Rogers allowed an unearned run and one hit in two-thirds of an inning, getting charged with a blown save in Thursday's extra-inning loss to the Mariners.
Rogers entered the game after Jarlin Garcia worked into a jam in the eighth inning. An error by Brandon Belt allowed two runs to score, handing Rogers the blown save, although Alex Dickerson's homer in the ninth got the 30-year-old righty off the hook. It's a slightly discouraging beginning to the year for Rogers, especially considering Jake McGee worked a scoreless ninth inning in a non-save situation. There's no clear answer as to which pitcher will rise above the rest for saves in a crowded Giants bullpen, if any, but Rogers should be expected to see usage in high-leverage situations.
