MIA 3, PHI 1; Rogers Quiets Phils Bats

Death, taxes, and superb outings from Trevor Rogers.

With recent memory that has been personified by uncertainty, these three have been utter guarantees.

A night after the normally great Marlins’ bullpen blew a late 3-1 lead, Don Mattingly and co. turned to Rogers, the consensus best pitcher for the team thus far in 2021, to get them back in the win column.

For the Marlins rookie left-hander—who entered play with a 1.84 ERA (220 ERA+) through his first 8 starts—anything close to what he had already done thus far would be enough assurance to justify Rogers’ ascendence to one of the more exciting young pitchers in the sport.
