Rogers (wrist) will start at catcher and bat eighth Saturday in Game 5 of the ALDS versus Cleveland. Rogers was removed from Game 4 due to a wrist injury, but X-rays came back negative after the game. He'll now attempt to play through any lingering soreness and continue his semi-hot streak, as he's gone 5-for-18 during the postseason.

Rogers expects to be ready to play in Game 5 of the ALDS versus the Guardians on Saturday after X-rays on his left wrist came back negative, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. Rogers was hit in the wrist area by a couple foul tips in Thursday's Game 4 loss, but he received treatment Friday and is feeling better than expected. The catcher has started all six postseason games for the Tigers, going 5-for-18 with one RBI at the plate. If he's deemed to be unavailable Saturday, rookie Dillon Dingler would get his first career postseason start behind the plate.

Rogers had his wrist and forearm wrapped following Thursday's loss to the Guardians, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Rogers was pinch-hit for in the ninth inning, though that appeared to be for an offensive upgrade rather than due to injury. He's set to undergo X-rays, which could dictate his availability for a decisive Game 5 in the ALDS on Saturday.
