Nico Mazza RHP- 7 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 6 K's, 10/4 GO/AO.  ERA= 2.50.

Dakota Jordan is on a sustained tear.  After a quiet May, he hit 6 HR with a .542 SLG% in June.  So far in July his batting .432/.475/1.027 with 6 HR.  Nico Mazza is quietly having a good season but 41 BB in 72 IP is not optimal.

Game Wrap 7/10/2026: Rockies 4 Giants 3

 It looked like Robby Ray and Rafael Devers put the team on their backs and carried them to a win, but another bullpen failure, this time by Caleb Kilian, made it all for naught.  Key Lines:

Luis Arraez 2B- 3 for 4, BB, SB(8), R.  BA= .331.  Arraez gets his average back above .330 but still trails Otto Lopez by .010 in the NL and MLB batting races.

Rafael Devers DH- 3 for 3, HR(19), BB, SF, 2 R, 3 RBI.  BA= .253.  Devers drove in all 3 runs with a solo HR, RBI single and Sac Fly.  The Sac Fly was too little too late after Kilian's meldown in the top of the 9'th inning.

Robbie Ray LHP- 5 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 6 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 3.38.  Ray threw 100 pitches in 5 innings but left the game with the score tied at 1.  

Caleb Kilian RHP- 0.0 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 1 BB, 0 K, BS(3).  ERA= 4.74.  Alex Pavlovic pointed out that this was the 4'th time in 6 games Kilian has given up runs.  It was also the 6'th time this year the Giants lost when they had the lead after 8 innings.  The 3 hits he gave up were all soft but that's what happens if you are a Closer and pitch to contact.  

Tyler Mahle RHP tries to get the Giants back on the winning side of the ledger in an afternoon game facing old nemesis Kyle Freeland LHP who comes in with a ERA of 7.46.

Down on the Farm: 7/9/2026

 AAA:  Sacramento River Cats defeated the Salt Lake City Bees 5-3.

Turner Hill CF- 3 for 4, 3B, HR(6), SB(16).  BA= .315.

Thomas Gavello 3B- 1 for 2, BB, Sac, 2 SB(6).  BA= .195.

Blade Tidwell RHP- 6 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 1 BB, 6 K's, 6/3 GO/AO.  ERA= 4.40.

Jason Foley RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 7.41.  

Eric Cerantola RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 0.00.

Carson Seymour RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K, Save(1).  ERA= 3.74.

Is Blade Tidwell next up for the Giants rotation after the trade deadline?  Lack of strikeouts have been an issue for Jason Foley.  He struck out the side in this game.  Eric Cerantola makes his Giants organizational debut since being claimed off waivers from the Royals.

AA:  Richmond Flying Squirrels beat the Altoona Curve 5-3.

Bo Davidson CF- 2 for 5, SB(14).  BA= .270.

Sabin Ceballos DH- 2 for 4, 2 HR(13).  BA= .234.

Jean Carlos Sio RF- 1 for 3, HR(7), BB.  BA= .230.

A+:  Spokane Indians beat the Eugene Emeralds 4-1.

Jacob Bresnahan LHP- 6 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 3 BB, 11 K's.  ERA= 3.02.

Gerelmi Maldonado RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 3.92.

A light switch seemed to go on for Bresnahan after a disaster start on 6/3.  This was his 4'th Quality Start in a row. In that span he allowed just 2 R in 24.1 IP.

A:  San Jose Giants whipped the Visalia Rawhide 11-3.

Isaiah Barkett 2B- 2 for 5, HR(5).  BA= .329.

Lorenzo Meola SS- 1 for 3, 2B, 2 BB, SB(9).  BA= .251.

DSL:  Giants Black vs Angels Suspended in the top of the 2'nd inning with Giants Black leading 2-0.  Giants Orange was idle.

Game Wrap 7/9/2026: Giants 8 Rockies 2

Carson Whisenhunt was one out short of a Quality Start and the lineup brought their hitting shoes.  Key Lines:

Luis Arraez 2B- 2 for 4, 2B, BB, R, RBI.  BA= .326.  Arraez has 3 hitless games in July which drags his average on the month down to .273.  He's partly made up for that with 3 multi-hit games.

Casey Schmitt 3B- 2 for 4, 2B, HR(18), BB, 2 R, 2 RBI.  BA- .278.  Casey opened the scoring with a homer over the apex of L-CF.  Thanks to MCC for pointing out that the walk was his first since May 24.  

Rafael Devers DH- 2 for 4, 2B, BB, R, 2 RBI.  BA= .247.  Devers bat is getting better as the season progresses:  .308/.419/.692 over his last 7 games although is OPS on the season is still under .800.

Willy Adames SS- 1 for 5, HR(15), R, 2 RBI.  BA= .229.  Adames has fallen behind the pace for 30 HR's but he's usually better in the second half.  Between being last in fielding metrics among qualified shortstops and a .280 OBP he's produced a paltry 0.2 fWAR so far this season.

Bryce Eldridge 1B- 2 for 3, HR(8), 2 BB, R, RBI.  BA= .275.  Eldridge won praise from Kruk and Kuip for his pitch selection and for adjusting to inside fastballs by pulling his arms in and rotating on the ball.  He sent on such pitch into McCovey Cove.  

Drew Cavanaugh C- 2 for 3, BB, R.  BA= .222.  Daniel Susac started a rehab assignment.  

Carson Whisenhunt LHP- 5.2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 4 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 3.38.  Whiz has 6 BB's and 6 K's in 10.2 IP this season.  20 BB and 22 K's in 34 IP on his career.  He looks bigger with a firmer fastball this season.

J. T. Brubaker RHP, Eric Miller LHP and Caleb Kilian RHP held the Rockies scoreless for the final 3.1 innings.  

Robbie Ray LHP tries to keep the winning going tonight facing Tanner Gordon RHP who comes in with an ERA of 6.95.

Down on the Farm: 7/8/2026

 AAA:  Sacramento River Cats beat the Salt Lake City Bees 6-1.

Osleivis Basabe 2B- 2 for 3, BB, 2 SB(9).  BA= .268.

Will Brennan RF- 2 for 3, SF.  BA= .360.

Scott Bandura CF- 1 for 2, HR(3), BB, SF.  BA= .252.

Cesar Perdomo LHP- 5 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 6 K's, 5/2 GO/AO.  ERA= 1.80.

Keaton Winn RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 0.00.

Joe Whitman LHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 4.20.

Reiver Sanmartin LHP- 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 5.19.

Cesar Perdomo has a successful AAA debut.  He pitched to a 3.98 ERA in AA over 72.1 IP,  Joe Whitman is a reliever now?

AA:  Altoona Curve downed the Richmond Flying Squirrels 8-5.

Parks Harber 3B- 1 for 3, 2B, SF.  BA= .289.

Sabin Ceballos 1B- 1 for 3, HR(11), BB.  BA= .230.

Carlos Gutierrez LF- 2 for 3, 2 BB.  BA= .258.

Lisbel Diaz RF- 4 for 4, HR(12).  BA= .264.

Hunter Dryden RHP- 5.1 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 4 K's.  ERA= 4.78.

Trevor Cohen has been one of the more consistent performers since he was drafted last year.  He fits the profile of a CF/leadoff hitter. Jhonny Level continues to more than hold his own in A+ at age 19.  Lisbel Diaz returns to the Ems after a brief stint in A San Jose, probably for organizational need.  He's been on fire since returning.

A:  San Jose Giants clobbered the Visalia Rawhide 15-4.

Jesus Lopez RHP(21 yo)- 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 6.63.

Game Wrap 7/8/2026: Blue Jays 10 Giants 0

The Blue Jays crushed the Giants in every phase of the game in the series finale.  Logan Webb RHP gave up a grand slam in the first inning.  Heliot Ramos LF got the Giants only hit of the game leading off the 9'th inning.  Rafael Devers 1B allowed 2 unearned runs to score in the 8'th inning when he made an awkward swiping motion at what looked like a perfect relay throw from Luis Arraez 2B and dropped the ball, one of 3 Giants errors in the game.  And finally, Ryan Walker RHP gave up back-to-back home runs while allowing 3 runs in the 9'th inning, admittedly long after the game was lost.  Webb recovered from his disaster first inning to pitch 6 more scoreless innings, but he can't give up 5 runs in the first inning and expect to win many games. 

Willy Adames comitted his 12'th error tying him for third highest among qualified SS's.  He continues to carry a negative Fangraphs Def ranking dead last among qualified SS's.  Rafael Devers has the highest number of errors of qualified first basemen although he is middle of the pack in Fangraphs Def.  

And what's going on with Ryan Walker?  His ERA was 6.46 when he was sent down to the minors after giving up 2 runs in 0.2 IP on May 9.  He came back on June 12 and pitches to a 2.84 ERA the rest of June. He's been putrid in 4 games in July allowing at least one run in all four with an ERA of 17.36 raising his season ERA to 7.52.  What useful role is he playing?  He couldn't even get his team off the field in the 9'th inning of a blowout game.  

The Rockies come to town for a 4 games series leading up to the All-Star Break.  Giants SP is TBD against Ryan Feltner RHP.
