Tyler

Rogers

Rogers imploded in this one as the Mets were all over him for a much needed rally. He only had the save opportunity after Camilo Doval worked back to back days. A loss like this could move him down the high-leverage pecking order in the Giants’ bullpen.

That’s the first save for Rogers, and with Camilo Doval locked into the closing role, it’s very likely his last for a while. The 33-year-old has a 2.22 ERA, eight holds and a 0.97 WHIP over his 26 appearances for the Giants in 2024.

Tyler is the right-handed reliever and not to be confused with his twin brother, Taylor, who is a left-handed reliever also on the Giants. The side-armer has been a solid reliever for San Francisco and posted a 3.04 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, and 60.19 K/BB ratio in 74 innings in 2023. He figures to remain a key bridge to closer Camilo Doval in 2024.

Rogers was called upon to bail out his brother in the eighth inning after Bryan De La Cruz smacked a solo homer that pulled the Marlins to within a run. He got Jon Berti to pop out to second to end the eighth, then returned to work a perfect ninth inning that included strikeouts of Nick Fortes and Garrett Hampson to end it. He now holds an impressive 2.31 ERA and 0.99 WHIP across 21 1/3 innings on the season.

Giants’ closer Camilo Doval threw 14 pitches in a loss to the Royals on Saturday, so manager Gabe Kapler turned to Rogers to close things out after the Giants grabbed a late lead on Sunday afternoon. He obliged -- even after Vinnie Pasquantino reached on catcher’s interference -- getting Salvador Perez to pop out to short and Matt Duffy to hit into a game-ending double play. Doval is still the favorite for saves here, but as always with Kapler, the rest of the late-inning relief corps is always capable of stealing the occasional save.

Rogers was arbitration-eligible for the first time this winter. He’ll share the field, technically not at the same time, with his twin brother, Taylor, who signed with the Giants this offseason. The 32-year-old righty posted a solid 3.57 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 49/23 K/BB ratio across 75 2/3 innings (68 appearances) last year.

Rogers has been away since Tuesday but will rejoin the club for their weekend series in Cleveland. He’ll return to his late-inning assignments.

Rogers is expected to return to the Giants for their weekend series in Cleveland. He took a loss on Monday night against the Padres, in the same game that his twin brother Taylor Rogers earned a save.

Rogers will be available to pitch Monday, potentially setting himself up to appear in the same game as his identical twin, Taylor. He’ll then go on paternity leave before returning for the Giants’ weekend series in Cleveland.

Rogers appears to have avoided a potentially serious injury after he was struck in the right shin Saturday night by a comebacker off the bat of Joey Votto during a Cactus League appearance. The 31-year-old side-winder should be ready to go in a few days.
