Brewers one win from pennant
The San Francisco Giants will reportedly pursue Japanese pitchers Hiromi Itoh and Kaima Taira, assuming they are posted this winter.
The Automated Ball Strike (ABS) Challenge System was newly implemented in the majors this season and changed the game for the better. José Caballero made MLB history on Opening Night, tapping his helmet after a questionable strike call to trigger the very first ABS challenge during the Yankees’ season opener against the Giants. Although the […]
The Giants are among the big league teams who have scouted Hiromi Itoh and Kaima Taira, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. The Japanese right-handers are expected to be posted for MLB clubs this offseason, even though the impending lockout will sure interrupt their 45-day posting window unless a deal is reached between […]
Today’s Reflections THE DODGERS LOSE! THE DODGERS LOSE! THEEEEEE DODGERS LOSE! (I know that was John Sterling’s phrase, but I respectfully enjoyed — I mean, borrowed it) And Cleveland is still up two games to one after Friday’s game was rained out. Game 4 tonight. Things get better and better! (except it doesn’t involve the […]
The Athletic's Minnesota Twins insider Dan Hayes proposed a wild Rafael Devers trade idea.
In my glorious middle school prime, the be-all and end-all of t-shirt-based playground bravado was centered around the output of the No Fear T-Shirt Corporation. On the mean streets boulevards of Pleasant Hill, California, I learned valuable life lessons from reading my classmates’ aggressive clothing. I learned that if you died with the most toys, […]
It’s a tale as old as time: An All-Star left-handed starter for the Los Angeles Dodgers is dominating in a playoff start until it gets to the 7th inning. He throws a lot of pitches, maybe gets a little tired, and meanwhile Dave Roberts or Don Mattingly leaves him until disaster strikes. Usually, that pitcher […]
The Phillies made a trade with the San Francisco Giants this trade deadline in which the headliner was Luis Arraez. With an offense that would be considered “moribund” at the time of the deal, getting Arraez was supposed to help revive them (narrator: it did not help revive them). To make the deal happen, the […]

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 […]
