf.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Oblique strain forces IL stint

    Rotowire
    The Tigers placed Rogers on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a left oblique strain, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. Rogers tweaked his oblique in the batting cage Tuesday and the team has opted to go ahead and place him on the IL. He will be eligible to return April 18, but it's too soon to know whether Rogers might be activated at that time. Thomas Nido was called up from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move and will serve as Detroit's No. 2 catcher while Dillon Dingler takes over as the team's primary backstop.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Scratched with oblique injury

    Rotowire
    Rogers was scratched from Tuesday's lineup versus the Yankees due to left oblique tightness, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. Oblique injuries often lead to stints on the injured list, although it's not yet clear whether Rogers' is serious enough to warrant a trip to the IL. Dillon Dingler has replaced him in the lineup and would be in line for an uptick in playing time should Rogers miss additional time.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Heading to bench Sunday

    Rotowire
    Rogers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox. Rogers will sit for the day game after he went 2-for-4 while catching all nine innings of Saturday's 7-2 win. Dillon Dingler will replace Rogers behind the dish.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Resting Monday

    Rotowire
    Rogers is not in the Tigers' starting lineup against the Mariners on Monday.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Settles at $2.64 million

    Rotowire
    The Tigers and Rogers avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $2.64 million contract Thursday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports. Rogers had been arbitration-eligible for a second time. The catcher slashed a disappointing .197/.255/.352 with 10 home runs in 2024, but he remains a trusted receiver and is slated to open 2025 at the top of the Tigers' catching depth chart.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: X-rays come back negative

    Rotowire
    Rogers expects to be ready to play in Game 5 of the ALDS versus the Guardians on Saturday after X-rays on his left wrist came back negative, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. Rogers was hit in the wrist area by a couple foul tips in Thursday's Game 4 loss, but he received treatment Friday and is feeling better than expected. The catcher has started all six postseason games for the Tigers, going 5-for-18 with one RBI at the plate. If he's deemed to be unavailable Saturday, rookie Dillon Dingler would get his first career postseason start behind the plate.

  • Tigers' Jake Rogers: Dealing with injuries

    Rotowire
    Rogers had his wrist and forearm wrapped following Thursday's loss to the Guardians, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Rogers was pinch-hit for in the ninth inning, though that appeared to be for an offensive upgrade rather than due to injury. He's set to undergo X-rays, which could dictate his availability for a decisive Game 5 in the ALDS on Saturday.
