Red Sox Lose Catcher to White Sox Through Waivers
The Boston Red Sox have lost one of their catchers, as Jake Rogers has been claimed off of waivers from the Chicago White Sox.
The Chicago White Sox have claimed Boston Red Sox catcher Jake Rogers off waivers, following the Red Sox's designation of Rogers for assignment earlier in the week. This comes after the Red Sox acquired Rogers from the Baltimore Orioles earlier this month.
With Joey Bart sidelined, the White Sox are looking to bolster their catching options, and Rogers' experience could be valuable for them. In three games with Boston following his acquisition, Rogers had three hits in six at-bats, including two doubles and two RBI. Over his career, Rogers has hit 47 home runs, driven in 140 RBI, and batted .199 in 368 MLB games spread across six seasons with the Detroit Tigers, Orioles, and Red Sox. It remains to be seen how Rogers will adjust to playing for the White Sox.
