Overview

  • Taylor Rogers was sent to the Pittsburgh Pirates by the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for All-Star third baseman Ke’Bryan Hayes and shortstop prospect Sammy Stafura.
  • Tyler Rogers joined the New York Mets in a trade with the San Francisco Giants that shipped pitchers Blake Tidwell and Jose Butto plus outfielder prospect Drew Gilbert to San Francisco.
  • The moves mark the sixth MLB organization for left-hander Taylor and end right-hander Tyler’s seven-year stint in San Francisco.
  • Both brothers rank among the majors’ most effective relievers this season, each posting ERAs below 2.50 and leading their teams in appearances.
  • As the 10th set of MLB twins and the first siblings to be teammates since 1990, their simultaneous trades reflect deadline-day strategies to bolster late-season bullpens.
