Giants Receive Solid Midseason Grade Despite Recent Inconsistent Performance
Coming into the 2025 MLB regular season, not much was expected from the San Francisco Giants. Under new leadership with Buster Posey taking over as president of baseball operations, many expected it would take some time for him to leave his imprint on the roster. A three-time World Series winner as a player, getting the Giants back to that level of prominence, many people thought would take some time. Since Posey retired as a player following the 2021 campaign, San Francisco has yet to really challenge for a playoff spot, winning between 79-81 games all three years.
LA and San Francisco transit agencies feud ahead of Dodgers-Giants series
When a rivalry is as legendary as the one between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants, apparently even public transit agencies get involved. On Monday, Caltrain, a commuter rail service that runs from San Jose through San Francisco, posted a TikTok mocking L.A.'s car-centric reputation. In the video, two people dressed in Giants gear decide between driving or taking Caltrain to Oracle Park.
Giants Pitcher Justin Verlander Accomplishes Unfortunate Feat
The San Francisco Giants have had a great season and are coming off an impressive series win against the Philadelphia Phillies. Despite a really poor end to June, the Giants have turned things around in July so far. With a massive three-game series coming up against the Los Angeles Dodgers before the All-Star break, San Francisco would love to build some more momentum. Both Robbie Ray and Logan Webb have been fantastic, with both making the All-Star team.
SF Giants face slumping Dodgers to end first half — with changes on both sides of rivalry
The Giants and Dodgers enter their three-game set to end the first half on different trajectories. San Francisco (51-43) bounced back from its worst stretch of the season and has won six of its last eight games, catapulting back to second place in the NL West. Los Angeles (56-38), by contrast, has lost six straight after being swept by the Houston Astros and Milwaukee Brewers. Manager Bob Melvin, though, isn't taking much stock in which team is surging and which team is slumping.
Undrafted SF Giants prospect Trent Harris heading to Futures Game with 'unicorn-esque pitch'
When the Giants promoted top prospect Bryce Eldridge to Triple-A Sacramento last month, president of baseball operations Buster Posey made sure a less-heralded prospect received his just due. “I do want to say Trent Harris, too, moving up to Triple-A is throwing the ball extremely well,” Posey said.
Revisiting Massive Giants-Red Sox Rafael Devers Trade After All Pieces Have Debuted
It's been just under a month since the shocking trade between the San Francisco Giants and Boston Red Sox that sent Rafael Devers to the Bay Area. The Giants sent a haul that included top prospect James Tibbs III, pitcher Kyle Harrison, pitcher Jordan Hicks and pitching prospect Jose Bello to the Red Sox in exchange for Devers.
Giants Didn't Do Enough to Help Justin Verlander in Last Start, Says Bob Melvin
The San Francisco Giants started off the 2025 season like they were shot out of a cannon, absolutely tearing up whoever they faced and putting together multiple game-winning plays in the late part of matchups. Currently, only five games separate them and the Los Angeles Dodgers, which is not a huge margin given how exceptional those Dodgers are. Hitting has been streaky, which is one of the major concerns with the team, as sometimes they rip the cover off the ball all game long, and in some other games, they just cannot get anything done. One example of the latter came during Justin Verlander's start on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Phillies, where he would go six innings and only allow two earned runs, while his team scored none.
Giants could trade for division rival's 3.41 ERA pitcher to replace Justin Verlander
Maybe there's an argument to be made that Justin Verlander has been a bit unlucky at times this season for the San Francisco Giants. ESPN's MLB insider Jeff Passan has a suggestion: Merrill Kelly of the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Bryce Harper after slump-busting game vs. Giants: 'I'm really good. I mean, I really am'
Bryce Harper broke out of a slump with a career-best four extra-base hits — and then issued a reminder about his place in the game. The two-time NL MVP and eight-time All-Star missed most of June with inflammation in his right wrist. After the game, he stressed the importance of getting ahead in the count. Harper has 346 homers in 14 seasons and connected against Verlander — who's in his 20th season — for the first time.
Phillies' Bryce Harper issues confident claim after hitting 3 doubles vs. Giants
Right fielder Bryce Harper and the Philadelphia Phillies didn't just dodge a sweep from the San Francisco Giants —they came back swinging. A day after suffering their second loss in the series, Harper took the lead in a commanding 13-0 victory that felt like a fresh start for the whole team. He accomplished this with four impressive opposite-field extra-base hits, marking the first time he's achieved that feat in a single game. “I'm excellent. I mean, I am,” Harper said after the game, as reported by NBC Sports Philadelphia. It wasn't just arrogance—it was a bold statement. After being mired in right wrist inflammation for most of June, the 32-year-old slugger made a strong revival in his return
Giants' Justin Verlander's 'difficult' admission after 15th winless start
San Francisco Giants pitcher Justin Verlander made a candid admission after another frustrating outing, marking his 15th winless start of the 2025 season. Despite showing flashes of dominance, the Giants veteran continues to search for answers.
