Ozzie Albies has had a nightmare season, right along with the rest of the Atlanta Braves. If they do, The Athletic writes that the New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants are the two best fits for him, along with the Angels. "Perhaps the season has gone south enough for Atlanta and for Albies that a player with notoriously inexpensive team control through 2027 becomes available," The Athletic writes.

Will Atlanta actually trade him?

Speaking with NBC Sports Bay Area's Laura Britt, San Francisco Giants' Wilmer Flores recalled the age when he realized he was good at baseball.

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.

The San Francisco Giants are currently in postseason position, and they keep performing well against good teams. They just beat the Phillies for the second straight night.

Home runs in Major League Baseball have always seemed to be the centerpiece of excitement in baseball. Other plays can dazzle fanatics of the sport, but home runs draw a different level of attention to spectators. On Tuesday night, 44 home runs were hit across 15 MLB games played.

Kyle Schwarber put the Phillies on top on Tuesday against the Giants with a moonshot out to right field for a home run.

The Philadelphia Phillies have been on a tear recently, becoming one of the best teams in Major League Baseball and taking the lead in the NL East over the New York Mets in the process. Now, just before the All-Star break, Philadelphia is trying to prove that against another National League playoff contender in the San Francisco Giants.

When Rafael Devers and Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora could not see eye-to-eye, a trade was imminent. Upon his arrival, Devers said that he was willing to play wherever Giants manager Bob Melvin wanted him to. Clark spoke to Mass Live's Nick O'Malley about Devers' arrival and how the media viewed him.

(AP) — Willy Adames homered and drew a pair of bases-loaded walks, and the San Francisco Giants beat the Athletics 6-2 on Sunday night. Tyler

The upcoming MLB draft will be the first under new San Francisco Giants president of baseball operations Buster Posey. Through free agency into the 2025 campaign, Posey hasn't shown hesitance to be aggressive in building a contending team. After signing shortstop Willy Adames to the largest contract in franchise history, Posey quickly made a bigger splash and topped that by acquiring Rafael Devers in a blockbuster trade with the Boston Red Sox. Neither has immediately shown dividends, and in the case of Adames, that's been all season long.

San Francisco Giants star Rafael Devers refused to play first base with the Boston Red Sox.

The San Francisco Giants have been about as average as any team in the MLB over the last few years. The year before this stretch, the Giants won 107 games and finished in first place in the National League West. One major difference existed between the 2021 squad and the teams of the last three years; Buster Posey was no longer the team's starting catcher.

It's a bit surprising to see the Phillies only at +125 on the money line for Tuesday's clash with the Giants. The pitching matchup of Taijuan Walker versus Robbie Ray suggests there should be even more of a price disparity. Ray's been pretty good for San Francisco this season with a 9-3 mark, a 2.68 ERA, and 117 strikeouts. If there's one reason for hope for the Phils, it's the fact that they're the only team to score more than three earned runs off Ray all season.
