Latest news and updates about the Giants
The Padres announced that left-hander Robbie Ray has been added to the active roster after being acquired in a trade with the Giants earlier this week.

Apologies for not having a weekend Minor League Baseball roundup. With the San Francisco Giants being so active at the deadline, I just wasn’t able to find the time to cover the weekend’s games. But I’m here to talk about what went down on Tuesday! Just five games for the Giants affiliates, as AA Richmond […]

The San Diego Padres made a statement at the 2026 MLB trade deadline by acquiring Robbie Ray from the San Francisco Giants. A.J.

Rangers 5, Giants 4
Good morning, baseball fans! Since the San Francisco Giants have a morning game today, I thought we’d go ahead and just combine the BP and Gamethreads for today. Unfortunately, as of the time this is being written, neither team has announced a starting pitcher. I would imagine that is probably because neither team is entirely […]
You follow the San Francisco Giants, so you’re familiar with bad baseball. You’re well aware of it from watching the Giants, both this year and in many other years. But you’ve also become keenly alert to bad baseball through divisional foes such as the woeful Colorado Rockies, who, in most years, make you feel a […]
The Texas Rangers scored five runs while the San Francisco Giants scored four runs. About an hour ago, with Texas up 2-0 and with MacKenzie Gore fresh off a six shutout innings start, I started tackling this as though the Rangers were going to win. Then big deadline acquisition Chase Silseth allowed a two-run home […]
Buster Posey and Zack Minasian did quite well at the trade deadline yesterday, but where does that leave the San Francisco Giants today and beyond? In the midst of another rebuild. Buster Posey might not call it that, and the Giants have strenuously objected to such a practice in the past, but make no mistake: […]
Jackson Jobe is expected to rejoin the Detroit Tigers rotation during their upcoming road series against the San Francisco Giants.
The San Francisco Giants continue this three-game road series against the Texas Rangers this afternoon.

The 2026 MLB trade deadline is in the books, and it was the most active the San Francisco Giants have been in a very long time. For that matter, I covered the Giants for the entirety of Farhan Zaidi’s churn-driven reign, and I can’t remember a period of activity like what we saw from the […]
The Philadelphia Phillies added one of the more efficient hitters in MLB after acquiring Luis Arraez in a trade with the San Francisco Giants. It’s a move that gives the club a strong left-handed hitter, which is something analysts and reporters have claimed the team needed for the playoffs. On Tuesday, starting pitcher Aaron Nola […] The post Phillies’ Aaron Nola reveals who is most under pressure after Luis Arraez trade appeared first on ClutchPoints .
PHILADELPHIA — The freshly acquired Luis Arraez, a three-time batting champion and contact extraordinaire, will bat cleanup in his first game for his new club.

Prior to the second game of the three-game series, the Giants announced that infielder Eddys Leonard had been called up from AAA Sacramento. Leonard was […]
The Boston Red Sox made one of the most head-turning moves before the August 3 deadline after trading former top prospect Marcelo Mayer to the San Francisco Giants for reliever Erik Miller. While it was a surprise to some, apparently ex-Red Sox star pitcher Jonathan Papelbon is happy to see Mayer leave. Early Tuesday morning, […] The post Jonathan Papelbon sounds off on Red Sox’s Marcelo Mayer trade appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Giants announced that they have selected the contract of infielder/outfielder Eddys Leonard. Francys Romero of BeisbolFR reported the move prior to the official announcement. The Giants traded six players on deadline day and then activated five guys to fill those spots, so they played last night’s game a man short. They had one opening […]
Recently, the Atlanta Braves had a quiet MLB trade deadline, to the frustration of many fans. The Braves technically did something to address their starting pitching problem by acquiring Tyler Mahle from the San Francisco Giants, but it was still an underwhelming trade deadline for a team that clearly needed some revamping.

The Philadelphia Phillies acquired second baseman Luis Arraez in a trade with the San Francisco Giants on Monday.
