Latest news and updates about the Giants
Good morning, baseball fans! Just when we thought that the San Francisco Giants’ 2026 season couldn’t get any worse, a slew of injuries have been taking players out left and right over the last week. Casey Schmitt and Trevor McDonald are done for the year. And Harrison Bader decided to scoot through it, and made […]
Daniel Susac was on the injured list when Patrick Bailey’s trade to the Guardians became official on May 9th. The transaction effectively made the rookie the Giants primary catcher, a promotion earned on the merits of his offensive production as the back-up backstop, which shone especially bright compared to the dull bat work of Bailey. […]
Box Score Well, that game was one to forget. The worst loss of the year also gives the Brewers their first series loss since before the All-Star break as they were pummeled 16-3 by the Giants. To begin, today was already one of those games you didn’t know what to expect as Thomas Pannone made […]

How big is Milwaukee willing to go to finally get past the Dodgers and back to the World Series?

Indeed, the second game of their road series was a [...]
The Milwaukee Brewers improved to 67-40 on the season following their 8-2 win over the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night.

Good morning, baseball fans! We are less than one week away from the 2026 MLB trade deadline. Which means it’s time to fire off our best/worst trade deadline predictions for the San Francisco Giants. Personally, I think they should be aggressive sellers. Trade everyone you can and throw in parts of the ballpark if that […]
One could argue that this past weekend in San Jose was one of the most exciting weekends for any of the Giants’ affiliates in recent years.

One of the magical things about writing about baseball for a living is that, against all odds, every game seems to have its own story. 162 times a year the San Francisco Giants play someone, plus a few dozen more times in the spring and, on a few blue moon occasions, a handful of times […]
Box Score After being limited to just three hits in a shutout loss last night, Milwaukee bounced back in a big way. Starting pitcher Logan Henderson was terrific, Jackson Chourio and William Contreras each had multi-hit games, Luis Lara had three RBIs, and all nine starters recorded at least one hit as the Brewers cruised […]
One night before the induction of San Francisco Giants second baseman/wheelie enthusiast Jeff Kent into the Hall of Fame, Harrison Bader had a setback in his recovery from plantar fasciitis thanks to a scooter accident. Yes, really. This is honestly far more baffling than the traffic accident that nearly blinded San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle […]
Giants starter Trevor McDonald will need to undergo Tommy John surgery, manager Tony Vitello said on Tuesday (link via Maria Guardado of MLB.com). The full UCL reconstruction typically comes with a 14-16 month recovery that’ll probably keep him out for all of 2027. This was the fear when McDonald went on the injured list last week […]
The San Francisco Giants unsteady future plans for their rotation just got murkier. On Tuesday, the team announced what many had feared for a few days: that right-handed pitcher Trevor McDonald will undergo Tommy John surgery to repair his throwing arm. McDonald, who has a 5.12 ERA and a 4.28 FIP on the year, left […]

His last start was in the Giants’ 5-4 […]
A very, very bad San Francisco Giants season has gotten quite a bit worse. On Tuesday afternoon, the San Francisco Giants announced that do-everything third baseman Casey Schmitt had been placed on the 10-Day Injured List with a torn meniscus in his left knee. Taking his place on the roster is infielder Osleivis Basabe, who […]

Giants infielder/outfielder Casey Schmitt was pulled from last night’s win over the Brewers with a knee injury. He came up lame after singling in the second inning. San Francisco is sending Schmitt for an MRI today, manager Tony Vitello told reporters, including Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area. The skipper added that Schmitt is […]
