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

Starting Sunday Haase is starting at catcher and batting ninth in Sunday's game against the Twins.

Impact After Jake Rogers got the start behind the plate Saturday, Haase will take over Sunday. Haase did appear as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning in the last contest. He's batting just .221 this season and only .188 in the month, making him a fairly uninspiring fantasy asset at the moment.

Not in Thursday's lineup Haase is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.

Impact Tigers manager A.J. Hinch has been siding with Jake Rogers at catcher lately, as Haase has started just two of the last seven games (and one of those was a doubleheader game). Haase homered Wednesday but is just 4-for-36 over his last 40 plate appearances.

Goes deep Wednesday Haase went 3-for-6 with a solo home run and two RBI across both games of Wednesday's doubleheader against Atlanta.

Impact Haase started the first game and went 3-for-5 with his third home run of the season. He hit the bench for the second game, though he did strike out as a pinch hitter. Haase continues to split time behind the plate with Jake Rogers and has limited fantasy value so long as he remains in a timeshare, though he can also play in the outfield on days when he doesn't catch.

Day off Monday Haase is not in the starting lineup Monday versus Atlanta, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Haase will take a seat after he went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Sunday's loss to the Diamondbacks. Jake Rogers will take over behind the plate and bat ninth in the series opener with Atlanta.

Returns to lineup Haase is starting at catcher and batting sixth in Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Haase sat out the first two games of the series in favor of Jake Rogers but will return to the lineup Sunday. Neither player has been a consistent offensive performer, as Haase has just a .566 OPS, while Rogers is a bit better at .692 though he's batting only .167. Haase may be unable to separate himself from Rogers any time soon behind the plate, though he can also pick up some starts in the outfield, which gives a slight boost to his overall outlook.

JUNE 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains on bench Haase will sit for the second straight game Saturday against Arizona.

Impact Haase seemed to be moving ahead of Jake Rogers on the Tigers' catching depth chart, starting seven of 10 games during a stretch which ran from May 24 through June 3. In the six games since then, however, it's been Rogers who's started four times. Rogers has now made 33 starts behind the plate to Haase's 29 this season, but Haase still has more playing time overall thanks to his 10 starts in left field and two at designated hitter.

JUNE 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting Friday Haase isn't starting Friday against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Haase's slump at the plate has begun to cost him significant playing time, as the Tigers have now alternated between Haase and Jake Rogers behind the dish since June 3. Rogers will start Friday and bat eighth.

JUNE 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out of lineup Tuesday Haase is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Phillies.

Impact Haase went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Monday's series opener at Philadelphia and holds a brutal .219/.283/.298 batting line on the year. Jake Rogers will catch and bat eighth for the Tigers on Tuesday night.

JUNE 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Takes a seat Sunday Haase is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Haase will head to the bench for the day game, with Jake Rogers getting the nod behind the plate. Haase has regained primary catching duties, but both players have struggled. Haase has a .596 OPS while Rogers is a little better with a .640 OPS, though he's batting just .156. The two only hold appeal in deeper fantasy formats.

JUNE 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting Wednesday Haase is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Haase will get a breather in the day game after a night game, paving the way for Jake Rogers to pick up a turn behind the plate. While catching or starting in left field in each of the Tigers' last four contests, Haase went 1-for-14 with two walks, a stolen base and two RBI.

Haase's sacrifice fly helps Tigers to comeback win over White Sox, 6-5

Eric Haase’s 10th-inning sacrifice fly gave the Detroit Tigers a 6-5 win over the Chicago White Sox

MAY 28, 2023 • Associated Press

Reclaims primary catching duties Haase will start at catcher and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Though Haase owns an unremarkable .640 OPS on the season, he's still offering more offensive production of late than Jake Rogers, who is slashing .093/.152/.279 thus far in May. Rogers appeared to overtake Haase as the Tigers' preferred catcher earlier this spring on the basis of his superior defense and his hot start to the season at the plate, but Rogers has started to lose playing time while his bat has cooled. Haase will start behind the plate for the fourth time in five games while Rogers takes a seat once again.

MAY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to bench Sunday Haase is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

Impact Jake Rogers will catch and bat ninth, sending Haase to the bench after he started Saturday. The two are mostly splitting time behind the plate, though Haase has the added versatility of being able to play in the outfield. He's batting .273 compared to just .183 for Rogers, though Rogers has a .712 OPS versus .701 for Haase.

MAY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting in second straight game Haase is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Though he didn't start in Tuesday's 2-0 loss to the Guardians, Haase saw his seven-game hitting streak come to an end when he struck out in a pinch-hitting appearance. He'll remain on the bench again for the series finale, but Haase should continue to play semi-regularly while moving between catcher, left field and designated hitter.

MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting Tuesday Haase is not in the starting lineup Tuesday versus the Guardians.

Impact Haase will take a seat after he went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Monday's victory. The 30-year-old has now secured at least one hit in seven straight contests, going 11-for-27 with two homers, seven RBI, seven runs scored and a stolen base over that stretch. Nick Maton will take over at designated hitter while Andy Ibanez enters the lineup at third base and bats eighth against Cleveland.

MAY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies three hits in win Haase went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Monday's win over the Guardians.

Impact All three hits were singles, but fantasy managers will be happy with the effort, which pushed Haase's batting average up to .297 for the season. Jake Rogers has seen more time at catcher lately, though he's only batting .203, so Haase could see things swing back in his direction. He's also capable of playing in the outfield on days when Rogers starts behind the plate.

MAY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Slides to left Sunday Haase is starting in left field and batting sixth in Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact Haase started Saturday's game behind the plate. He'll give way to Jake Rogers there Sunday but his versatility will allow him to make another start. Rogers has seemingly inched ahead as the team's top catcher, though Haase will continue to see plenty of time there and in the outfield.

MAY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Posts steal in win Haase went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 5-4 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Haase has hit safely in four straight games, going 6-for-15 (.400) with two home runs and six RBI in that span. His steal was his second of the season, though the catcher/outfielder shouldn't be counted on for much speed. He's been solid so far with a .278/.337/.405 slash line, two homers, 11 RBI, six runs scored and four doubles over 86 plate appearances.

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.
