Cleveland — The games don’t stop.
Whether that’s comforting or confounding is up for individual interpretation.
The Tigers on Saturday were still processing the news that catcher Eric Haase had been designated for assignment. He’d caught the second game of the doubleheader Friday and less than 12 hours later he was flying back home, his baseball future thrust in sudden uncertainty.
“We’re not just teammates, we were friends,” fellow catcher Jake Rogers said. “It sucks, you know? It sucks. But that’s the way of the game.”
Rogers shrugged. Haase will move forward, he said, and we will move forward.
