Giants News

The San Francisco Giants' season continues to spiral, now sitting at 56-81 with the fourth-worst record in MLB, which has fans grumbling about the team's future under manager Tony Vitello. After a brutal 1-7 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks, the pressure is mounting as the Giants project a .409 winning percentage, their lowest since 2017. To make matters worse, left-hander Sam Hentges has been placed on the injured list with a forearm strain, adding to a lengthy injury list that’s hampering any chance of a late-season turnaround. On a brighter note, two Giants prospects made headlines in their organizational debuts, hinting at a potential silver lining in a dreary season, but for now, the somber reality of the Giants’ struggles weighs heavily as they contemplate the long-term implications of their recent Kalshi partnership.

Posey: Tony Vitello Will Return As Giants’ Manager In 2027
The Giants’ 56-81 record is the fourth-worst in baseball, and their .409 winning percentage projects as their lowest in a season since their .395 mark (64-98) in 2017.  It hasn’t at all been an ideal debut season for manger Tony Vitello, yet Giants president of baseball operations Buster Posey made it clear that he isn’t […]
