Blue Jays: An analytical overview of reliever Tyler Rogers
"Rogers is known for his usage throughout the season. He's led the NL numerous times for appearances (2020, 2021, and 2024) and led the entire Major Leagues last season with his 81 outings. Across both the Mets and Giants, Rogers worked 77 1/3 innings and allowed just 17 earned runs on 66 hits (7.7 H/9). He walked just seven hitters this past season (0.8 BB/9) while striking out 48 (5.6 K/9)."
"Rogers is going to be a special piece out of the bullpen, specifically due to his arm action and release point. His arm action is extreme submarine style, with his knuckles almost scraping the mound dirt, bringing the release from the bottom. His frontal appearance when he's separated on the mound resembles an eagle with wings sprawled; this allows for his arm path to travel low. Why is the release important to his profile? Nothing he throws comes near 90 mph."
Seranthony Dominguez reached free agency after 2025, leaving an unofficial high-leverage bullpen vacancy. Tyler Rogers signed for three years at $37 million with a vesting option for a fourth season and split 2025 between the San Francisco Giants and New York Mets. Rogers led the majors with 81 appearances in 2025 and has repeatedly led the NL in appearances. He threw 77 1/3 innings with 17 earned runs, 66 hits, 48 strikeouts, and only seven walks. Rogers allowed four home runs in 2025, ranks extremely well in exit velocity and barrel metrics, is a 56.6% career groundball pitcher, uses an extreme submarine arm slot, and relies primarily on a sinker and a slider.
