Twins righty Ryan sharp after illness, leads Minnesota to 2-1 win over Giants
Twins starter Joe Ryan overcame an illness earlier in the week to put together a strong outing and Trevor Larnach delivered a big two-run homer as Minnesota held on for a 2-1 win Saturday night over the San Francisco Giants. Ryan (3-2) was scratched from his start Thursday against Baltimore due to illness, which he said was at its most intense on Monday. Ryan’s only blunder in six innings was a solo homer by Heliot Ramos, who had three of the Giants' four hits.
Giants Experiment Moving Relief Pitcher to Rotation Has Been Complete Failure
The San Francisco Giants are about to enter the meat of the regular season where it truly feels like things could go either way after what was a hot start. Pitching was always a concern entering the season for the Giants, and while some guys have stepped up to elevate the rotation as a whole, there's one name there who has not held up his end of the bargain. San Francisco handed Jordan Hicks a lucrative contract prior to the 2024 season with the intention of turning the career reliever into a starting pitcher. It was an out of the box idea, but Hicks would hardly have been the first to make the transition successfully had things worked out.

SF Giants stifled by Paddack's bid at perfect game

Insider Says Giants Fans Should Credit Farhan Zaidi Not Buster Posey for 2025 Success
Entering play on Friday, the San Francisco Giants have a 24-14 record. Quietly, there was some internal confidence inside the Giants organization that the disappointing result that happened last year would not occur in this one. Farhan Zaidi was replaced by franchise legend Buster Posey as the president of baseball operations, bringing this organization back to a more baseball-centric approach instead of using numbers to justify decisions.
