(Toronto) Right-handed pitcher Tyler Rogers and the Toronto Blue Jays agreed on the final details on Monday of the $37 million deal that will bind the player and the team for the next three seasons.
Rogers’ contract includes an option for the 2029 season.
At 34 years old, Rogers is the Blue Jays’ newest addition to the mound.
Recently, the Toronto team awarded seven-year contracts worth $210 million to Dylan Cease and three-year contracts worth $30 million to Cody Ponce. Additionally, the Blue Jays acquired reliever Chase Lee in a trade with the Detroit Tigers.
In 2025, with the San Francisco Giants and New York Mets, Rogers led the major leagues with 81 appearances on the mound. Since 2020, he is at the top of Major League Baseball with 403 starts and a total of 406 1/3 innings pitched in relief.
The Mets acquired Rogers on July 30 for pitchers José Buttó and Blade Tidwell, as well as outfielder Drew Gilbert, a minor league prospect.
In 420 career games with the Giants and Mets between 2019 and 2025, Rogers recorded a 2.76 ERA.
To make room for Rogers in the lineup, the Blue Jays designated left-handed pitcher Justin Bruihl for assignment.
