Where we tend to talk about the recent past a lot
Good morning, baseball fans! It’s a new week of San Francisco Giants baseball, so let’s take a look at what’s on deck for the week. The Giants are off today, but they’re heading back home to Oracle Park for both series this week. First up, the Los Angeles Dodgers are coming to town tomorrow for […]
It had been a laborious weekend for the Giants bats. After two — count ‘em two — high intensity games in which they scored 17 total runs on 31 hits over 21 innings, the offense looked relatively exhausted in Sunday’s 3-0 loss to Washington. Spring’s bipolar nature abruptly swapped the tank-top heat of summer for […]
It’s series finale time! The San Francisco Giants are wrapping up a nine-game road trip today, and attempting to end it on a high note. Left-hander Robbie Ray will try to lead them to a happy cross-country flight. Ray makes his fifth start of the season, and is 2-2 with a 2.42 ERA, a 4.69 […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Another week of San Francisco Giants baseball comes to a close today. Which means it’s time to pick our favorite highlights of the week! I have to be honest, as of the time this is being written, they have lost every game this week. And my week includes last weekend because […]
After a nice win in the opener on Friday, the San Francisco Giants will try to win their series against the Washington Nationals today, and set themselves up for a sweep tomorrow. A series win sure would be nice. Haven’t had one of those in a while. Taking the mound for the Giants is right-hander […]
In case you missed it, the San Francisco Giants won their 8th baseball game of the 2026 season last night and scored 10 runs in the process just to make us all feel even better about it. It was their 20th game of the season, though, so there’s the whole matter of their 8-12 record. […]
Heliot Ramos had something to prove in his return to the starting line-up in D.C.. Pretty early on in this young season, imposter syndrome appeared to have set in. The first left fielder to start in back-to-back Opening Days for the Giants in nearly 20 years had been playing as if he was just another […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Another week of San Francisco Giants baseball is drawing to a close, which means it’s time to pick our Player of the Week! They say there’s a song for any and every occasion, and I guess the one for today is “Slim Pickins” by Sabrina Carpenter. Because there was not a […]
The San Francisco Giants begin a three-game road series against the Washington Nationals this afternoon. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Logan Webb, who enters today’s game with a 5.25 ERA, 3.20 FIP, with 21 strikeouts to nine walks in 24 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ 6-2 loss […]
Thursday was a good day for the San Francisco Giants, as they finally won a game. It wasn’t as good of a day for their Minor League Baseball affiliates, though, who we have grown accustomed to winning, winning, and winning some more this year. They did a little bit of that on Thursday, but there […]
The Washington Nationals are a collection of one of the cuter memes in recent memory. Daylen Lile. Jorbit Vivas. Keibert Ruiz. None of these words are in the Bible? Oh… what’s that? These are the names of some of the players? Hmm, that makes a lot more sense. Well, look, getting to know the Nationals […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants are on the road again this weekend, so we’re going to do another temp check. Which is maybe not ideal timing after the week that was, but I feel like they could maybe benefit from the feedback of the fanbase at this point. This team is not […]
On Wednesday, for the first time since Friday, all four of the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates were in action. And, not for the first (or second) time this year, they all won! Fun times on the farm. Let’s jump into it. Link to the 2026 McCovey Chronicles Community Prospect List (CPL) All […]
The Cincinnati Reds managed only one hit in nine innings Thursday afternoon. And that includes two bench-clearing squabbles. Landon Roupp struck out six Reds in six one-hit innings and a trio of relievers allowed just one baserunner in the San Francisco Giants’ 3-0 win over the Reds. Jung Hoo lee went 3-for-4 and delivered an […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Since the San Francisco Giants play ridiculously early today (by west coast standards), we’re going to go ahead and roll the Gamethread in with the BP today. The Giants wrap up their three-game road series against the Cincinnati Reds in just a couple of hours. Taking the mound for the Giants […]
The slumping San Francisco Giants retooled their outfield before Wednesday’s game, sending Harrison Bader and Jared Oliva to the injured list and recalling Drew Gilbert and Will Brennan from Sacramento. Unfortunately, they didn’t retool the way they pitch to Cincinnati Reds rookie Sal Stewart. Stewart gave the Reds a 3-0 lead with a three-run home […]
The most telling statistic in the San Francisco Giants’ 2-1 loss to the Cincinnati Reds is the two teams’ pitch counts. Four Giants pitchers combined to throw 145 pitches in eight innings. The Reds got through nine innings against the free-swinging Giants in just 111 pitches, an average of 12.3 per inning. The Giants had […]
The San Francisco Giants continue their three-game road series against the Cincinnati Reds this afternoon. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Tyler Mahle, who enters today’s game with a 4.30 ERA, 4.32 FIP, with 15 strikeouts to seven walks in 14.2 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ 5-0 win […]
The San Francisco Giants have had the worst outfield in the Major Leagues this year, and now it’s getting a shakeup. However, it’s not the performance that is causing that shakeup, but rather injuries. On Wednesday, ahead of their game against the Cincinnati Reds, the Giants announced that starting center fielder Harrison Bader and fourth […]
Only three of the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates were in action on Tuesday, as poor AAA Sacramento just can’t get in a game. The River Cats had both of their weekend games cancelled due to rain, which followed them as they traveled north from Sacramento to Tacoma, postponing their game on Tuesday. […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants may be off to a bit of a rocky start this season. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t silver linings in progress. One of those would be starting pitcher Landen Roupp. Broadcaster Mike Krukow made an appearance on KNBR’s “Murph & Markus” show earlier this week and […]
The San Francisco Giants head to Ohio today to begin a three-game series against the Cincinnati Reds. Taking the mound for the Giants will be left-hander Robbie Ray, who enters today’s game with a 2.08 ERA, 3.65 FIP, with 18 strikeouts to six walks in 17.1 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ […]
The San Francisco Giants have finally run into a team they’re hitting better than here through the season’s first couple of weeks. If you ignore the Yankees series, the Giants are actually around a league average offense (96 wRC+) in their last 13 games. Meanwhile, the Reds are the worst in the National League (76 […]
The San Francisco Giants have, somewhat unconventionally, only used 27 players this year, which means they’ve only made one move involving the Major League roster. That move was forced on them, after reliever José Buttó was placed on the Injured List, and replaced by Blade Tidwell. It’s the time of the year where teams start […]
It’s that time again: the mega roundup to recap Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates. There will be a lot of words, so proceed with caution! Monday is an off day in the Minors, so all four teams will get back in action on Tuesday. Link to the […]
