Just before Opening Day last season Derek Falvey and Thad Levine decided to part ways with Taylor Rogers . The timing may have been odd, but he was an aging-and-injured-closer coming off of a down year and heading into free agency. It was an opportunity to grab a controllable starter, even with injury history, in Chris Paddack while seeing Emilio Pagan as a throw in. Oh, and Brent Rooker went to San Diego in the deal as well. Fast forward to today, and things have changed. Rogers is pitching with his twin Tyler Rogers for the San Francisco Giants.
