Philadelphia has been the center of the sports world this summer, and the 76ers signing LeBron James on Friday put an exclamation mark on that.
The City of Brotherly Love has once again landed a top free agent. It all started in 2019 when the Phillies signed Bryce Harper, the Eagles then dipped into the free agency pool to steal Saquon Barkley from the Giants in 2024, and now LeBron will call Philadelphia home for the next two seasons.
So, of course, the obvious angle is: How Does Th...
On Thursday, for the last time in 2026, all seven of the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates were in action. Here’s everything that happened! Link to the 2026 McCovey Chronicles Community Prospect List (CPL) All listed positions in the roundup are the position played in that particular game. News There’s huge — albeit […]
No reason to be cute with the headline or insightful with the commentary. These are two bad teams beyond redemption. The Giants have had just 2 winning seasons since 2016 (2016 & 2021), but the Angels haven’t had any — 2026 will mark their 11th consecutive losing season… basically, they’ve been losers since they fully […]
Good morning, baseball fans! San Francisco Giants baseball is back in the bay this weekend, so it’s time to take a look at what Oracle Park has on deck for fans who are planning to attend. First up, Friday is going to be a busy night at the ballpark. There are two separate special events […]
The Kansas City Royals are on a roll in the second half of the season. They just swept the San Francisco Giants, and a record-tying 437-foot home run became the biggest talking point of their 5-4 victory in the series finale. While Salvador Perez was celebrating franchise history after tying the Royals’ all-time home run […]

The Giants have placed catcher Eric Haase on release waivers, relays Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News. San Francisco designated him for assignment last week when Daniel Susac made his return from the injured list. Haase has spent the last three months on the big league roster. The Giants selected his contract when Susac […]
None of the San Francisco Giants three rookie ball teams were in action on Wednesday, but their A-ball affiliates played five total games, thanks to a doubleheader. Here’s everything that happened on the farm on Wednesday. Link to the 2026 McCovey Chronicles Community Prospect List (CPL) All listed positions in the roundup are the position […]
This week’s MLB Mailbag will tackle questions on a potential (likely?) deadline sell-off for the Jays, the extent to which starting pitchers can hurt their stock with poor outings leading into the deadline, some possible White Sox targets, the Giants’ veteran trade candidates, the Pirates’ closing need, Royals outfielder Lane Thomas and more! Let’s get […]
One of this season’s most coveted trade chips will be San Francisco Giants infielder Luis Arraez. The 29-year-old is on a one-year deal and on pace for one of the best seasons of his career, making him a prime candidate to be relocated come the August 3 deadline. Arraez isn’t the prototypical All-Star bat. He […]

This SF Giants fan named her son after a legendary Giants player. Her husband proposed at a game. Now she's disappointed in the team.
Last week, I wondered how many wins the Giants would need to pick up in this second part of the season to wind up with a somewhat respectable record. You know, a record that True Believers “legs” to stand on when proselytizing about their favorite team. But what if the team loses 100+ games? Some […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Today is an off-day for the San Francisco Giants, and there hasn’t been a lot of fun to be had lately with the way the games have been going. So instead of focusing on non-fun stuff, I thought we’d visit a video that the Giants’ social media team put out a […]

A very explosive seventh inning accounted for all but two of the runs today including a 2-run homer from Salvador Perez to tie George Brett’s franchise record. Kansas City scored five in that inning to complete the sweep 5-4 this afternoon. Both the Royals and the Giants were unable to do almost anything offensively for […]
Just five games for the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates on Tuesday, as AA Richmond had their game postponed due to weather, while the Dominican Summer League squads faced off against each other. We’ll throw in Monday’s rookie ball games into this recap as well, especially since those seasons are wrapping up. Now, […]
Kansas City has come out of the All-Star break 4-1 and are going for the sweep today. Unfortunately, everyone is getting hurt and the run differential is still negative over those five games because of the blowout on Sunday. Jac Caglianone is out after hurting his shoulder last night and Bobby Witt Jr. is going […]
The SF Giants have still not written a single apology for their Pride Night debacle. So this longtime fan wrote one for them.
The San Francisco Giants are a rotten, poisoned, blighted organization. I offer to the jury, by way of evidence, the following exhibit: Monday evening, a representative of the Giants saw a story from the San Francisco Chronicle about fans who still feel hurt and angry over the mess the organization made of its annual Pride Night celebration , and the front office's tepid, quarter-hearted, wildly inadequate response to public outcry. That team representative then logged onto social media so tha...
The San Francisco Giants conclude this road series against the Kansas City Royals this morning. Since it’s a brunch game, I figured we’d just combine the BP and game thread for today. Taking the mound for the Giants is right-hander Landen Roupp, who enters today’s game with a 3.98 ERA, 3.33 FIP, with 106 strikeouts […]
With 11 Major League Baseball teams hovering within three games of .500 while even the mighty Dodgers have cobbled together a losing record thus far in July, the 2026 World Series may well hinge on which clubs are able to make the perfect trade deadline pickups.
Es evidente que los Mets o los Giants están vendiendo, pero más allá de eso, quién sabe.

Baseball games, even walk-offs, are not decided by one play. And, more pertinent to the sweeping point that I will eventually make at some point in this story, baseball games certainly are not decided by one lack of a play, even though our minds often wander the “what if” caves all night. There’s some damn […]
The All-Star break may have been just what the Royals needed. Kansas City won their fourth game in five tries since the Midsummer Classic with a 3-2 victory over the Giants on Tuesday night. Luinder Avila was solid over 6.1 innings, and Nick Loftin provided the go-ahead run as Alex Lange was able to slam […]
Roscoe Mapps was a milestone figure when the SF Giants rainbow caps launched. He’s now entangled in the team’s Pride Night controversy.
The San Francisco Giants continue this three-game road series against the Kansas City Royals this afternoon. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Tyler Mahle, who enters today’s game with a 5.31 ERA, 4.46 FIP, with 73 strikeouts to 32 walks in 78 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ 4-2 […]
