Are the Giants playing for 2nd or 3rd place in the NL West?

This past Wednesday, Brady posted the latest SB Nation Reacts poll question of which of their non-Dodgers NL West Division rivals are the bigger threat this season, and now we have that result. What are the motivations for this poll response? It’s an important question. Do they see the Diamondbacks as a likely second place […]

Sunday BP: Highlight of the week

Good morning, baseball fans! It’s another Sunday of San Francisco Giants baseball, which means it’s time to hear your favorite highlights of the week! I’ve given Willy Adames a ton of love this week, so I think I’m going to go with Jung Hoo Lee’s 2-RBI double from Tuesday’s 9-3 win over the San Diego […]

Mets score nine, Holmes throw seven scoreless in win

The Mets have been a little uneven to start the 2026 campaign, putting it on Paul Skenes on Opening Day but struggling to hit in the subsequent games; before last night’s ten-run breakout that is. The Mets kept the momentum going tonight, winning 9-0 over the Giants, with a funky lineup that lacked Juan Soto, […]

Very bad!

Did you think Friday was tough? Well, let me introduce you to Saturday — it was so much worse! Bad defense, no offense, frustrated pitching. Sound familiar? Believe it or not, there was a point at the beginning of the Giants’ 9-0 loss to the Mets when things were actually going pretty swell.  Landen Roupp […]

4/4 Gamethread: Giants vs. Mets

After a very good series opener on Thursday, and a very bad follow-up on Friday, the San Francisco Giants will look to take the lead in their four-game set with the New York Mets this evening. Taking the mound for the Giants is right-hander Landen Roupp, who will look to reprise his phenomenal season debut […]

Trés Mahle!

Translation: Very bad, Trevor Mahle. Not good. Real dice-y right from the jump. First inning — uh oh.   Mahle has two cards tucked up his sleeve — a split-finger and four-seam fastball — and in his second start as a Giant, he couldn’t figure out a way to effectively sneak them out of his hand. […]

Saturday BP: Player of the Week

Good morning, baseball fans! We’ve officially had our first full week of San Francisco Giants baseball this season, so it’s time to pick our Player of the Week! I think it will come as no surprise that my pick for this week is none other than Willy Adames! Sure, the majority of his numbers for […]

Mets Morning News: Is it Sotover?

Meet the Mets After losing three straight games due to some fairly inept offensive performances, the Mets finally broke through with ten runs against the Giants last night, with Marcus Semien hitting his first homer for his new team and Francisco Alvarez adding a pair of his own. Nolan McLean, meanwhile, did not allow a […]

Offense heats up, but Soto departs early

There was a lot to like about tonight’s relatively smooth and easy 10-3 victory over the Giants at Oracle Park in San Francisco. The Mets’ offense, which had been floundering, finally had a big day. Marcus Semien hit his first home run as a Met and Francisco Alvarez went deep twice. Semien and Bo Bichette […]

Juan Soto leaves game in first inning with right calf tightness

After hitting a single in the top of the first inning and then running from first to third, Juan Soto was removed from the Mets’ game in San Francisco before the team took the field in the bottom of the inning. SNY showed the replay of Soto running the bases, and the 27-year-old outfielder grimaced […]

4/3 Gamethread: Giants vs. Mets

The San Francisco Giants continue their four-game series against the New York Mets tonight at Oracle Park. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Tyler Mahle, who finished the 2025 season with a 2.18 ERA, 3.37 FIP, with 66 strikeouts to 29 walks in 86.2 innings pitched. His first start this season was […]

Giants Minor League Baseball roundup, April 2: Some glorious debuts

Well, I lied to you. I hope you’ll forgive me. In yesterday’s roundup, I said that Thursday would finally bring the return of multiple-game days days for the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates. Turns out I was wrong, as AAA Sacramento had their game rained out and postponed. Actually, it apparently stopped raining, […]

With momentum heading into first road series, Padres turn to Boston

The San Diego Padres needed a win like Wednesday afternoon’s. As the Padres bludgeoned the San Francisco Giants, 7-1, to salvage the series finale, they finally put together an offense that matched what it looks like on paper. The club (after only recording nine extra-base hits going into Wednesday’s contest) had five XBH, including four […]

Friday BP: Oracle Park promotions this weekend

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! Friday Friday night will be a special event night for San Jose State University! As always, special events require special event tickets, which fans […]

Mets struggle in San Francisco with yet another loss

The Mets came into their series against the Giants already scuffling a bit. They had just lost two straight games to the Cardinals, sitting at an even 3-3 record six games into the season. David Peterson was coming off a solid first start of the season against the Pirates, facing off against former Cy Young […]

4/2 Gamethread: Giants vs. Mets

The San Francisco Giants welcome the New York Mets to Oracle Park tonight to begin a four-game series.

His first start this season […]

Giants place José Buttó on the IL, call up Blade Tidwell

After Wednesday’s loss to the San Diego Padres, it seemed all but certain that the San Francisco Giants would place right-handed reliever José Buttó on the Injured List at some point today. And indeed, on Thursday afternoon, a few hours before starting a series against the New York Mets, the Giants announced that Buttó was […]

Giants-Mets Series Preview: Good vs. Good enough

Being a Mets fan must be exhausting. Being of New York is a status symbol, which carries privilege but also responsibility. The Mets are expected to win! And short of that, they’re expected to do everything they can to win. And if they don’t, there’s no choice as a fan but to be miserable. Plenty […]
