San Francisco Giants News

Man. Buster Posey said he wanted the Giants to be in the “memory-making business”, but did he know he’d be in the “Jock Blog-making business” as well? By my count, this will be my *fifth* consecutive Giants-themed JB, which has to be a record for one team since at least the days we used to […]

The 2025 Giants have the very unique ability to take hope and expectations, and harshly remind you of the club’s glaring flaws. Such was the case for the entirety of this homestand, and especially evident in a putrid three game home sweep at the hands of the lowly Miami Marlins. San Francisco took the disappointment […]

It feels like much longer than a week ago that the Giants shook the baseball world to its core by acquiring superstar infielder/DH Rafael Devers in a blockbuster deal with the Boston Red Sox. Since then, the Giants have gone a modest 3-3. But the results on the field have almost taken a back seat […]

Buster Posey has been on the job less than a year, but it’s clear he took this gig with a self-imposed mandate: Make memories at the yard.

Even those who waited to see it to believe it can sit back and soak it all in now. Rafael Devers is a San Francisco Giant. The Giants made the deal formally official on Tuesday afternoon at Oracle Park, introducing Devers at a very well attended press conference in a cushy club level setup before […]

It’s been over 24 hours since the Giants made an enormous splash by trading for Red Sox star infielder Rafael Devers. In doing so they transformed their underachieving lineup to complement what has been one of the league’s most elite pitching staffs.  Subsequently, it was a very busy Monday on The Sports Leader covering the […]

Posey and the Giants sent shockwaves through the MLB world on Sunday, acquiring superstar Red Sox infielder Rafael Devers in a blockbuster trade that […]

We’re on to Cincinnati.  Or, Dodger Stadium. You know what I mean. I’m not going to bludgeon the Giants for blowing a 7-2 lead Thursday afternoon and losing, in embarrassing fashion, to the lowly Rockies. (Fun fact: 15.3% of Colorado’s win total this year is against Buster Posey’s Giants. I digress.) The Gigantes are coming […]

Dominic Smith doesn’t yet know what it’s like to lose a game in orange and black. The newest Giant, along with speedy outfielder Daniel Johnson, is a perfect 6-0 in his first week with the team. It’s not binary cause and effect of course. Smith hasn’t been superhuman, but he’s provided stability at first base […]

When Buster Posey said “it’s time to go,” the Giants listened. It feels like longer than five days ago that the Giants’ legend and current President of Baseball Operations uttered the casual call to action. Since then, his team is undefeated, ripping off five straight wins to put a bow on a nice homestand that […]
