Talking about the San Francisco Giants prospects and farm system! Check out video and writing content here: https://linktr.ee/sfgiantfutures
Baseball America's Top 10 for the #SFGiants is out, and while there's a lot of non-surprises, I definitely did not expect #5.
Josuar Gonzalez 📈

The Giants SS is an easy plus defender, plus runner and has an elite sense of the strike zone.

And here is the official word: No protections from the #SFGiants.
The Giants didn't shield any eligible players from the Rule 5 draft by adding them to the 40-man prior to the reserve list deadline. The Giants are at 40 but had several DFA candidates. The bigger issue: former 1st rounders like Will Bednar, Reggie Crawford and Hunter Bishop haven't panned out.

Reportedly, the #SFGiants have their pitching coach, Justin Meccage. Meccage was most recently the Brewers Triple-A pitching coach, and formerly was the Pirates Assistant Pitching Coach and later Bullpen Coach, and he earned high praise from then-Pirates manager Shelton.

San Francisco has finally filled a huge hole next to new manager Tony Vitello.

It's 13 minutes past the MLB deadline to add players to the 40-man roster ahead of the Rule 5 Draft. So far, the #SFGiants have not announced any roster moves, although some teams are still making announcements.

I was hoping that Black might slide through waivers, but no such luck.

Martin is a 12th round pick from 2023, has some velocity upside and a slurvy breaking pitch, and a couple of decent Single-A seasons, though he's struggling with control in the AFL right now.
The Giants traded Mason Black (recently DFA’d) to Kansas City for RHP Logan Martin, a starter who finished last season in High-A.

Parks Harber is unsurprisingly on the Fall Stars roster for the AFL's version of an All-Star Game.

Slightly surprisingly, he's the only #SFGiants representative. I thought Ryan Murphy or Spencer Miles had a chance to get on the list as well.

Here’s the #SFGiants spring training schedule. Home games every Sunday, except one to visit the Cubs at Sloan Park. Also, check out that March 3rd…

Parks Harber is impressing in the AFL 👀

This past week, he hit four doubles and finished fourth in the league with 12 total bases 💪

Parks Harber will be one of the participants in AFL HR Derby this Saturday at Sloan Park. Quite a Fall Parks has had!

RIP to Uni-Watch.

This column, and later site, really helped engage my interest and knowledge in uniforms, their styles and details. This is a huge archive that will soon be lost for all us fans.

Thank you Paul Lukas and Phil Hecken for all of it!

So it is Tony Vitello for the #SFGiants manager job. There were a lot of interesting guys in this search...but I think Vitello is the most exciting. I'm eager to see what he can do, and honestly, I'm excited to see what he does for developing the team's younger players.

Tonight’s Arizona Fall League game in Scottsdale was interrupted by an alarm requiring an evacuation of the stadium. No clear reason, and press and fans are being allowed to mill around outside.

@peterhartlaub.bsky.social Hey Peter, I just saw this story that you were a part of on the SF Chronicle front page and I hope you can answer a burning question for me: Who is Berry Street (near Oracle Park) named after?

A few years ago, while he was on the team, I was saying that Stephen Vogt was a future manager. Obviously, I’ve got no regrets on that prediction now. But that is exactly the kind of manager the Giants need with this team. I don’t know who that is though.
September 29, 2025 at 5:19 PM
Boy, Wily Adames sure didn’t waste time putting one of the Bonds’ curses to bed. First pitch! For the first time since Barry, a #SFGiants player has hit 30 home runs (as a Giant).
September 28, 2025 at 7:14 PM
This is quite interesting, and a very big honor for Trevor Cohen, who slashed .327/.438/.402 across 28 games, though with just three doubles, one triple, and one home run in 107 at-bats. He had 20 walks to 15 strikeouts, and eight steals in ten attempts.

The new ABS system will introduce a new skill needed for players, particularly catchers: Effective appeals.

With "two" challenges (realistically, two failed challenges), the need to be accurate is important. On the defense, the catcher is best suited to handle appeals.

The #SFGiants got a B+ from BA for the season, thanks to several breakouts, and the only thing keeping them from an A were some injuries and a lack of successful promotions. Still, overall a positive season!

This is HUUUUUUGE news!

Arizona Fall League rosters have been announced!

The #SFGiants are sending pitchers Ricardo Estrada, Spencer Miles, Ryan Murphy, Jose Perez and Juan Sanchez;

And infielders Maui Ahuna, Parks Harber and Walker Martin.

Some surprises on the pitching side, less so on the hitters.

After tonight’s games, it is possible (even if unlikely) for the #SFGiants to get a playoff spot without help from any other team.
