MLB Injury Guide - Week of July 19th

Closers and Saves Report: Summer Camp Edition 2 - Handcuffs
It's a whole new ball game. Literally. Baseball is going to be weird this season, folks. Only 60 games. (Almost?) all in the same time zone. Tons of games against the same teams. The DH everywhere. Empty stadiums. Cardboard cutouts. Artificial crowd noise. 30-man rosters for a while. Then 28-man rosters for another while. It's […]

As if preseason rankings and projections weren't fickle enough already...

Tony Watson Faces Hitters Friday
San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Tony Watson (shoulder) faced hitters in game conditions on Friday for the first time this year and topped out at 88 mph. Watson's command was a little erratic, but it's understandable given his long layoff. It's not exactly a vote of confident, though, with Opening Day less than a week […]
Brandon Belt, Evan Longoria Could Be Ready For Opener
San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler said that first baseman Brandon Belt (heel) and third baseman Evan Longoria (oblique) both have a shot to be ready by Opening Day on Thursday, July 23, against the Dodgers. Belt is slated to serve as the designated hitter in Saturday night's simulated game. Fantasy owners shouldn't get their […]
Closers and Saves Report: Summer Camp Edition
In a normal year, we'd be talking about the upcoming trade deadline and how this team needs that player but that team needs this player but then that guy got hurt. During a normal baseball season, we'd be discussing the All-Star Game and how this player definitely didn't deserve a spot and that player was certainly robbed of his […]
Evan Longoria Has "Moderate" Oblique Strain
San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler said that third baseman Evan Longoria (oblique) is dealing with a "moderate" oblique strain. The ailment has kept Longoria out of the team's last two intrasquad games and it could keep the veteran third baseman out of the lineup for the start of the regular season. The 34-year-old can […]
Billy Hamilton Back In Giants Camp
San Francisco Giants outfielder Billy Hamilton passed his physical and is back in the team's summer camp on Friday. Pitcher Luis Madero, who was confirmed to test positive for COVID-19, has also been cleared to take part in workouts. The Giants will not rush Hamilton back just for Opening Day next Friday, so we could […]
Hunter Pence Not Playing The Field Yet
San Francisco Giants outfielder Hunter Pence (foot) did some running on Wednesday but still isn't playing the field and served as the designated hitter in an intrasquad game on Thursday. The veteran outfielder is dealing with some inflammation in his foot and might not be ready to play the field by Opening Day, but the […]
Tyler Rogers (RP, SF) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper
BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~ 310 CURRENT ADP: ~368 overall ANALYSIS: Rogers, the brother of Twins closer Taylor Rogers, will get his time in 2020 to save games for the Giants. Rogers has shown the ability to close out games throughout the Giants' farm system, so the ability to finish games has already been established. He […]
Giants Sign Kyle Harrison
The San Francisco Giants signed left-handed pitcher Kyle Harrison, their third-round pick in June, for $2.5 million on Thursday. The Giants have now signed their entire 2020 draft class after inking the highly ranked high school pitcher from De La Salle. The $2.5 million Harrison received was well over the slot value for the No. […]
Brandon Belt Hitting And Taking Grounders
San Francisco Giants first baseman Brandon Belt (foot) has resumed hitting and taking ground balls, but he won't run the bases for at least a couple of days. With Opening Day just around the corner next Friday, July 24, Belt may not have enough time to be ready for the start of the regular season. […]
Trevor Cahill Unlikely To Be Ready
It's looking like San Francisco Giants pitcher Trevor Cahill (finger) won't have enough time to ramp up to be ready for the Opening Day roster because of a fingernail issue. Cahill was hoping to win a rotation spot heading into the regular season, but that probably won't be the case for the 32-year-old because of […]
