Cesar Perdomo Cesar Perdomo Sent down to minors
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 6:26 PM
The Giants optioned Perdomo to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Perdomo wasn't lined up to make another start this season after throwing 5.1 innings against the Twins on Wednesday, so the Giants will remove him from their active roster to make room for Camilo Doval, who was claimed off waivers Thursday. Perdomo will conclude 2026 with a 3.65 ERA and 1.38 WHIP through 24.2 innings in the majors and could have a chance to open the 2027 campaign in the Giants' rotation. |

Bo Davidson Bo Davidson In Friday's lineup
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 5:16 PM
Davidson (foot) will start in right field and bat fourth Friday against the Dodgers, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Davidson was pulled from Wednesday's game early after fouling a ball off his foot, but he appears to be feeling well enough to play after getting an extra day off Thursday. The 24-year-old outfielder has collected a base hit in each of his first three MLB games while adding two runs and a steal, but it may be harder for him to find success Friday against formidable lefty Tarik Skubal. |

Yunior Marte Yunior Marte Drawing another start
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 9:30 AM
Marte is slated to start Friday's game against the Dodgers in San Francisco.
Analysis: Marte will receive a second straight turn through the Giants rotation in what should be his final outing of the season. Through four appearances (two starts) since being called up from Triple-A Sacramento on Aug. 29, Marte has turned in a 4.66 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 11:9 K:BB across 19.1 innings. |

Blade Tidwell Blade Tidwell Moves to 60-day IL
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 2:10 PM
The Giants transferred Tidwell (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Thursday.
Analysis: Tidwell is likely to require Tommy John surgery after suffering a high-grade UCL sprain during his last outing Monday, so the Giants will stash him away on the 60-day IL for the rest of the season. His 40-man roster spot will go to Camilo Doval, who was claimed off waivers from Pittsburgh on Thursday. |

Camilo Doval Camilo Doval Returns to San Francisco
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 2:07 PM
The Giants claimed Doval off waivers from the Pirates on Thursday.
Analysis: After being designated for assignment by Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Doval will now return to the organization with which he spent his first four-plus seasons in the majors. The 29-year-old righty has turned in a 4.30 ERA and 1.52 WHIP across 58.2 innings with the Yankees and Pirates this season, so he's unlikely to return to his familiar role as the Giants' closer, but he could provide middle-relief help during the team's final four regular-season contests. Blade Tidwell (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day IL in a corresponding move. |

Cesar Perdomo Cesar Perdomo Solid in no-decision
Wed, Sep 23, 2026, 9:09 PM
Perdomo didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Twins, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out two.
Analysis: Perdomo was another solid appearance overall for Perdomo, who's held opponents to two runs or fewer in four of his five appearances this season. The 24-year-old southpaw made a decent case to open the 2027 campaign in San Francisco's rotation. Perdomo will likely finish the year with a 3.65 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 14:7 K:BB across 24.2 innings. |

Bo Davidson Bo Davidson Exits early Wednesday
Wed, Sep 23, 2026, 5:25 PM
Davidson was removed from Wednesday's game against the Twins with a foot injury, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Davidson remained in the game for a while after fouling a ball off his foot in the sixth inning, but he was eventually replaced in the outfield when the Giants' defense took the field in the ninth. X-rays on his foot came back negative shortly after the game, per Pavlovic, but Scott Bandura and Grant McCray could be candidates to start in right field if Davidson is unable to play in Friday's series opener against the Dodgers. |

Jonah Cox Jonah Cox Logs another stolen base Tuesday
Wed, Sep 23, 2026, 11:06 AM
Cox went 0-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Twins.
Analysis: Cox drew a walk in the first inning before recording his team-leading 15th stolen base of the season, and he also logged an RBI on a fielder's choice in the ninth. The 25-year-old has racked up seven stolen bases in September while batting .260 with 13 runs scored and seven RBI in 83 plate appearances. Overall, he's slashing .272/.317/.412 with 25 runs scored, 16 RBI and four long balls across 152 plate appearances this season. |

Braxton Roxby Braxton Roxby Returning to majors
Tue, Sep 22, 2026, 5:53 PM
The Giants recalled Roxby from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.
Analysis: Roxby appeared in four games in Triple-A after he was optioned back Sept. 7. He allowed one earned on a home run with seven strikeouts across 7.1 innings. The righty returns to the majors as a corresponding move to Blade Tidwell landing on the 15-day injured list due to a UCL sprain. |

Blade Tidwell Blade Tidwell Diagnosed with UCL sprain
Tue, Sep 22, 2026, 5:27 PM
The Giants placed Tidwell on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a high-grade UCL sprain, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Tidwell made an early exit from what will be his final start of 2026 on Monday after injuring his elbow. He is still in the process of exploring all of his options, but there is a chance the 25-year-old righty undergoes Tommy John surgery, which would almost certainly rule him out for the entire 2027 campaign as well. Braxton Roxby was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move. |

Landen Roupp Landen Roupp Resting rest of season
Tue, Sep 22, 2026, 5:20 PM
Roupp has been shut down for the rest of the 2026 season, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Roupp revealed that his season is done Tuesday, having blown by his previous career high in innings. His inning count in 2025 was 106.2 and he was able to up that to 155 in 2026. The right-hander is feeling fine, but he doesn't want to push it with the Giants' season about wrapped up. The 28-year-old's last appearance of the year was Sept. 14 against the Cardinals, when he took the loss after giving up two runs across 4.1 innings. |

Bo Davidson Bo Davidson Logs first big-league hit
Tue, Sep 22, 2026, 11:36 AM
Davidson went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over the Twins.
Analysis: Davidson made his big-league debut Monday after being called up from Triple-A Sacramento. The 24-year-old outfielder lined a single to right field in the first inning and stole second base before coming around to score. With the Giants plagued by injuries and eliminated from playoff contention, Davidson could see regular reps down the stretch. |

Christian Koss Christian Koss Doubles in victory
Tue, Sep 22, 2026, 11:35 AM
Koss went 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over the Twins.
Analysis: Koss lined a double to left field in the second inning before coming around to score. The 28-year-old had gone hitless in the Giants' previous three games, though he's been productive in September, batting .297 on the month with 15 runs scored, eight RBI, three home runs and three stolen bases in 69 plate appearances. Overall, he's slashing .230/.273/.326 with 27 runs scored, 12 RBI, five stolen bases and four long balls across 203 plate appearances this season. |

Blade Tidwell Blade Tidwell Departs with injury
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 10:01 PM
Tidwell left Monday's start against the Twins with an apparent arm injury, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. He allowed one run on three hits while striking out four over 3.1 innings prior to exiting.
Analysis: Tidwell missed badly on his final pitch of the game in the top half of the fourth inning, prompting concern from the San Francisco dugout. He walked off the field with the team trainer after a brief evaluation. Tristan Beck was called upon in relief following Tidwell's departure. |

Willy Adames Willy Adames Ramping up baseball activities
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 6:31 PM
Adames (elbow) intends to take batting practice and participate in fielding work Monday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: The Giants have been eliminated from postseason contention, but it doesn't appear as though Adames, who was placed on the 10-day injured list Aug. 24 due to a left elbow sprain, has been shut down for the season just yet. Following Monday's matchup, San Francisco will have five games remaining, so it's possible the star shortstop will return before the end of the campaign in an effort to end the year on a high note. However, it's not clear if the club would be willing to activate Adames with nothing left to play for. |

Philip Abner Philip Abner DFA'd by Giants
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 6:18 PM
Abner was designated for assignment by San Francisco on Monday.
Analysis: Abner will lose his place on the 40-man roster to clear a spot for Bo Davidson, who is on track to make his major-league debut Monday night. Abner posted a 7.11 ERA and 1.68 WHIP with 10 strikeouts across 19.0 innings during stops with Arizona and San Francisco in the big leagues this year. |

Ready for big-league debut
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 6:16 PM
The Giants selected Davidson's contract from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Davidson will man right field and bat third in Monday's series opener. He was impressive at Triple-A before earning his promotion to the major leagues, hitting .309 with 10 home runs, 41 RBI, six stolen bases and 36 runs in 52 games. |

Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 6:11 PM
Eldridge was placed on the 7-day concussion injured list Monday, retroactive to Friday.

Jung Hoo Lee Jung Hoo Lee Sent to injured list
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 6:06 PM
Lee was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday due to a groin contusion, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: This move will effectively end Lee's 2026 campaign. He'll finish the year slashing .276/.320/.404 with 10 home runs, 57 RBI, 12 stolen bases and 65 runs over 143 games. |

Marcelo Mayer Marcelo Mayer Coming off IL on Monday
Mon, Sep 21, 2026, 5:50 PM
The Giants activated Mayer (forearm/foot) from the 10-day injured list Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Mayer has not played in the majors since late June, when he suffered a left forearm stress reaction while still in the Red Sox organization. He was also forced to slow his rehab due to a bone bruise in his right foot, but the infielder seems to have put both injuries in the rear-view mirror and will make his Giants debut at designated hitter Monday. Mayer has slashed .223/.278/.346 in 114 contests thus far at the big-league level. |
