Rogers (3-4) pitched a perfect inning to earn the win Friday over the Marlins.
Rogers got three groundouts in the top of the eighth inning, and Matt Chapman's three-run double gave the Giants a lead in the bottom of the frame. Aside from a disastrous outing Aug. 23 versus the Mariners, Rogers has been sharp this month -- he hasn't allowed a run in any of his other August appearances. For the season, he has a 3.06 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 45:4 K:BB over 61.2 innings while adding a save and 29 holds. Rogers also leads the majors in appearances with 68, matching his total from each of the last two years, though he's more frequently been asked to get less than three outs in 2024.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Snags second win
Rotowire
Rogers (2-4) struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the win Friday over the Tigers.
The Giants' bullpen is in flux following the team's shock decision Friday to option Camilo Doval to the minors. Rogers wasn't asked to handle a save situation Friday, but he pitched the ninth inning in a tied game, which is another common situation for closers to handle. That may have been a product of Ryan Walker pitching on four of the previous five days, as it's likely to be Walker who sees the bulk of the ninth-inning duties while Rogers -- who has often struggled in save situations in his career -- remains in a setup role. For the season, Rogers has a 3.04 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 38:3 K:BB with 25 holds and one save in two chances. Jordan Hicks and Taylor Rogers are also in the high-leverage mix, and the former's prior closing experience could make him a dark-horse candidate for saves.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Yields two homers in loss
Rotowire
Rogers (1-4) allowed two runs on two hits over one inning to take the loss Thursday versus the Dodgers.
The Giants erased a two-run deficit in the top of the eighth inning, but Rogers gave it all back in the bottom of the frame by giving up back-to-back solo home runs to Nick Ahmed and Shohei Ohtani. This was Rogers' second loss in the span of a week, and he's allowed three homers over his last 3.1 innings. The right-hander is at a 3.33 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 34:3 K:BB with a save and 21 holds over 48.2 innings. He allowed only seven homers in 74 innings a year ago, but he's given up six long balls already this season.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Melts down Friday
Rotowire
Rogers (1-3) allowed three runs on three hits over one-third of an inning to take the loss Friday versus the Rockies.
Rogers couldn't keep the game tied at 3-3 in the eighth inning, giving up a three-run home run to Jake Cave that proved to be decisive. Prior to Friday, Rogers had allowed just one run over his last 10.2 innings. He's now at a 3.15 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 34:3 K:BB with a save and 19 holds across 45.2 innings this season. Rogers has generally been reliable in a setup role and does not appear to be in danger of losing that spot in the bullpen hierarchy.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Awarded win Tuesday
Rotowire
Rogers (1-2) pitched a perfect inning and was awarded the win Tuesday over the Cubs.
The Giants led from the second inning on during the bullpen game. Rogers was the first reliever to post a clean outing, and the official scorer handed him his first win of the campaign. Aside from a June 18 three-run meltdown versus these same Cubs in Chicago, Rogers has had a good month. He's kept runs off the board in his other 10 appearances while adding four holds in a setup role. For the season, he's at a 2.92 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 27:2 K:BB with a save, 12 holds and a blown save across 37 innings.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Dealt second loss
Rotowire
Rogers (0-2) allowed three runs on four hits and a walk while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning to take the loss Tuesday versus the Cubs.
Rogers was on the hook for the Cubs' three-run rally in the eighth inning. This outing ended his nine-inning scoreless streak, during which he allowed just four baserunners while striking out eight and collecting four holds. Rogers has been generally effective in a setup role this year with a 3.12 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 25:2 K:BB over 34.2 innings, to go with one save and 12 holds. While he sees plenty of high-leverage work, Rogers has often struggled when given opportunities to close, so Camilo Doval's role as closer is not in question despite his own struggles this year.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Blows save, suffers first loss
Rotowire
Rogers (0-1) suffered the loss Sunday, allowing three runs on four hits, a walk and a hit-by-pitch while only recording one out against the Mets.
Rogers was filling in for a resting Camilo Doval, who had pitched the previous two games of the series. It was the second time in four days Rogers was called upon to fill in for the Giants' regular closer, but Sunday's outing was not nearly as successful as Thursday's, blowing the save and allowing the Mets to walk it off after entering the ninth with a two-run lead. Rogers' ERA ballooned by over a run, from 2.19 entering the game to 3.24 following the outing.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Grabs save Thursday
Rotowire
Rogers earned the save in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Pirates, working around a hit in a scoreless ninth inning.
Rogers was called upon to protect a one-run lead in the ninth, with Camilo Doval having pitched three times in the last four days. The Pirates would get a couple of baserunners via an error and a Bryan Reynolds single, but Rogers would ultimately escape unscathed, securing his first save this season. The 33-year-old sidearmer has put together solid start to the campaign -- his ERA is down to 2.19 with a 0.97 WHIP and 16:0 K:BB across 24.2 innings. While Doval is firmly established as the closer in San Francisco, Rogers is the clear No. 2 option.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Picks up 30th hold
Rotowire
Rogers pitched a perfect inning to earn his 30th hold of the season in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Dodgers.
Despite the Giants' volatility overall, Rogers and Camilo Doval have made quite a formidable duo at the back end of the bullpen. The hold was Rogers' 30th of the season, matching his career-high total from 2021. He's allowed five runs (four earned) over 9.2 innings in September and has a 3.04 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 60:19 K:BB over 74 innings this season. He's also collected two saves, six blown saves and a 4-5 record.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Takes fifth loss
Rotowire
Rogers (4-5) allowed two runs on two hits and struck out three without walking a batter over two innings, taking the loss and a blown save Saturday versus Atlanta.
Rogers did his job with a scoreless seventh inning, but manager Gabe Kapler sent him back out for the eighth. Eddie Rosario took Rogers deep for a two-run home run that flipped the game around, handing the submariner his fifth blown save of the year, four of which have come in his last 11 appearances. In that span, the right-hander has given up seven runs over 11.2 innings. He's at a 2.73 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 48:15 K:BB with two saves and 24 holds over 59.1 innings this year, but he's been a bit less reliable than usual over recent weeks.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Secures fourth win
Rotowire
Rogers (4-4) allowed a run on two hits and struck out two without walking a batter over two innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Athletics.
Rogers allowed the game-tying run in the top of the eighth inning before the Giants took the lead back a half-inning later. He's been scored on in five of his nine appearances in July, but he's collected two wins and three holds while taking just one blown save over 9.2 innings this month. For the season, the setup man has a 2.29 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 40:14 K:BB through 51 innings while racking up 21 holds and two saves.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Wins suspended game
Rotowire
Rogers (2-4) allowed a walk in a scoreless and hitless inning to earn the win in Monday's suspended game versus the Reds.
The game resumed Tuesday, and Rogers did his part to keep it tied at 2-2 in the ninth inning before the Giants pulled ahead in the 10th. It's been a shaky July for the right-hander, who has allowed four runs on nine hits and three walks over 7.2 innings this month. Despite the iffy results, he's collected a win, three holds and just one blown save. Rogers is at a 2.25 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 38:13 K:BB through 48 innings this season while adding a National League-leading 21 holds.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Snags first win
Rotowire
Rogers (1-4) pitched a perfect inning and struck out one to earn the extra-inning win over the Cardinals on Wednesday.
The Giants were down to their last out at one point, but Mike Yastrzemski hit a two-run home run to tie it in the ninth inning. Rogers kept it tied, and the team rallied again in the 10th. Rogers has strung together 8.1 consecutive scoreless innings, and it's been 12.2 frames since he last gave up an earned run. He's worked as a setup man to great effect with a 1.65 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, 25:11 K:BB, 13 holds, two saves and a blown save over 32.2 innings this season. His 3.0 BB/9 and 3.63 FIP are both the worst marks of his career, however, which suggests he could see some regression.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Picks up second save
Rotowire
Rogers picked up the save Friday against the Marlins. He struck out two over 1.1 perfect innings.
Rogers has allowed just one run over eight innings pitched this month. In fact, four of the right-hander's six total runs allowed this year came in the same series against the Padres in late April. He's been quite effective against the rest of the league, as evidenced by his 2.31 ERA and 0.99 WHIP. Closer Camilo Doval pitched three of the previous four days and should remain San Francisco's top option for saves.

Rogers (0-3) took the loss Sunday versus the Diamondbacks, allowing a run on a hit and a walk over one inning.
Rogers pitched a perfect eighth inning to keep the game tied at 1-1. He stayed in for the ninth, walking Christian Walker before Lourdes Gurriel tagged him for a walkoff double.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Charged with loss
Rotowire
Rogers (0-1) gave up two runs on three hits and struck out one over two-thirds of an inning, taking the loss Saturday versus the Padres.
The game was played at altitude in Mexico City, making this a pitcher's worst nightmare. Rogers was the unlucky one who gave up a two-run home run to Manny Machado in the seventh inning, which put the Padres ahead for good. Rogers had allowed just one run over 14.1 innings prior to Saturday, and he has a still-solid 1.80 ERA and 0.80 WHIP with a 13:3 K:BB through 12 appearances this season. He's also picked up a save and three holds as a high-leverage option in the Giants' bullpen.

Rogers threw a perfect ninth inning to earn a save over the Royals on Sunday.
Rogers needed just six pitches to quickly work through the ninth inning and finish off the 3-1 win. It was his first save chance of the season, and he's now worked four shutout frames with one strikeout and no walks to begin his 2023 campaign. Camilo Doval did not appear in the game and was likely unavailable after pitching Friday and Saturday.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Mixed results in spring games
Rotowire
Rogers has allowed two earned runs on four hits and four walks with two strikeouts over 3.2 innings across four Cactus League games.
Rogers doesn't strike out many batters with his sidearm delivery, so that's not a concern, but the increase in walks is a bit troublesome. He posted a 5.8 K/9 and 2.7 BB/9 across 75.2 innings in a setup role last season, which also saw him earn 15 holds but no saves. The right-hander will compete with his twin brother, Taylor Rogers, for high-leverage spots, though Camilo Doval is locked in as the Giants' closer to begin the season.

Rogers signed a one-year, $1.675 million contract with the Giants on Friday to avoid arbitration, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
While not nearly as effective as he was in 2021, Rogers still had a 3.57 ERA over 68 appearances in 2022. In 2023 he'll be a teammate of his twin brother, Taylor Rogers, who signed with the Giants last month.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Fires scoreless inning
Rotowire
Rogers struck out one in a perfect inning during a 2-1 loss to the Brewers in the first game of Thursday's doubleheader.
Since the start of August, Rogers has allowed nine runs (six earned) over 15 innings spanning 14 appearances. He's added an 11:5 K:BB with a loss and two holds in that span. Rogers' relative inconsistency has prevented him from regaining a high-leverage role on a regular basis. For the year, he owns a 4.33 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 40:21 K:BB through 62.1 innings through 59 appearances.
