What a night for Robbie Ray.

Robbie Ray threw his first complete game since 2017, Rafael Devers had three RBIs and the San Francisco Giants beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-2 on Thursday night. The teams split the four-game series, with the Giants winning the final two. Ray (9-3) retired the first 12 batters before Eugenio Suarez led off the fifth inning with his 27th homer of the season to cut San Francisco's lead to 4-1.

The Giants went into their series finale at Chase Field with a noticeably depleted bullpen. Last night's 6-5 win, 10-inning win required manager Bob Melvin to use five relievers: Erik Miller, Spencer Bivens, Randy Rodríguez, Tyler Rogers and Camilo Doval. Doval, in particular, blew a save in the ninth before locking down a win in the 10th, throwing multiple innings for the first time in three years. With that backdrop, Robbie Ray gave the bullpen the entire night off.

Braxton Roxby appreciated the well-wishers and enthusiastic reactions of family and friends after his promotion to Class Triple-A in the San Francisco Giants organization. But the Windber Area High School graduate took a more measured approach to the news. The right-handed pitcher worked out in Richmond, Virginia, packed his bags and then embarked on a seven-hour flight to Sacramento, ...

Notes on Week 14

By weekend's end, third baseman Matt Chapman could finally be back from the injured list. Chapman, who hasn't played since June 8, checked off another box in his return from right hand inflammation by taking batting practice at Chase Field prior to the Giants' series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks. As he walked off the field, Chapman told reporters that he plans to play a rehab game with Triple-A Sacramento on Friday as the Giants begin their three-game series against the Athletics at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento.

The San Francisco Giants are in a position where they should add ahead of the trade deadline. After hanging with the juggernaut Los Angeles Dodgers atop the NL West division for the majority of the first half of the year, the Giants now sit nine games back of first place entering play on Thursday. How aggressive the Giants are remains to be seen. Already without a strong farm system, they shipped out a strong package to acquire Rafael Devers in the shocking blockbuster that should transform their lineup at some point this season.

Matt Chapman looks sharp in BP as the San Francisco Giants third baseman nears return. A rehab start in Reno could lead to weekend activation.

As the San Francisco Giants try to weather a tough storm of late, they recently made some roster moves to help provide some infield depth. The Giants have been dealing with a number of injuries of late, especially to their infield. This has contributed to some of the struggles of late with San Francisco limping into July. Of the injuries, the most notable was to star third baseman Matt Chapman.

The San Francisco Giants have become one of MLB's more intriguing teams. The Giants already pulled off what will likely remain the most shocking trade of the season when they added Rafael Devers from the Boston Red Sox. If San Francisco is to be active at the deadline, what would a dream scenario haul look like?

There's four weeks until the MLB trade deadline, which always generates plenty of excitement. On June 15, the Red Sox agreed to ship Rafael Devers to the Giants for four players, including a pair of prospects, one of which was No. 4 San Francisco prospect and outfielder James Tibbs III. San Francisco needs a pitcher. Boston has one it might not want anymore in right-hander Walker Buehler.

There's still plenty of time for the San Francisco Giants to rejoin the National League playoff race as they enter play on July 3 half a game back from the final wild card slot. To do so, the Giants need to surmount the issue plaguing them through their entire 2025 MLB campaign: offensive firepower. Unfortunately, that impact has yet to translate through Devers' first 67 plate appearances with San Francisco.

Yesterday on the farm.

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson reacted to Zack Wheeler news.

Diamondbacks starter Brandon Pfaadt pitched well last time out. It was another decent outing as Pfaadt tries to put a miserable stretch behind him.

The Giants could use one more bat.

Athletics manager Mark Kotsay recently told reporters that the team's second baseman, Zack Gelof, could be making his long-awaited season debut this weekend against the San Francisco Giants. Late in camp he injured his hamate and needed surgery, and on the rehab assignment from that injury ended up with a stress reaction in his ribs that prolonged his time on the IL. Gelof has been on his current rehab assignment since June 17 down in Triple-A Las Vegas, as the club was giving him a full spring training's worth of at-bats to get him ready. After playing in Wednesday's game with Vegas, Gelof has racked up a total of 34 at-bats, going 9-for-34, good for a .265 batting average.

Former Red Sox pitcher has allowed just 13 hits in 25 appearances for NL Central-leading Chicago.
