Secures ninth save Rogers earned the save against Arizona on Tuesday with a perfect inning during which he struck one one batter.

Impact It didn't look like the Giants would have any use for a closer early on, as Arizona built up a quick seven-run lead. However, San Francisco's offense stormed back and took the lead in the bottom of the eighth inning, giving Rogers a shot at his ninth save. He had little trouble taking advantage of the opportunity, pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning and striking out Asdrubal Cabrera to end the game. Rogers has emerged as the Giants' top closing option due to a standout 1.56 ERA and 0.98 WHIP across 34.2 innings. His 4.7 K/9 and .239 BABIP provide some reason to doubt whether those numbers will hold up, however.

Records hold Monday Rogers allowed two hits in a scoreless inning in Monday's 5-2 win over Arizona.

Impact The 30-year-old has allowed multiple baserunners in five of his last seven outings. Rogers appeared to take control of San Francisco's closer job in mid-May, but he worked the eighth inning Monday while Jake McGee threw a perfect inning for the save. It's safe to say manager Gabe Kapler will go with the hot hand in the ninth inning. Rogers has still put up excellent ratios with a 1.60 ERA and 1.01 WHIP across 33.2 innings. He's added eight saves and 11 holds in a high-leverage role.

Blows save Rogers allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk in two innings, and was responsible for a blown save in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

Impact As reliable as the funky righty has been this season, he has converted just eight of his 12 save opportunities. Even so, Rogers still boasts a stellar 1.71 ERA and is tied for second in baseball with 30 relief appearances. Further, Wednesday was only the fourth appearance in which he's yielded an earned run.

Notches another save Rogers earned the save against the Cubs on Saturday, allowing one unearned run on one hit in one inning. He struck out one batter.

Impact For the second game in a row, Rogers got the call with San Francisco ahead in the ninth inning. The Giants' defense committed two errors behind him to allow Chicago to pull within a run, but the right-hander got out of the inning with the save secure despite throwing only half of his 22 pitches for strikes. Rogers and Jake McGee each have eight saves on the season, but with five saves in his past eight appearances, Rogers may be the slight favorite for ninth-inning opportunities moving forward.

Picks up save Friday Rogers notched the save Friday against the Cubs after tossing a scoreless inning.

Impact Rogers didn't allow a hit, walked anyone or struck out anyone, but he still got the job done after retiring the side in order with three straight groundouts from Ian Happ, Sergio Alcantara and Rafael Ortega. He notched his seventh save of the campaign and has gone 7-for-10 in save chances so far.

Giants hit 4 home runs, thump Arrieta, Cubs 8-5

Blows save, takes win Rogers (1-0) allowed three runs on three hits in one inning but earned the win Friday versus the Dodgers.

Impact Rogers gave up a game-tying three-run home run to Austin Barnes in the bottom of the ninth inning. It was just the second home run Rogers has given up in 27 appearances this year. He then got the win when San Francisco reclaimed the lead in the top of the 10th, and Jarlin Garcia was able to notch the save. Despite Friday's hiccup, Rogers has posted a 1.63 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB across 27.2 innings this season. He's seen more ninth-inning work than Jake McGee lately, but the back end of the Giants' bullpen is very much a committee situation.

Secures sixth save Rogers earned the save against Arizona on Wednesday by pitching a scoreless ninth inning. He allowed three hits and struck out one.

Impact Rogers walked a high wire in the ninth frame, allowing singles to three of the first four batters he faced before striking out Ketel Marte and retiring Eduardo Escobar on a groundout. The right-hander now has six saves on the campaign, and he appears to be in a true tandem closer role with Jake McGee (11 saves). Rogers has the overall better numbers, registering a minuscule 0.68 ERA and 0.90 WHIP on the season. He hasn't yet posted the strikeout numbers of a typical closer, however, fanning only 14 batters across 26.2 frames.

Collects another save Rogers picked up the save after allowing a hit in a scoreless ninth inning Monday against the Reds.

Impact Rogers gave up a single to begin the frame, but he induced a ground ball for a double play and retired the final batter on a flyout to center field. The right-hander has been locked in of late, piecing together 10 consecutive scoreless outings, giving up five hits and fanning three over that stretch (10 innings).

Picks up save Sunday Rogers tossed a perfect ninth inning to earn the save against the Pirates on Sunday.

Impact Rogers had pitched in two of the last three games, but he was brought in to preserve a 4-1 lead and earned his fourth save of the season Sunday. The right-hander has posted a 0.76 ERA and 0.76 WHIP in 23.2 innings across 21 relief appearances in 2021.

Locks down third save Rogers pitched a scoreless ninth inning and allowed one hit to earn the save in Thursday's 3-1 win over Pittsburgh.

Impact Rogers got the call in the ninth since Jake McGee had pitched in both games in Texas prior to the Giants' scheduled off day Wednesday. The 30-year-old Rogers did well, earning his third save. He's also picked up 10 holds and two blown saves in 21 outings. The right-hander has a 0.83 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 10:4 K:BB across 21.2 innings in a high-leverage role.

Collects another hold Rogers pitched a perfect eighth inning to earn a hold in Monday's 3-1 win over Texas.

Impact Rogers is already up to 10 holds, two saves and two blown saves in 20 appearances. He's been excellent as the primary setup man to Jake McGee. Rogers has a 0.87 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 10:4 K:BB in 20.2 innings. The sidearm-throwing right-hander is thriving in a high-leverage role for the NL West-leading Giants.

MAY 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Notches hold Friday Rogers pitched a perfect eighth inning to earn a hold in Friday's 5-4 win over San Diego.

Impact Manager Gabe Kapler indicated Rogers could get a look at ninth-inning duties with Jake McGee struggling, but opted to keep the hierarchy at the back of the bullpen intact Friday. It worked out just fine, with Rogers collecting his ninth hold and McGee pitching a scoreless ninth inning for the save. The 30-year-old Rogers has a 0.96 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 10:3 K:BB across 18.2 innings. He's picked up a pair of saves when McGee wasn't available -- Rogers is likely to stick in a high-leverage role throughout the season.

MAY 8, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Could get more ninth-inning work Giants manager Gabe Kapler said Wednesday that Rogers may be in the mix for more work in save situations, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Kapler's comments come less than 24 hours after closer Jake McGee was roughed up for four earned runs while recording just two outs in the Giants' loss to the Rockies in the second half of a doubleheader. Rogers, meanwhile, logged a clean inning in front of McGee to reduce his season ERA to a microscopic 1.02. Though Rogers doesn't miss many bats (5.1 K/9), he's been masterful at inducing weak contact and has already been battle tested in the ninth inning with a couple of saves on his ledger this season. With McGee having now given up at least one run in five of his last six appearances, his hold on the closer gig appears to be loosening, so Rogers makes sense as a speculative pickup in the event McGee fails to right the ship in his subsequent outings.
