Dillon Dingler - Page 20 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Hits first MLB home run Dingler went 2-for-4 with a double, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Giants

Impact Dingler collected his first home run and first multi-hit game at the MLB level. Through seven appearances, the rookie catcher is now batting .208 with a .727 OPS. Dingler is splitting time behind the plate with Jake Rogers, though the latter is mired in a 1-for-23 slump. As a result, Dingler could take on a larger share of the work at least in the short term, which would give his fantasy value a slight boost.

Dingler and Vierling homer, Tigers hold off Giants 5-4 to avoid sweep

Dillon Dingler hit his first career home run, Matt Vierling also went deep, and the Detroit Tigers held on to beat the San Francisco Giants 5-4 to avoid the series sweep

Drawing second straight start Dingler will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Dingler will pick up a second straight start and could see the larger portion of the work behind the plate while fellow backstop Jake Rogers has fallen into a skid at the plate over his last seven contests (1-for-23, 11 strikeouts). Though he hasn't been especially productive in his own right since getting called up on July 29 (.150 average, .477 OPS through 22 plate appearances), Dingler turned in a .938 OPS over a larger sample of 71 games at Triple-A Toledo and would seem to bring more upside to the table.

Not in Detroit lineup Dingler is not in the lineup for Friday's contest against the Royals, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Since his promotion, Dingler has now started two of six games, with Jake Rogers getting the call behind the plate for the other four. The rookie catcher is 1-for-6 with a 3:1 K:BB in his first seven major-league plate appearances.

Heading to bench Tuesday Dingler is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact After getting recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Dingler made his MLB debut in the Tigers' 8-4 loss later in the evening, going 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and an RBI. He'll get a breather for the day game after a night game, affording Jake Rogers a turn behind the dish. The Tigers could deploy the two catchers in relatively even fashion in the short term, but Dingler looks to be the more intriguing fantasy option of the two. The 25-year-old popped 17 home runs, stole five bases and batted .308 while walking at a 10.2 percent clip over 71 games at Toledo prior to his promotion.

Reaches twice in MLB debut Dingler went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double and an RBI in Monday's 8-4 loss to the Guardians.

Impact Making his MLB debut, Dingler batted sixth and looked fairly comfortable in the position. The 25-year-old certainly earned the promotion, as he was slashing .308/.379/.559 for Triple-A Toledo so far this season, and Sunday's trade of Carson Kelly opened up a roster spot. The rookie will likely split time with Jake Rogers behind the plate just like Kelly did, though Dingler could quickly seize a larger share of playing time if he plays well. His short-term fantasy value is pointing upward.

Officially summoned to majors The Tigers recalled Dingler from Triple-A Toledo on Monday.

Impact Dinger receives his first big-league promotion after batting .308 with 17 home runs, 52 RBI, 44 runs scored and five stolen bases over 301 plate appearances with Toledo this season. The 25-year-old should have a leg up over Jake Rogers for playing time at catcher down the stretch.

JULY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to be called up Monday Dingler is expected to be called up to the major-league roster Monday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Dingler will join the Tigers in Detroit ahead of a two-game set against the Guardians, looking to make his major-league debut. The 25-year-old produced an impressive .308 average with 17 homers, 52 RBI, 44 runs scored and five stolen bases over 263 at-bats in 71 games with Triple-A Toledo this season. With the Tigers trading away Carson Kelly on Sunday, Dingler will compete with Jake Rogers for work at catcher with the big-league club.

JULY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gets spot on 40-man The Tigers selected Dingler to their 40-man roster Tuesday.

Impact Dingler delivered an .839 OPS with 16 home runs and 58 RBI over 89 total major-league games in 2023. The 25-year-old catcher finished out the season with Triple-A Toledo and could make his major-league debut at some point during the 2024 campaign.

NOVEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Promoted to Triple-A The Tigers promoted Dingler to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Dingler has been very solid at the plate this season with Double-A Erie, slashing .254/.372/.464 with nine homers and 42 RBI across 218 plate appearances. The 24-year-old backstop will now make his way to Triple-A for the first time in his career and could see the majors next season if his bat holds up against tougher competition.

AUGUST 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Mashing since returning from injury Dingler is hitting .423 with three home runs and one steal in seven games since returning from a knee injury for Double-A Erie.

Impact He also hit .448 with four home runs and two steals in eight games during a rehab assignment with Single-A Lakeland. Dingler turns 25 in September, so he is old for Double-A and especially old for Single-A, but there's no denying this is the best stretch of his professional career. The 38th overall pick in 2020, Dingler has a 47.6 percent hard-hit rate and should soon earn a promotion to Triple-A.
