Which Player Has Been Giants' Early MVP to This Point in Season?

Keider Montero pitched five scoreless innings and Riley Greene drove in two runs to help the Detroit Tigers beat the San Francisco Giants 3-1 on Monday.

Mariners' Robbie Ray trade to Giants isn't aging well
The Seattle Mariners sure could use Robbie Ray right now. Their starting rotation is battling injuries, and their former southpaw is now off with the San Francisco Giants having a monster season. Making matters worse is that the key return for Ray in the January 2024 trade was Mitch Haniger. The Mariners released Haniger before this season, and he's still a free agent. How good has Ray been? He's 7-0 with a 2.56 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 69 strikeouts in 63.1 innings pitched. The big lefty is having an All-Star season.

San Francisco's Lee Jung-hoo extends hitting streak to 7 games in loss to Detroit Tigers
San Francisco Giants outfielder Lee Jung-hoo went 2-for-4 in a road game against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park in Detroit, Michigan, on Monday, extending his hitting streak to seven games with his second multi-hit performance in three days. Lee started as the No. 3 hitter and center fielder and rose his season batting average from .281 to .285. Lee's hitting streak began on April 19 and has now reached seven consecutive games, demonstrating his consistent batting performance.
Giants Have Perfect Blend of Youth and Experience in Starting Rotation
One of the reasons why the San Francisco Giants have experienced so much success during the 2025 MLB regular season has been the performance of their pitching staff. The Giants currently have a team ERA of 3.25, which is fourth-best in baseball. One of the players who is performing up to expectations is veteran left-handed pitcher Robbie Ray. Acquired from the Seattle Mariners ahead of the 2024 campaign, his first season with the Giants was not up to par as he worked his way back from Tommy John surgery.
Giants bats silent again, SF falls to Detroit 3-1
DETROIT (AP) — Keider Montero pitched five scoreless innings and Riley Greene drove in two runs to help the Detroit Tigers beat the San Francisco Giants 3-1 on Monday. Montero (2-1) entered the game with a 5.28 ERA in six games, but held the Giants to one hit and two walks while striking out three. Five relievers finished, with Will Vest pitching the ninth for his sixth save. Hayden Birdsong (2-1) took the loss, giving up three runs on five hits and two walks in 4 1/3 innings. The Tigers took a 1-0 lead in the fourth on Dillon Dingler's RBI single, and they added two runs in the fifth. With one out, Detroit loaded the bases on a single and two walks before Greene looped a two-run single into
San Francisco Giants Prospect With 20/20 Potential Garnering Attention With Play
When the San Francisco Giants hired Buster Posey to take over as their president of baseball operations, he knew that he had his work cut out for him. The team has been painfully mediocre since he announced his retirement following the 2021 campaign, the last time the Giants also qualified for the postseason. There were clear needs on the Major League roster. Another issue Posey has seemingly erased early in his tenure was landing big names in free agency.

SF Giants Willy Adames kills rallies in 3-1 series-opening loss in Detroit
Giants manager Bob Melvin insists Willy Adames' clutch hitting “is going to come.” It repeatedly did not come in Monday's 3-1, series-opening loss at Detroit, and Adames' offensive woes are blindingly reflective of the Giants' anemic output over the past nine games. The Giants (31-23) managed just five hits and none went for extra bases against the American League Central-leading Tigers (35-20). Adames went 0-for-4 for a second straight afternoon, and that is not what the Giants banked on when signing him to a seven-year, $182 million deal.
Nationals Notebook: Everybody's talking about the new kids in town
The Washington Nationals have one of the youngest rosters in baseball. Prime prospect Robert Hassell III made his major league debut two months after putting the team on notice as a spring training sensation (Hassell posted a team-high 17 hits while batting .370 over 21 exhibitions) and went 2-5 with two runs scored. Jarlin Susana, when do we see your arm (don't hold your breath as he's still at AA Harrisburg)? Hassell was joined by Daylen Lile later in the week as the 2021 second-round pick reached the show as well.
