Eric Haase - Page 4 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Hits first two home runs Haase went a combined 4-for-8 with a double, two home runs, three runs scored and six RBI across both games of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Mets.

Impact Haase started the first game and mashed his first home run of the season, a three-run shot in the first inning. He then caught in the nightcap and hit another long ball. Haase is now batting .278, but before Wednesday, he wasn't really driving the ball with much authority and was losing playing time to Jake Rogers. He might be able to earn back some playing time behind the plate, though Haase can also play in the outfield, so the Tigers could continue to use both him and Rogers in a variety of alignments moving forward.

Gets Sunday off Haase is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Impact Haase went 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts against the Orioles on Saturday, and he's still looking for his first homer of the year. Jake Rogers will catch Spencer Turnbull on Sunday while hitting eighth.

Productive in loss Haase went 2-for-3 with two walks, two RBI and a run scored in Thursday's loss to the Orioles.

Impact Haase had a good night and snapped a small slump, as he entered the night batting .188 over his last seven games with no multi-hit efforts during the stretch. The Detroit catcher is now batting a solid .271, and while Jake Rogers will continue to see playing time, Haase is the primary option behind the plate. He also has the versatility to play the outfield, which further cements his regular spot in the lineup.

Sitting Wednesday Haase will sit Wednesday versus the Brewers.

Impact Haase will take a seat after he went 2-for-7 with a double, a run scored and three strikeouts over the first two games of the series. Jake Rogers will take over at catcher and bat eighth as Detroit goes for the sweep against Milwaukee.

APRIL 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Sunday Haase is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Impact Haase has produced a lowly .542 OPS through 49 plate appearances on the season, and because the Tigers value him mostly for his production with the bat rather than his work behind the plate, his ongoing offensive slump is beginning to cost him playing time. The defensive-minded Jake Rogers will get another turn behind the dish as the two backstops have now made four starts apiece at catcher over the last eight games.

Out of lineup Friday Haase isn't starting Friday against the Orioles.

Impact Haase has been on a much-needed hot streak lately, slashing .467/.500/.533 in 16 plate appearances over the last seven days. He'll take a seat Friday, allowing Jake Rogers to start behind the dish and bat ninth.

Four hits in matinee Haase went 4-for-4 with a run scored in a 4-3 win over the Guardians during the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader.

Impact All four hits were singles, but Haase won't complain after entering the contest with just seven hits in 36 at-bats this season. He upped his average from .194 to .275 with the big performance, then got a well-deserved rest in the nightcap. Jake Rogers has flashed some power in the early going, though Haase should remain the primary catcher in Detroit, and he can also play some in the outfield.

Playing in left field Friday Haase will start in left field Friday against the Giants and bat fifth.

Impact Haase will replace Akil Baddoo in left field with lefty Sean Manaea on the mound for San Francisco. Haase is off to a slow start to the year, batting just .138 through his first eight games.

Day off Saturday Haase is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact Haase started the past four games -- two at catcher, two in left field -- and will receive a breather Saturday after starting the year 3-for-23 with eight strikeouts. Jake Rogers has clubbed two early homers and will take over behind the plate.

APRIL 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Takes seat Sunday Haase is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

Impact Haase will be getting his first breather of the 2023 season after he started behind the dish in both of the Tigers' first two contests while going hitless across eight plate appearances. Jake Rogers will step in at catcher in the series finale, forming a battery with starting pitcher Joey Wentz.

Blasts third spring home run Haase went 2-for-2 with a solo home run in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Yankees.

Impact Haase now has three home runs in just 20 spring at-bats, which has helped propel him to a strong .986 OPS. The catcher has a career .720 OPS, so any gains there this season would be a welcome sight. With Tucker Barnhart now playing for the Cubs, Haase is the unquestioned No. 1 backstop for the Tigers, and he could make a run at the 22 homers and 61 RBI he recorded back in 2021, both of which were career highs. He also had a career-high 351 at-bats that season.

MARCH 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to catch more in 2023 With no other established MLB catchers on the roster, Haase is likely to see a significant amount of time behind the plate this season, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press repor...

Impact Haase started 68 games behind the plate in 2022, but that number could grow with Tucker Barnhart no longer on the roster. The Tigers now have Jake Rogers, Donny Sands and Andrew Knapp vying for a backup role, leaving Haase as the unquestioned starter heading into the season. He may not have as versatile a role anymore, but as a catcher who can hit for a little power, Haase should retain decent fantasy value.

Goes deep again Sunday Haase went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, two runs scored and two total RBI in Sunday's win over the Twins.

Impact After going deep Saturday, Haase hit another home run Sunday, pushing him to 14 long balls this season. He seems unlikely to match last year's 22 home runs, though his .257 batting average and .757 OPS are both improvements on his 2021 figures. After two solid seasons, Haase should head into 2023 with a fairly solid role in Detroit, likely as the team's top catcher.
