As I write this, it’s been 24 hours since Matt Duffy and all that he represents — homegrown talent, Willie Mac Award qualities, an everyman’s appeal that reaffirms America’s greatness — was traded to Tampa Bay. That means the mourning period for Duffy — for his vacuum cleaner glove at third, for the memory of […]

Duane Kuiper joined Murph & Mac on KNBR Tuesday to examine the Giants’ deadline day trades. He talked about how hard it is to lose a guy like Matt Duffy, but says adding Matt Moore is worth the steep price.

SANTA CLARA — What’s the hardest thing for an NFL head coach to do? Get grown men to drop their current football belief system and buy into every little detail you preach. As the 49ers strapped on the pads for Day 3 of training camp, more key players on the roster are publicly embracing Chip Kelly’s often-criticized […]

Evans promised his commitment to Duffy three days ago when the Giants acquired Eduardo Nunez, privately telling Duffy he was still the club’s […]

The Giants followed up their trade deadline deal for reliever Will Smith with another major move to bolster their starting rotation, acquiring Tampa Bay Rays lefty Matt Moore for a three-player package headlined by Matt Duffy. #SFGiants acquire LHP Matt Moore in exchange for IF Matt Duffy and minor league IF Lucius Fox and RHP […]

With less than two hours until the trade deadline, the Giants acquired left-hander Will Smith to deepen their bullpen. The Giants sent catcher Andrew Susac and top pitching prospect Phil Bickford to the Brewers in return. Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports first reported the trade, and Alex Pavlovic of CSN Bay Area first reported the […]

Mike Krukow joined Murph & Mac on KNBR Monday to talk recap the Giants’ weekend series with the Nationals. He also discussed how Bruce Bochy used his bullpen to help get the Giants back into the win column.
