San Francisco Giants News

Shaun Anderson is the first one of potentially several new top prospects to be added to the Giants organization, as the 2016 third-round pick is now San Francisco’s 17th best prospect among MLB.com’s top 30 for the team.

On Tuesday evening, the Giants traded away their starting third baseman in exchange for a pair of pitching prospects. When Giants’ manager Bruce Bochy was forced to pull Eduardo Nuenz from Tuesday’s game in the fifth inning, Bochy was left with one third baseman on his 25-man roster, Conor Gillaspie. Though Gillaspie played third base […]

Anderson is a 22-year-old former third-round pick out of the University of Florida, while Santos is just 17 and joined the Red Sox minor league system straight from the Dominican Republic. Considering that Nuñez is merely a rental for Boston with his contract up at the end of this year, it seems as though the Giants got a decent haul for the former All-Star.

Just one season removed from hitting 21 bombs in 132 games, Shaw is hitting .289 with an .847 OPS this season and nine of his 15 home runs have come since his promotion to the River Cats. Despite the hype about his power, Shaw doesn’t view himself as a classic slugger.

After the Giants dealt Eduardo Nunez to the Red Sox last night, a roster spot was opened on the big club. The team will reportedly call up 28-year-old outfielder Carlos Moncrief in the wake of Nunez’s departure.

​ When the weekend began for San Francisco, Giants’ manager Bruce Bochy had the same number of outfielders as he did third basemen on his 25-man roster.

Eduardo Nunez was a member of the San Francisco Giants for less than a calendar year. But based on the reactions of Nunez, his teammates and Giants’ manager Bruce Bochy to the news that the team’s starting third baseman was traded to the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday evening, the impact Nunez had was immense.

Eduardo Nunez made sure to acknowledge his excitement to head to his new team in Boston and compete for a World Series. But, he also made sure to mention his love for his Giants teammates and even shed a tear when shouting out the fans he’s come to love in such a short time.

With just over two months remaining until Eduardo Nunez hits free agency, the San Francisco Giants decided to trade their starting third baseman to the Boston Red Sox.

With San Francisco ahead 10-1 in the bottom of the fifth inning, and cruising to ace Madison Bumgarner’s first victory of the season, starting third baseman Eduardo Nunez was abruptly pulled from the contest.
