Gets sixth start of season Haase will start at catcher and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Twins.

Impact Haase has now started in just six of the Brewers' 19 games since he was called up from Triple-A Nashville on June 26. Though his playing time is expected to remain sparse while All-Star catcher William Contreras is healthy, Haase has made the most of his limited opportunities thus far, going 6-for-17 with a home run, a walk, five RBI and two runs through his first five games with Milwaukee.

Catcher Eric Haase and the Milwaukee Brewers have agreed to a one-year contract

DECEMBER 20, 2023 • Associated Press

Signs with Milwaukee Haase agreed to a one-year contract with the Brewers on Wednesday.

Impact Haase was outrighted off Cleveland's 40-man roster in early December and elected free agency after the season, and he's now found a home for 2024. The 31-year-old also has two years of club control beyond the upcoming campaign. He struggled to a .201/.247/.281 slash line last year but had a .746 OPS across the prior two seasons. Haase should serve as Milwaukee's No. 2 catcher behind starter William Contreras.

Elects free agency Haase elected to become a free agent Tuesday.

Impact Haase tallied 36 home runs in 208 games for the Tigers between the 2021-2022 seasons, but the 30-year-old catcher and corner outfielder stumbled to a .201/.247/.281 batting line across 293 major-league plate appearances in 2023.

Outrighted to Triple-A Haase cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Columbus on Sunday.

Impact Haase lost his spot on the Guardians' 40-man roster, but it appears he will stick around in the organization. The 30-year-old has managed just a .528 OPS with four home runs in 89 games between the Tigers and Guardians in 2023.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jettisoned from 40-man roster Haase was designated for assignment by the Guardians on Thursday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Guardians needed to clear a couple spots on their 40-man roster for their recent waiver claims, and Haase is one of the victims. Haase lasted barely over a week with Cleveland after being claimed off waivers from the Tigers.

Logs steal Sunday Haase went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's 10-7 extra-innings win over the Blue Jays.

Impact Haase has made two starts since the Guardians claimed him off waivers from the Tigers last Monday. Both of those games have seen him start behind the dish, but his path to playing time there is crowded with both Bo Naylor and Cam Gallagher also on the roster. Haase has a paltry .203/.249/.284 slash line with four home runs, four steals, 26 RBI, 22 runs scored, eight doubles and a triple over 290 plate appearances this season. He's gone 2-for-7 with a walk and two strikeouts with Cleveland, but it seems unlikely the 30-year-old will get into the lineup much more than once or twice a week.

Guardians claim C Eric Haase off waivers; veteran was released by Detroit and returns to Cleveland

Eric Haase’s baseball journey has brought him back to Cleveland

AUGUST 21, 2023 • Associated Press

Scooped up by Cleveland The Guardians claimed Haase off waivers from the Tigers on Monday.

Impact After Detroit moved him off its 40-man roster last week, Haase will stick within the American League Central and begin his second stint in the Guardians organization after he was drafted by Cleveland in 2011 before being traded to the Tigers in 2020. Haase has no minor-league options remaining, so he'll join the 26-man active roster and will step in as the new No. 2 catcher behind Bo Naylor while Cam Gallagher (concussion) and David Fry (hamstring) are on the injured list. Prior to being cut by the Tigers, Haase slashed an abysmal .201/.246/.284 over 282 plate appearances on the season.

Detroit Tigers release veteran catcher Eric Haase, sign free agent C Carson Kelly with eye on future

With an eye toward improving their catching in the future, the Detroit Tigers designated veteran Eric Haase for assignment and signed free agent catcher Carson Kelly

AUGUST 19, 2023 • Associated Press

Dropped from 40-man roster Haase was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Saturday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact With Haase being dropped from the 40-man roster, Detroit signed Carson Kelly to a major-league contract Saturday. Haase has struggled to a .201 average with 13 extra-base hits, 26 RBI, 22 runs and three stolen bases over 264 at-bats in 86 games with the Tigers this year. The catcher will now either get claimed by another team, report to Triple-A Toledo or be released outright.

Sitting out afternoon game Haase is not in the lineup for the first game of Friday's doubleheader versus the Guardians.

Impact Jake Rogers will do the catching for Tarik Skubal in the afternoon contest. That makes is virtually guaranteed that Haase will be behind the plate for the nightcap with Matt Manning on the mound.

AUGUST 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Retreats to bench Wednesday Haase is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.

Impact Haase had started in three of the last four games -- two at catcher and one in left field -- but he'll head to the bench Wednesday as Jake Rogers and Akil Baddoo step in at those respective positions. The Tigers still appear to view Haase primarily as a catcher, and Rogers should remain the team's preferred option behind the plate given Haase's season-long struggles. Among the 275 players in the majors with at least 250 plate appearances this season, Haase ranks 274th with a 44 wRC+.

AUGUST 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting out Thursday Haase is not in the lineup for Thursday's tilt versus the Rangers, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Haase started 12 of the Tigers' first 13 games against left-handers this season but has since been in the lineup just twice the last five times they've faced southpaws. After putting up a .778 OPS versus lefties in 2022, he's managed just a .522 OPS so far against them in 2023. Jake Rogers will catch Thursday and Matt Vierling will play left field.

JUNE 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Takes a seat Sunday Haase is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

Impact Haase went 2-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored Saturday, but he'll alternate at catcher with Jake Rogers, who slides into the lineup for the series finale. Haase can play in the outfield when he's not behind the plate, though he's only started once in the outfield this month.

Tigers score three runs in the second inning thanks to Eric Haase and Zach McKinstry

JUNE 25, 2023 • FOX SPORTS

Drives in three in win Haase went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and three RBI in Wednesday's 9-4 win over the Royals.

Impact Haase came in batting just .154 in June with only one multi-hit game this month, so the production was somewhat unexpected. The 30-year-old remains in a timeshare behind the plate with Jake Rogers, which limits the fantasy ceiling of both players. Haase did pop 14 home runs last season and 22 long balls in 2021, however, so the Tigers will likely continue to give him plenty of at-bats as he tries to get going.
