Today, we are going to pretend to be Gabriel John Utterson as we investigate the “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.”
Playing the roles of Dr. Henry Jekyll and the cruel Edward Hyde is Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers.
When Rogers was last truly Dr. Jekyll in 2021, he was named an All-Star and finished second in Rookie of the Year voting after going 7-8 with a 2.64 ERA, 10.6 strikeouts per nine, .214 opponents’ average and 14.1 percent swinging-strike rate in 25 starts.
Much to the dismay of fantasy managers, everything devolved into chaos from 2022-24, when the evil Mr. Hyde took over as Rogers went 7-24 with a 5.09 ERA and 1.520 WHIP in 52 starts. The Dr. Jekyll version of Rogers faded during that time, rarely to be trusted in fantasy rotations, as Mr. Hyde ultimately took over.
