Latest news and updates about the Giants
It’s been 10 years, as you know, since the Cubs won the World Series. On their way to that win, there were some memorable games and over the next few weeks, I’ll post some highlights from those games so we can all remember. The Division Series against the Giants had gone the Cubs’ way in […]
Giants president of baseball operations Buster Posey expressed confidence in Willy Adames' future as San Francisco's shortstop last week, even after the...
The Cleveland Guardians defeated the Chicago White Sox Thursday night to tie their Division Series at 2-2 and force a Game 5 in Cleveland on Saturday. They did it thanks to two former Giants who had a big impact on the results: Patrick “Patty Barrels” Bailey, who went 2-for-3, scored two runs, and delivered a […]
With the conclusion of Kevin Gausman’s 5-year, $110 million contract that he signed with the Toronto Blue Jays after the Giants left him on read following the 2021 season, we can now see if the gamble to replace him in the aggregate as the team’s co-ace or, simply, the #2 starter to pair with Logan […]
Undoubtedly the best move Alex Anthopoulos made over the last calendar year was the acquisition of Tyler Mahle. The veteran arm was sporting an ERA north of 5.00 for San Francisco, nobody was looking to deal for him, and the Braves essentially got him just for picking up the remaining $2 million on his contract. […]
Tyler Mahle’s time with the Atlanta Braves could be over, but the veteran right-hander made it clear that he would have no problem returning if the opportunity presents itself. Mahle was one of the biggest beneficiaries of the trade deadline, turning his season around after a difficult stint with the San Francisco Giants. He quickly […] The post Will Tyler Mahle return to Braves after his stellar performance after trade? appeared first on ClutchPoints .

During his time in the KBO, Jung Hoo Lee solidified himself as one of the most talented players in the league’s history. He took home an MVP award and proved he could do everything you could ask of him on a baseball field. That led to the San Francisco Giants paying the superstar a hefty […] The post What Do the Giants Do With Jung Hoo Lee? appeared first on Just Baseball .
The Dodgers are back in Atlanta for Game 4 of the NLDS on Wednesday, needing just one more win to clinch the series. After getting to Chris Sale in Game 3, the Dodgers will face right-hander Tyler Mahle, who has turned heads since being acquired at the trade deadline from the San Francisco Giants. After […]
The count drags on. Basic numbers revealing basic problems. 6 — Six wins against the Colorado Rockies. That number should be read with added emphasis: just six. Italics needed. The Giants had double-digit win totals against Colorado in 2025 and 2024, but in 13 confrontations in 2026 against the bottom dwellers of the division, of […]

Once a team comes up with its projected salary for all of its arbitration-eligible players, it will begin a tender analysis to simply determine: “Are we comfortable guaranteeing Player X this much money?” If the answer is yes, the player will be tendered a contract prior to the mid-November Tender Deadline. Tendering a contract means […] The post San Francisco Giants Arbitration Projections and Tender Decisions appeared first on Just Baseball .
Former Cleveland left-hander Sam McDowell passed away on Monday, the team announced. He was 84 years old. McDowell’s decorated career spanned 15 seasons, 11 of which were spent in Cleveland. He also pitched for the Giants, Yankees, and Pirates. McDowell was a six-time All-Star. He won the American League ERA crown in 1965. “The Cleveland […]
The 15-year MLB veteran also pitched for the Yankees, Giants and Pirates.
The Giants entered the season ostensibly trying to compete for a Wild Card spot. Injuries and poor performances from key veterans instead left them one of the worst teams in the league. Their infield has some talented but aging veterans, and the rest of the roster needs significant improvement, especially the bullpen. The front office […]
Steve Adams Good afternoon! I’ll get going at 3pm CT, but as always, feel free to submit questions ahead of time. Hello! Sorry to be slightly late. Blame Tim Dierkes. Long meeting! Let’s get underway haha Optimistic Giants Fan Skubal sweepstakes: are you taking the Dodgers or the field? Who else is capable/likely of making […]
For the thirteenth time in franchise history, the Giants have ended a regular season with 90+ losses. It’s the tenth time in the San Francisco era where the team has piled up that much losing in a single year and the fourth time in the Oracle Park era. In fact, since 2000, the San Francisco […]
Good morning! It’s Monday, which sucks. And it’s the first Monday without Red Sox baseball since March, which sucks even more. But one thing I’m fond of reminding people is that baseball exists beyond the confines of the Major Leagues. The Yomiuri Giants finished the NPB regular season just 2 games behind their bitter rivals, […]
Dang, it’s already been over six weeks since Zack Minasian blessed us with his take on Moneyball, where you only focus on certain stats that have a high rate of correlation and predictability? “Something I was looking at the other day,” Minasian stated, “the ninth inning obviously has been a huge issue. Our bullpen ERA, […]
Tyler Glasnow’s 2026 season has been a rollercoaster. On September 25, he struck out 11 Padres but took the loss, allowing three earned runs over 6.1 innings. Before that, he carved up the Giants, striking out 10 over six innings in a Dodgers win. The 6-foot-8 righty is still searching for consistency, but one thing […] The post Who Are Tyler Glasnow’s Parents? Meet Greg Glasnow and Donna Glasnow appeared first on EssentiallySports .
I’ll confess that I don’t know what the plan is for the San Francisco Giants. It was a lot easier when the nerdy front office telegraphed its statistical interests and preferred player profiles, but these 97-game losers are sort of inscrutable. High contact hitters? Sure. Sinker-slider pitchers with strikeouts and velocity secondary? Okay. Winning? Optional. […]
No, the Phillies aren’t playing today in the NLDS in Los Angeles, but baseball rolls on. All four series begin today with Chicago going to Cleveland for the first game, Atlanta taking on Los Angeles after that, New York going to Tampa Bay and San Diego headed to Milwaukee for the nightcap. All four series […]
Josue De Paula went 1-for-3 with two runs scored against the Giants on Sept. 19 at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium. (Kate Foultz/Los Angeles Dodgers) By Cary Osborne and Megan Garcia It’s become routine to say that the Dodger player development system had a special season. But it might be hard to pick a season — among recent ones — with more achievements than 2026. Every Dodger Minor League team from Single-A up reached the postseason. And then there are the individual achievements — including ...
After more than 43 years with the San Francisco Giants, first as a player, then as a broadcaster, Mike Krukow said his goodbyes last Sunday at Oracle Park.
There hasn’t been a lot of good news around these parts lately. But I come bearing some very good news: the San Francisco Giants season is over. I also have some more good news, at a personal and community level: our new app is doing awesomely. A month ago we announced the release of our […]
