with Minnesota, acquiring left-handed reliever Taylor Rogers and corner outfielder Brent Rooker in exchange for starting pitcher Chris Paddack and reliever Emilio Pagàn. Rogers has established himself as the Padres’ closer, earning five saves in his first five attempts — including one in San Francisco, where he made history with his twin brother, Tyler, who pitches for the Giants.
