Mets takes Tyler Rogers de Giants in an attempt to reinforce the bullpen that has come to less in recent weeks


The New York Mets acquired the right reliever Tyler Rogers of the San Francisco Giants in exchange for three players, Wednesday, reinforcing a bullpen that has been in decline in recent weeks.

The METS paid a very high price for Rogers services, sending the right pitcher Jose Butto, the gardener prospect Drew Gilbert and the right pitcher Blade Tidwell to the giants.

Rogers, 34, is a pitcher specializing in generating soft contacts with a two -launched arsenal focused on a symbol that averages only 83 mph.

This season, has launched with an effectiveness of 1.80, with 38 strikeouts and four bases per ball in 50 entries over 53 appearances, leader in the MLB. It has an effectiveness of 2.79 throughout its seven years of career, all with the giants. Last season, he recorded an effectiveness of 2.82 in 77 games, the greatest amount in the National League. He also led the National League in appearances in 2021, as well as in the 2020 season shortened by the pandemic.

Rogers’ identical brother, Taylor Rogers, was exchanged for the Cincinnati Reds to the Pittsburgh Pirates, Wednesday morning. According to AM850 Researchit is believed that it is the third time in the history of the MLB that two brothers are exchanged in the middle of the season the same day.

Tyler Rogers, who will become a free agent after this season, joins a body of reliefs of the Mets that has been reduced by excessive use and injuries. Since mid -May, New York has lost left -handed relief Aj Minder and Danny Young, already relieved Max Kranick and Deniel Nunez rights for the season due to injuries.

The loss of players, added to the fact that the Mets openers occupy the 25th post in tickets released this season, has resulted in a group under pressure that has had difficulties after occupying the second place in the major leagues in effectiveness of the bullpen until May 31.

Since June 1, the Bullpen of the Mets occupies the 25th position in the major leagues with an effectiveness of 4.87 and 28 in probability of added victory.

The loot sent by the Mets to the giants seems to be considerable. Gilbert, central gardener, was the seventh prospect in minor leagues of the Mets, according to Kiley McDaniel of AM850.

Tidwell was in Triple-A Syracuse after doing two openings and two appearances as reliever for METS this season.

To make space in the roster of 40 players, the Giants placed in allocation to the right pitcher Sean Hjelle.
