After hitting a league-worst 128 home runs last season, the San Francisco Giants finally have a middle of the order centerpiece to build their lineup around.

If the Giants don’t add a center fielder via free agency, the front office can still broker a trade. Miami Marlins’ center fielder Christian Yelich is reportedly interested in finding a new landing spot, and his team-friendly contract runs through 2022.

In light of the heightened tension between the officials and players in the NBA, Steve Kerr shared with Fitz & Brooks on Tuesday afternoon what he’d do to restore a healthy working relationship between both sides.

Less than a month after the excitement of his acquisition from the Tampa Bay Rays, Evan Longoria told Murph & Mac on Wednesday morning how thrilled he is with the Giants’ recent trade for Andrew McCutchen.

With Andre Iguodala and Draymond Green unavailable Wednesday night, Jordan Bell will start his second game against the Chicago Bulls.

Contreras has a long way to go to match the most accomplished catcher in the game and the best defensive catcher of his generation, but the Cubs’ starter doesn’t appear worried about living up to his own set of expectations.

If you’re still going to be mad about the Giants plans for 2018, you may be falling into the trap of the old saying about the cynic: He knows the price of everything, and the value of nothing.

The Warriors easily dispatched of the new look Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night, beating them 118-108 for the first time with Isaiah Thomas in their lineup. For three seasons, the Warriors-Cavs rivalry has been the best in the NBA, and after meeting three consecutive times in the NBA Finals, will undoubtably go down as one of the best of all time. Even if they meet for a fourth time this June, however, Marcus Thompson of The Athletic believes that Monday’s easy victory for Golden State is a signal that this rivalry has run its course.

This is a Giants team loaded down by players who have been around the block. Now, those 30-something-year-olds are making compromises so they can take another trip.

Without knowing where Andrew McCutchen will bat in the lineup next season, Ryan Vogelsong argued on Murph & Mac Tuesday morning that he could leadoff, likening him to Rickey Henderson.
