ERIC HAASE NEWS

Placed on IL with ab strain The Tigers placed Haase (back) on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right abdominal strain.

Impact Detroit withheld Haase from the lineup for each of the past three games with an injury the team labeled as lower-back tightness, but follow-up tests apparently revealed the abdominal strain. The severity of Haase's injury isn't known, but he'll be on the shelf for at least the next week. Grayson Greiner will operate as Detroit's No. 1 catcher while Haase is on the IL.

Scratched with back tightness Haase was scratched from Tuesday's lineup against the Orioles because of low back tightness.

Impact Haase was originally slated to bat seventh and catch Casey Mize, but the back issue will force him to the bench. Grayson Greiner will enter the lineup as the catcher, and Haase can be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Day off Sunday Haase is not in the lineup Sunday against Cleveland, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Haase started the past 11 games (eight at catcher, two at designated hitter and one in left field), and he'll receive a well-deserved day off in the series finale versus Cleveland. Grayson Greiner will work behind the plate in his place Sunday.

Cabrera doesn't homer but leads Tigers over Indians 6-4

Miguel Cabrera is finding ways to help the Detroit Tigers while he waits for career homer No. 500

AUGUST 15, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Connects for 19th home run Haase went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to Cleveland.

Impact Haase continued his strong season, connecting for his 19th home run of the season in the fifth inning. The Detroit catcher had one career MLB home run before this year in limited playing time and had never finished with an OPS above .387. He's currently sporting an .802 OPS and should remain a primary offensive option for the Tigers.

Tigers' Cabrera gets day off as he nears 500th home run

Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera has been held out of the lineup against the Cleveland Indians

Collects steal during two-hit game Haase went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 2-1 win over Cleveland.

Impact Haase has typically provided most of his fantasy value this season through his power production, but he made a rare impact on the bases Saturday. The 28-year-old rookie is locked in atop the depth chart at catcher, and because the Tigers want to keep his potent bat in the lineup, he should have a spot in the lineup at designated hitter on most occasions when he's getting the day off behind the dish. Grayson Greiner will catch in Sunday's series finale while Haase serves as the DH and bats out of the cleanup spot.

Nabs Rookie of the Month honors Haase earned American League Rookie of the Month honors for July after slashing .265/.319/.627 in the month with nine home runs and 29 RBI.

Impact Haase exploded onto the scene in July by hitting half of his season total of 18 home runs and recording more than half of his 46 RBI. The 28-year-old has surprisingly emerged as an everyday player for the Tigers after beginning the year lower on the depth chart, and his grip on playing time got stronger when Jake Rogers (forearm) hit the injured list on July 19. Haase should remain entrenched in Detroit's lineup, and while he likely won't keep up July's productivity the rest of the season, he should still maintain fantasy relevance in his current role.
