At approximately 5:18 p.m. PST, Joey Lucchesi emerged from the visiting bullpen doors at Dodger Stadium and jogged out to the mound for his season debut. When the funky-throwing lefty delivered his first pitch of the night, the Giants had yet to announce that Lucchesi was officially on the roster. It was not until 5:45 p.m. PST that San Francisco officially announced Lucchesi had been selected from Triple-A Sacramento — after Lucchesi's outing had ended.

The Red Sox make a shocking trade of Rafael Devers to the Giants, the Dodgers announced Shohei's return to the mound & nine series sweeps happen over the weekend. Join us for a jam-packed Baseball Bar-B-Cast.

The Los Angeles Dodgers haven’t missed a beat since winning the World Series in 2024, and now they’re set to get another major boost ahead of Monday’s matchup against NL West rival, the San Diego Padres. Following their 5-4 win over the San Francisco Giants on Sunday Night Baseball, the Dodgers made a significant announcement regarding superstar Shohei Ohtani, revealing that he’s set to return to the mound on Monday night against the Padres. This will mark not only his first pitching appearance in a Dodgers uniform since signing with the team, but also his first start overall since Aug 23, 2023.

What makes the 2025 Giants Buster Posey's team? Posey's bold, brash, and perhaps even reckless trade for three-time All-Star slugger Rafael Devers on Sunday is a big black-and-orange stamp from the new director of baseball operations on the Giants organization. The trade also made a statement to the fanbase and the rest of baseball: The Giants are done acting like anything less than the single big-league team in the richest metro area in America. After years of pushing fiscal prudence and not earnestly trying to keep up with the Joneses, Posey is done pretending anything else but the team in blue matters.

Major league scouts offer their detailed reports on the four players the Red Sox obtained for Rafael Devers.

“Blockbuster mid-June trade” is almost an oxymoron in Major League Baseball. The Giants have been rebuffed in both trade and free agent negotiations over the past decade by (deep breath) Jon Lester, Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani, Carlos Correa's right fibula and who knows how many more we may not know about.

The former Boston Red Sox star instantly upgrades the Giants' offense, but where will he play on defense?

LOS ANGELES -- - Andy Pages hit a game-turning three-run home run in the fifth inning, Shohei Ohtani had three hits and scored two runs, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 5-4 on Sunday night. The Dodgers trailed 3-2 when Ohtani and Mookie Betts singled to open the fifth. Freddie Freeman grounded out and Teoscar Hernández struck out, before Pages drove a slider from Giants reliever Ryan Walker into the left-center field pavilion for his 13th homer and a 5-3 lead. Pages also had a sacrifice fly in the first, and Tommy Edman hit a solo homer in the second to help the Dodgers push their National League West lead to two games over San Francisco.

The San Francisco Giants will likely be buyers ahead of the trade deadline. How aggressive they are going to be isn't yet determined with new president of baseball operations Buster Posey hinting he might be a bit reserved. Jim Bowden of The Athletic (subscription required) put together a list of targets he believes the Giants should go after before July 31, and I have taken a look at that list and ranked them in order of who I believe are the most realistic targets. San Francisco went down the Soler route in 2024 and got off that train a half-year into his tenure.

While Yankees-Red Sox is the biggest rivalry on the east coast, Giants-Dodgers is the biggest rivalry on the west coast. In fact, the two teams have been rivals since they were both back in New York when they were the New York Gothams and Brooklyn Dodgers, respectively. And now, on Sunday, June 15, San Francisco …

While the San Francisco Giants progress toward the MLB trade deadline, one of their needs is definitely not starting rotation help. The Giants have been propelled by All-Star caliber Logan Webb and Robbie Ray and solid production from Landen Roupp and Hayden Birdsong. Entering play on June 15, San Francisco's rotation carries a 3.68 ERA with the No. 6 strikeout-to-walk rate (15.5) in baseball.

The Colorado Rockies have placed left-handed pitcher Kyle Freeland on the 15-day injured list with low back stiffness, retroactive to June 12, the club announced Sunday. Freeland last took the mound Wednesday against the San Francisco Giants, allowing six hits, two walks and three earned runs across 6.0 innings of work. He cleared 90 pitches for the third consecutive outing, all while notching his third straight quality start. The 32-year-old southpaw is 1-8 with a 5.13 ERA, 1.520 WHIP and -0.1 WAR on the whole this season. Over his last six starts, though, Freeland owns a 3.67 ERA. In a slew of other roster moves, Colorado also reinstated left-handed pitcher Austin Gomber from the 60-day injured
