Latest news and updates about the Giants
On Friday, we got confirmation that San Francisco would be the host city for Major League Baseball’s 2028 All-Star Game. It’s very cool news and it gives us all something to look forward to as we wait for the Giants’ next competitive window to open in 2030. And, of course, it’s more than just the […]
There was a time when it seemed like Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer would be building blocks for the Boston Red Sox for the foreseeable future, but that is no longer the case after they traded the latter to the San Francisco Giants.
Last week, SB Nation Reacts polled Giants fans with a surprisingly complicated question: Who should be the starting second baseman next year? Casey Schmitt had been penciled in for that position post-Luis Arraez trade, but his meniscus had other plans. Still, the idea that he’d simply take the position following rehab and possibly to start […]
Did Buster Posey’s gamble in trading Gold Glove catcher Patrick Bailey over three months ago pay off? Since very little about this team makes sense (and even less of it has been successful), skepticism ought to be warranted; but, that hasn’t been the case. I think it was perhaps foolish to trade him, but the […]
Buster Posey acknowledges his players have a responsibility to fans in a recent interview. But he still can't say 'gay' or address our community.
The San Francisco Giants fell well short of the expectations set for the team ahead of the 2026 MLB season. […]

The San Francisco Giants need to shake things up after such a horrific season.
The San Francisco Giants, as teams that are functionally eliminated from postseason contention should be doing, have turned to a youth movement in recent weeks. And that youth movement is taking another step forward. According to ESPN’s Jeff Passan, the Giants are calling up 23-year old left-handed pitcher Matt “Tugboat” Wilkinson. The Giants have an […]
The Giants are planning to promote pitching prospect Matt Wilkinson for his major league debut, Jeff Passan of ESPN reports. Wilkinson, nicknamed “Tugboat,” is not on the 40-man roster and will thus need to have his contract selected from Triple-A Sacramento. San Francisco’s 40-man roster is full at the moment, but the Giants have multiple […]

The San Francisco Giants lost yesterday. They lost to the Colorado Rockies, specifically. The Colorado Rockies, who are one of the few teams in baseball as bad as the Giants. They lost the game and, in turn, they lost the series. It was a home series. I’m beginning to think that they’re not that good […]
The Rockies and Giants found themselves in a tight ball game through five. Then the Rockies pulled away. Colorado overcame a poor start from Gabriel Hughes, drew 10 walks and scored nine runs over the final five innings to beat the San Francisco Giants 13-7 at Oracle Park. The Rockies improved to 50-74, while San […]

Colorado enters today at 49-74, two games behind the 51-72 Giants for fourth place in the NL West. The Rockies are bad. I know the Rockies are bad. But I am still completely invested in these guys. And for all the ugliness in the standings, there is still plenty worth caring about today: A win […]
The San Diego Padres approached the MLB trade deadline by winning five of six games against the Colorado Rockies and San Francisco Giants.
