The San Francisco Giants re-signed Ryan Vogelsong to a one-year, $5 million deal--Vogelsong can add another $1.5 million to that if he hits jackpot on some incentives.
MORE JAKE DAL PORTO
That leaves one spot, and one interesting scenario conjured up by yours truly: If the Giants had to choose between Bronson Arroyo and Phil Hughes, who would they pick?
The hot stove is starting to heat up, and the latest the rumor mill has churned out is the San Francisco Giants’ interest in Bronson Arroyo, Dan Haren, Tim Hudson and, well, about nine others, give or take a couple. That news comes via Henry Schulman of t
We’re missing someone here: Javier Lopez Let’s see, all Lopez did was muster a career-best 1.83 ERA in 39.1 innings. Since Lopez is one of those lefty specialties, he doesn’t qualify in the ERA department, for relievers. So I dialed the minimum innings pi
Call it official. Tim Lincecum will remain in San Francisco for at least two more years, as his two-year, $35 million contract was finalized Friday afternoon.
You know the narrative by now: Justin Verlander flat-out carved up the Oakland Athletics in this year’s American League Division Series.
Throw all the "inexperienced" nonsense out the window, because Sonny Gray will take the ball for the Oakland A’s on Thursday night. Yes, it’s one of those Game 5s. It is in fact against the mighty Justin Verlander. And yes, Gray is what we call a “rookie.
Sonny Gray matched Justin Verlander pitch-for-pitch (plus a bit more) on Saturday night: a rookie versus an MVP and Cy Young winner. The perfect setup.
Max Scherzer was, well, the 2013 version of Max Scherzer on Friday night against the Oakland A’s. That Max Scherzer is quite good. Cy Young-good, in fact. Putting aside the whole 21-3 win-loss record and all the chaos it’s caused between old-school statis
In case you need a bit of a refresher on the situation, well, here we go: Game 5 of the American League Division Series. It’s all even at 2-2 after the A’s.
The phrase "you can't write this stuff up" is tossed around a lot. But on Sunday afternoon, it became worthy of some more tossing around. Hu...
Lost in the Hunter Pence (impending free agent) and Tim Lincecum (also an impending free agent) hoopla is Ryan Vogelsong. More specifically, his $6.5 million team option for 2014. It was once a lock that the Giants would surely pick that reasonable option
Here’s the twist, though: Oakland A’s third baseman Josh Donaldson (7.9 WAR)--gasp--owns a better WAR than Miguel Cabrera (7.5). Yes, that Miguel Cabrera.
The final chapter to Tim Lincecum’s career as a San Francisco Giant could be coming to a close. I warn you to put plenty of emphasis on the “could.” No one truly knows where Lincecum wants to land. He told Andrew Baggarly of CSN Bay Area in February that
Hunter Pence continued his chase to the 100 RBI plateau with a big night, and the San Francisco Giants prevailed, blowing out the Los Angeles Dodgers 19-3.
The Dodgers took Game 1 from the Giants by a final tally of 3-2 in 10 innings. But perhaps the more intriguing headline: Brian Wilson, a former Giant, got a bit of revenge. The former All-Star closer picked up the win against his former club. It isn’t muc
AT&T Park had a Coors Field-esque feeling on Tuesday night. The Giants and Rockies combined for three home runs, but more Coors Field-like, the Rockies came roaring back from a 6-0 deficit in the fourth inning, coughed up the lead in the eighth, but took
Jon Lester’s brilliance and a three-run second inning against Tim Lincecum propelled the Boston Red Sox to a 7-0 series-opening win on Monday night. “S...
The Giants’ offense bursted out on Friday night against Marlins starter Nathan Eovaldi in a big way, posting season-highs in both runs and hits. With a couple glimpses of collapse, San Francisco held on to win 14-10.
Victories, let alone comeback victories, have been rare for the San Francisco Giants since they started their plummet to the NL West's cellar in late ...
