US EditionMLB-Leading Tigers Activate Catcher Jake Rogers From Injured List, Designate Nido for Assignment
- Before their May 13, 2025, matchup against the St. Louis Cardinals in Denver, the Detroit Tigers reinstated 30-year-old Jake Rogers, who had been sidelined for over a month due to injury.
- Rogers missed 38 games after sustaining a strained left oblique injury on April 8, which led to his placement on the injured list and subsequent rehabilitation in Triple-A Toledo.
- During his five-game rehab, Rogers went 5 for 15 at the plate, while the Tigers designated catcher Tomás Nido for assignment to make room on the roster.
- Rogers, who has recorded four hits in 18 plate appearances this year, will be starting as catcher for left-hander Tarik Skubal in Tuesday's game, according to manager A.J. Hinch.
- Rogers' return suggests he will share catching duties with Dillon Dingler, who performed well offensively during Rogers' absence, while Nido's designation reflects the Tigers' roster adjustments.
