New Mets reliever Tyler Rogers quietly one of MLB’s best bullpen arms — here’s how he does it
NY Post
He has the slowest fastball in baseball.
He only throws two pitches.
His submarine style might be the most unique delivery in the sport right now.
And yet, despite how unorthodox it looks, new Mets reliever Tyler Rogers has been one of the top bullpen arms in baseball for more than half a decade.
Rogers, acquired by the Mets in exchange for reliever José Buttó and prospects Drew Gilbert and Blade Tidwell, had been a fixture in the Giants’ bullpen before being dealt to the Big Apple on Wednesday.
Since debuting in 2019 with San Francisco, Rogers has posted a 2.79 ERA across 396 ⅔ innings, an incredible stretch of consistency at a position so volatile year-to-year.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
