Trevor Rogers: Everything you need to know

Rogers didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Mariners, giving up three runs on six hits and a walk over 5.2 innings. He struck out three. The southpaw pounded the strike zone and got lifted after 97 pitches (71 strikes) with two on and two outs in the sixth inning, coming up just short of his fourth quality start of the season and his first since April 7. It's been a tough year so far for Rogers, but June has begun in encouraging fashion as he's allowed four runs in 11.1 innings over two starts (3.18 ERA) with a 6:2 K:BB. He'll look to build on those efforts in his next outing, which is set to come at home this weekend against a Padres squad that sits dead last in the majors in wOBA versus left-handed pitching.

Rogers (3-6) earned the win Thursday over the Red Sox, allowing a run on five hits and a walk over 5.2 innings. He struck out three. The Orioles provided Rogers with more than enough run support Thursday, scoring six runs before the southpaw took the mound in the first inning. Rogers certainly did his part as well, blanking the Red Sox over five innings before allowing a lone run on a Willson Contreras two-out single in the sixth. It's certainly an encouraging effort from Rogers, who hadn't held opponents to fewer than four runs in any of his previous four starts -- he struggled to a 10.44 ERA across 25 frames in his previous six outings. Rogers will carry a 6.29 ERA with a 1.51 WHIP and 41:19 K:BB into his next start, tentatively scheduled to come next week at home against the Mariners.

Rogers did not factor into Friday's decision against the Blue Jays, allowing four runs on six hits and one walk while striking out three across six innings. Rogers was in complete command for most of Friday's start, giving up just three baserunners through the first six innings. He was brought back out for the seventh, but that decision backfired on the Orioles as Rogers proceeded to give up two-run home runs to both Kazuma Okamoto and Charles McAdoo without recording an out. It ruined what would have otherwise been Rogers' fourth quality start of the season and first since April 7 against the White Sox. He has given up at least four earned runs in six of his seven starts since that QS, which has Rogers sitting at a 6.84 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 48.2 innings. His next start is slated for next week against the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
