Twins Re-sign Taylor Rogers to Bolster bullpen on a one-year deal

The Minnesota Twins brought back left-hander Taylor Rogers on a one-year, $2 million contract to shore up a bullpen that was decimated by last year’s trades. Rogers, a former Twin and 2021 All-Star closer, posted a 3.38 ERA with a 24% strikeout rate across 50 2/3 innings in 2025 but showed command issues and a decline in velocity. The move reintroduces a veteran arm to a bullpen with uncertainty and could pave the way for adding another reliever as the Twins rebuild their relief corps.

The San Francisco Giants lost two outfielders, Michael Conforto and Bryce Johnson, to injuries and a 10-run rally by the Los Angeles Dodgers led to a 10-5 loss for the Giants. Despite a strong start, Giants pitcher Alex Cobb was knocked out of the game in the fourth inning and reliever Taylor Rogers struggled, walking four batters in a row. Max Muncy hit two home runs for the Dodgers. Thairo Estrada hit a ninth-inning homer for the Giants, but it was too little, too late.

Dodgers dominate Giants with Muncy and Freeman's heroics.

The Los Angeles Dodgers won 10-5 against the San Francisco Giants, taking the series and leaving the Giants searching for answers and healthy outfielders. Max Muncy led the Dodgers' lineup and pounded Giants pitching, finishing the series with 11 RBI. The Giants lost two outfielders in the middle innings and also lost an early lead they had built off Clayton Kershaw. Taylor Rogers failed to record an out in the sixth, and the Dodgers tacked on against John Brebbia and Ross Stripling. Bryce Johnson made a leaping catch at the wall to rob Freddie Freeman of at least a two-run double but was shaken up on the play and sat on the warning track for a couple of minutes before slowly walking back to the dugout.

Giants' Rogers Throws Glove in Trash After Dodgers Outing.

San Francisco Giants pitcher Taylor Rogers threw his glove in the trash after a rough outing against the Los Angeles Dodgers, surrendering four walks and four earned runs without recording an out in the sixth inning. Rogers' frustration is understandable, but the glove might not be to blame for the poor performance. Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy hit a grand slam two batters after Rogers was pulled from the game. Rogers joked that he would need a new glove and hoped it was still in the dugout trash can.
