The San Francisco Giants' rotation took another hit when right-hander Landen Roupp landed on the 15-day injured list with elbow inflammation. The move announced Friday is retroactive to Wednesday for Roupp, whose MRI exam showed no structural issues, according to The Athletic. The Giants are down to three regular starters with All-Stars Logan Webb and Robbie Ray and future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander. "In flux," manager Bob Melvin said of his rotation.

Notes from week 17

The New York Mets beat the San Francisco Giants 8-1 on Friday night at Oracle Park, moving to 60-44 in the process. Clay Holmes earned the win on the mound, working five innings and surrendering just one run on six hits. He walked one and struck out two. He's now 9-5 with a 3.40 ERA. Offensively, the Mets were led by Francisco Lindor, who went 3-for-5 with a home run, an RBI and three runs scored. The home run was his 20th of the season and also tied him with Alex Rodriguez in some prestigious baseball history.

The San Francisco Giants took a moment during their home game on Friday against the New York Mets to honor a former team owner. Bill Neukom, who served as the San Francisco Giants' managing general partner for nearly four years, died last week. The man who coined the phrase, “The Giants' Way” as the franchise won the 2010 World Series, was honored by the team before the game as they had a moment of silence at Oracle Park before the first pitch.

David Peterson will get an opportunity to personally thank Robbie Ray for his All-Star invitation when they go head-to-head on the mound as the New York Mets and host San Francisco Giants continue their three-game series on Saturday evening. Francisco Lindor hit his 20th home run of the season, and the first four batters in the Mets' order combined for seven hits, six RBIs and four runs, lifting New York to a trip-opening 8-1 romp over the Giants on Friday night. Peterson (6-4, 2.90 ERA) appeared destined to watch last week's All-Star Game on television before the Giants elected to start Ray on the Sunday before the showcase, disqualifying him from pitching in Atlanta.

For baseball fans across the country, outfielder Ichiro Suzuki’s induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame this weekend is the capstone to a storied career of broken records.

The list, put together by Dave Tobener, is not only best players in franchise history, either.
