San Francisco Giants

But we always come back to the same spring training question when we’re down here.

Giants starting pitcher Jeff Samardzija led the majors in innings pitched last season (207.2), so it should come as no surprise that he’s not crazy about the trend when asked about it on Murph & Mac Wednesday. His reasoning, however, doesn’t have anything to do with how it affects starters, but rather the pressure it puts on bullpens over time.

Tim Lincecum is reportedly returning to Major League Baseball.

After Derek Holland struck out four batters in his Spring Training debut, Mike Krukow told Murph & Mac on Tuesday morning he believes the veteran left-handed could be well-suited for the bullpen.

After putting on his second pitching showcase earlier this month, it was reported that Tim Lincecum has received heavy interest from several major league teams, including the Los Angeles Dodgers.

In light of his past actions, Pablo Sandoval used his appearance on Murph & Mac Monday morning to apologize for the way he left the San Francisco Giants in 2014.

After working with the Giants’ young pitchers in Spring Training, Ryan Vogelsong praised their potential while appearing on Murph & Mac Monday morning.

This year’s list looks slightly different than the 2017 version, that featured Christian Arroyo and Bryan Reynolds. Arroyo was shipped off to Tampa Bay this offseason as part of the Evan Longoria trade, while Reynolds was traded to Pittsburg in the Andrew McCutchen deal.

After being taken to the hospital last Monday, the San Francisco Giants announced that Orlando Cepeda is on the mend.

On Saturday afternoon, Marty Lurie had a chance to get to know prospect reliever Tyler Cyr in his first Spring Training with the San Francisco Giants.
