The Giants traded from an area of strength on Wednesday.
San Francisco traded veteran left-handed relief pitcher Taylor Rogers to the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for right-handed pitching prospect Braxton Roxby, the team announced after FanSided’s Robert Murray first reported the news on Wednesday.
Rogers spent two seasons in San Francisco after signing a three-year, $33 million contract with the Giants before the 2023 MLB season, joining his twin brother, Tyler, in the bullpen.
In 111 2/3 combined innings between the 2023 and 2024 seasons, Rogers posted a 3.06 ERA with 128 strikeouts and 47 walks in a Giants uniform.
Roxby is a 25-year-old pitching prospect who pitched for Double-A Chattanooga in 2024, posting a 5.21 ERA in 48 1/3 innings pitched with 65 strikeouts and 24 walks for the Lookouts.
