Locked On Giants – Daily Podcast On The San Francisco Giants

The San Francisco Giants pulled this one out by the skin of their teeth, as beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-0 on a Patrick Bailey three-run, walk-off home run. Kyle Harrison pitched a gem tonight, tossing six scoreless innings and fanning five. Camilo Doval made it interesting in the ninth inning after loading the bases with only one out, but managed to get for San Francisco Giants prospect Brian Reynolds to ground into a double play to get out of the jam.

The San Francisco Giants looked like they had the makings of one of the best starting rotations in baseball. Logan Webb finished second in Cy Young voting in 2023 and is on a career-best run. Blake Snell, last year's NL Cy Young winner, sat right behind Webb in the Giants' rotation. 

But Snell is injured—a left adductor strain—and suddenly the Giants' rotation, already without Alex Cobb and Robbie Ray, is much thinner than it was. Hopefully Snell doesn't miss too much time, otherwise the SF Giants could endure more rough stretches than anticipated from their staff. 

Overall, pitching has actually been the SF Giants' biggest issue in 2024, so this news doesn't bode well. The position player group has been healthy and solid, Logan Webb, Jordan Hicks, and Keaton Winn have been very good—and Kyle Harrison has huge upside—but it's unclear if the Giants' pitching will keep the team afloat until players return from injuries.

The San Francisco Giants fell to the New York Mets today by a score of 8-2 in the final game of their three-game set. But more importantly, high-profile free agent signing Blake Snell hit the 15-day injured list, which forced the San Francisco Giants to start Ryan Walker in a bullpen game (shoutout the Gabe Kapler regime). The loss foils the San Francisco Giants opportunity to pick up their first series sweep of the season. They have an off day tomorrow before starting their series against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday.

Logan Webb delivered another Cy Young type performance tonight for the San Francisco Giants as they defeated the New York Mets 5-1 at Oracle Park. The win clinches another series win for the San Francisco Giants, who are suddenly starting to get hot. The bottom of the order continues to deliver as Mike Yastrzemski came up with another big night at the plate for the San Francisco Giants.

The San Francisco Giants squared off against a hot Mets team on Monday night with their No. 5 starter on the mound, and the Giants looked every bit the part of a team that can play with anyone. SF Giants starter Keaton Winn dominated New York over six innings, lowering his ERA to 3.54. 

The SF Giants have somewhat struggled out of the gates in 2024, but they're starting to play much better baseball. The Mets were a good test, and the test was passed in Game 1. The Giants' bats, cold to start the season, got to Jose Quintana and the game was mostly one-sided until things got slightly weird with Camilo Doval in the 9th. 

Speaking of Doval, the Giants' bullpen is new-look these last two days. Nick Avila was optioned as Luke Jackson returned from the IL, and today Mitch White was officially added to the 26-man roster with Landen Roupp being optioned to clear space.

The San Francisco Giants picked up another win at Oracle Park tonight, this time defeating the New York Mets, 5-2. Keaton Winn pitched a gem in this one, lasting 6 inning and giving up just one run and posting six strikeouts. The San Francisco Giants offense also gave Keaton Winn some run support for the second consecutive game, as he picks up his second win of the season. Michael Conforto hit a home run against his former team in this one as well.

The San Francisco Giants' series against the Arizona Diamondbacks was full of ups and downs, much like the Giants' 2024 season to date. There was good and there was bad. Ultimately, the SF Giants need to start winning home series and to crawl above the .500 mark if they want to be truly competitive, which should come with time. 

Logan Webb dominated in the first game of the series, and the Giants played a clean game in Game 3. In between, there was an ugly 17-1 loss and a loss in the finale that could've been won. 

The Giants traded for pitcher Mitch White and placed Alex Cobb on the 60-day IL after he experienced another setback. White was once quite good for the Los Angeles Dodgers, and he is expected to join the active roster, which will require a corresponding move (perhaps optioning Sean Hjelle).

The San Francisco Giants dropped the final game of their four-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks, 5-3. With the loss, the San Francisco Giants split the series 2-2, still searching for a string of consistent wins. The bottom of the lineup for the San Francisco Giants has shown some positive signs in this series, and we saw it again today with Mike Yastrzemski hitting a two-run home run. Jordan Hicks was struggling to find his control on the mound but he managed to pitch around traffic on the basepaths and finished with a decent outing on the mound. Bob Melvin was ejected as he was clearly upset with multiple questionable calls on balls and strikes.

The San Francisco Giants bounced back from their terrible loss last night with a win today over the Arizona Diamondbacks, 7-3. It was Patrick Bailey bobblehead day at Oracle Park and Patrick Bailey showed up in a big way for the San Francisco Giants, going 4-4 at the dish with a two-run splash hit. He finished a triple shy of the cycle. This might be the greatest performance by a Giant on their bobblehead day, and on 4/20, a special day in San Francisco. The win gives the San Francisco Giants a 2-1 lead over the Arizona Diamondbacks in the series, and now they can do no worse than split this series.
