Latest news and updates about the Giants
The San Francisco Giants Opening Day battery for the last three seasons is as gone as gone can be. Hours after announcing the shocking trade of Patrick Bailey to the Cleveland Guardians, the Giants placed the star of their rotation, two-time All-Star Logan Webb, on the 15-Day Injured List. Webb, who has led the National […]
The San Francisco Giants have decided to part ways with their one-sided catcher Patrick Bailey. The two-time Gold Glove winning catcher will be shipped to the Guardians for left-handed pitching prospect Matt Wilkinson (who’s nickname is reportedly “Tugboat”) and the 29th overall pick in the 2026 draft. If Wilkinson is a tugboat, then Bailey has […]
Going into Friday night, the San Francisco Giants had lost 8 of their last 9 games. They lost 8 of their last 9 games because the San Francisco Giants can’t score runs. The San Francisco Giants can’t hit for power. The San Francisco Giants can only hit singles and ground into double plays. They can’t […]
It’s the start of a three-game series between the San Francisco Giants and the Pittsburgh Pirates. Hopefully it goes better than the last few series have gone. For the Giants, lefty Robbie Ray will make his eighth start of the year. The two-time All-Star is 2-4 on the season, with a 2.95 ERA, a 4.47 […]
Controversial headline? Sure. But maybe it’s time to have the conversation, because as Logan Webb goes, so goes the Giants. And, uh, in case you haven’t been watching closely, the 2026 San Francisco Giants are seemingly going nowhere. By some measures, Logan Webb is having the worst start to a season of his wonderful career. […]
There are five San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball teams in-season right now — the Dominican Summer League season doesn’t start for a few more weeks — and all five were in action on Thursday. It was a fun, fun day, so let’s jump straight into it. Link to the 2026 McCovey Chronicles Community Prospect […]
Is this a series featuring two teams headed in opposite directions or early season mirages? The Pittsburgh Pirates entered the offseason fresh off a seventh consecutive losing season. Their 434-598 record over that span was the second-worst in MLB behind only the Rockies (402-629). A team ERA of 4.58 (26th). 29th in runs scored! What […]

Meet the Mets Thanks to their use of a lineup that looked like it belonged in a spring training road game and the continued inclusion of Craig Kimbrel on their roster, the Mets fell to the Rockies by a 6-2 score yesterday afternoon. As a result, they wake up today tied with the Giants for […]
The San Diego Padres have had plenty of games that started this way. It was a pitcher’s duel for the whole of Matt Waldron and Adrian Houser’s respective outings. The two pitched through the first six innings giving up a solo shot each. But Houser was (surprisingly) lifted in the seventh after only 74 pitches […]
Ty France came in to pinch-hit in the top of the seventh inning and hit a two-out, two-run triple to score Fernando Tatis Jr. and Ramon Laureano to give the San Diego Padres a 3-1 lead over the San Francisco Giants. Xander Bogaerts, who entered the game in the bottom of the seventh inning as […]
Wednesday was Career Day at Oracle Park, a day where students could “learn about careers in sports and media with an exclusive Q&A with San Francisco Giants Front Office executives.” They got to see the Giants lose their second straight to the San Diego Padres, 5-1, a game where the team and the organization were […]

The San Francisco Giants conclude their three-game series against the San Diego Padres this afternoon, and they’re hoping for a much-needed series win. We’re also hoping for that.

The San Diego Padres needed a win like this one. Badly. The Friars torched the San Francisco Giants, 10-5, to force the rubber match. After a dismal showing from their offense lately, it was good to watch the Padres hit double-digits against a division rival after only scoring two in the series opener. It was […]
The San Diego Padres found themselves trailing the San Francisco Giants 4-1 after two innings and it was not looking for the Padres, who had Walker Buehler on the mound. However the new-look San Diego lineup generated consistent offense, which resulted in a 10-5 win over the Giants. Multiple Padres had multi-hit games, including Sung-Mun […]
The San Francisco Giants’ offense came to life on Tuesday, and it is critical that you understand that “come to life” is a relative term. Life, in living and breathing human being terms, may be binary, but in baseball parlance it is not. For the Giants, coming to life means they scored exactly five runs, […]
Near the end of Tuesday’s telecast of the San Diego Padres’ 10-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants, broadcaster Duane Kuiper tried to look on the bright side of Matt Chapman’s 0-for-4 night. “If it’s any consolation,” Kuiper said, “Chapman’s had the longest out in this game.” That’s how hard it was to find a […]
Sung-Mun Song made his MLB debut in Mexico City against the Arizona Diamondbacks when the San Diego Padres added him to their roster as the 27th man. Song made an appearance as a pinch runner but did not do much more than that. Song changed that in his first MLB start when he hit a […]
The San Francisco Giants play game two of this three-game home series against the San Diego Padres tonight from Oracle Park, and they’re looking to take the series win after a 3-2 victory on Monday. Taking the mound for the Giants is their ace, righty Logan Webb, who is making his eighth start of the […]

Before the second game of the series against the San Francisco Giants, the Padres made a series of roster changes. Second baseman Jake Cronenworth went to the seven-day injured list with concussion symptoms and infielder Sung-Mun Song was recalled from Triple-A El Paso. Cronenworth was hit on the jaw by a pitch in the series […]
The San Francisco Giants are swapping right-handed pitchers ahead of Tuesday’s home game against the San Diego Padres. A few hours before the game, the team announced that right-handed starter Trevor McDonald had been optioned to AAA Sacramento, while right-handed reliever Joel Peguero had been activated off the 15-Day Injured List. It might seem like […]
For so many reasons, the San Diego Padres should have won. The San Francisco Giants were coming off a road trip in which they lost all six games, the Friars had one of their aces on the mound in Randy Vásquez and San Francisco had the rookie Trevor McDonald making his 2026 debut. It all […]
