SATURDAY SURVEY.
Totally Tigers

The Detroit Tigers have announced that their expected #1 catcher, Jake Rogers, will not be returning at all this year after having Tommy John surgery. Rogers was excellent defensively but struggled with the bat.

Tucker Barnhart?s contract expires after this year. He also struggled mightily at the plate but offered better defensive skills and experience that was helpful to the young pitchers.

Eric Haase has been seeing more time behind the dish but he is not as strong defensively. However, he is one of the top hitters on the team. He can also play first base.

The Tigers are not expected to have a catcher in their minor league system capable of coming up next year.

Going into the 2023 season, which one of these players should become the #1 catcher for the team?

Who should be the primary catcher for the Tigers next year?

1. Tucker Barnhart

2. Eric Haase

3. Jake Rogers

4. None. The Tigers will have to find one from outside the organization.
