Locked On Giants – Daily Podcast On The San Francisco Giants

With the offseason clock ticking, Grant Brisbee ranks the best remaining free-agent fits for the Giants — and it raises real questions about how much flexibility San Francisco still has to improve this roster. We break down Brisbee’s list, where the Giants can realistically upgrade, and how the market is shifting as big names come off the board. Plus, a full winter roundup including Max Scherzer’s unusual free-agency strategy, the massive MacKenzie Gore trade that reshapes expectations for pitching deals, and why the Rangers’ aggressive move matters for teams like the Giants. We also spotlight one of the organization’s fastest-rising prospects, Parks Harber, whose journey from non-drafted free agent to top third-base riser is turning heads across baseball. Where does this leave the Giants — and what’s still possible before spring training?0:00 Best Remaining Free Agents for Giants13:02 Winter Round Up18:49 Parks Harber’s RISE#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichette #loganwebb #freddyperaltaTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

Bryce Eldridge finally addressed the trade rumors — and his message to Giants fans was loud and clear. Speaking at Fan Fest, the Giants’ top power prospect said he wants to be in San Francisco for the long haul, pushing back on speculation that his name could be moved as the offseason drags on. We break down Eldridge’s candid comments, his wrist surgery recovery, and why what he played through last season actually raises his ceiling going forward. Plus, we zoom out to the bigger picture: are the Giants still willing to spend more, or are they approaching another wait-and-see stretch? With multiple Giants prospects landing in Baseball America’s Top 100, more names coming off the free-agent board, and major moves happening elsewhere — including Cody Bellinger returning to the Yankees and Freddy Peralta landing with the Mets — the contrast between patience and urgency has never felt sharper.0:00 Bryce Eldridge on Trade Rumors11:14 Pivot to Framber Valdez?19:25 Winter Round Up#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichette #loganwebb #freddyperaltaTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

The Giants may finally be circling something real. Jon Heyman reports San Francisco is among the teams checking in on Brewers ace Freddy Peralta, a controllable frontline starter with a manageable salary that fits just about everyone — including the Giants. We break down what Peralta would actually cost, why Milwaukee might move him, and whether this signals a shift from patience to action. Plus, the Cody Bellinger standoff drags on as the Yankees wait and luxury tax penalties loom, forcing the market into another staring contest. We also dive into the Giants operating deep in free agency, potential fits like Miguel Andújar, Starling Marte, and Adam Frazier, and the uncomfortable question hanging over everything: are the Giants quietly treating 2026 as a gap year? The signals are mixed — but they’re getting louder.0:00 Freddy Peralta Cost11:18 Deep Dive on FAs18:26 2026 a gap year?#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichette #loganwebb #freddyperaltaTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

The offseason just tilted — hard. Kyle Tucker lands with the Dodgers on a staggering four-year, $240 million deal that resets the market, while Bo Bichette heads to the Mets on a short-term, opt-out-heavy contract and Ranger Suárez cashes in with the Red Sox. We break down the structure of Tucker’s record-setting deal, why the Dodgers keep winning at the margins, and what Bichette’s Mets fit tells us about today’s shifting free-agent landscape. Plus, a look at who’s still left on the board, why this moment is so frustrating for Giants fans, how these moves reshape the NL race, and what it all means as MLB inches closer to another looming labor fight. The money is flying — just not evenly — and the gap between the haves and have-nots is becoming impossible to ignore.0:00 Kyle Tucker to the Dodgers10:36 What are free agents are left?19:41 Giants next moves#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichette #loganwebb #nicohoerner #brendandonovanTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

Happy Luis Hernández Day to all who celebrate. The Giants officially sign 17-year-old Venezuelan shortstop Luis Hernández for $5 million, and early evaluations suggest this is far more than a long-term lottery ticket. Multiple scouts believe Hernández is advanced enough to jump straight to Class A, with rare maturity, polish, and tool development for his age — making him one of the most MLB-ready international signees in this class. We break down what makes Hernández special, how he fits into a rapidly improving Giants farm system, and what his arrival means alongside elite prospects like Josuar González and Bryce Eldridge. Plus, we revisit the Nico Hoerner trade debate, why Chicago is likely holding firm, and how the Giants’ growing prospect depth could eventually create real trade flexibility. The present may feel middling, but the long game in San Francisco is starting to look a lot more intentional.0:00 Giants sign Top Prospect Luis Hernandez10:45 Nico Hoerner Debates19:46 Josuar Gonzalez LeapTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

The Giants are officially in the mix — and this time, it’s not vague interest. According to Jeff Passan, San Francisco is aggressively pursuing a second baseman and is actively engaged in trade talks with the Cubs for Nico Hoerner and the Cardinals for Brendan Donovan. We break down what each player would bring, why the Giants are prioritizing this move now, and how an infield featuring Matt Chapman, Willy Adames, Rafael Devers, and either Hoerner or Donovan could be one of the best in baseball. Plus, a full winter roundup as Alex Bregman lands a massive deal, Bo Bichette meets with the Phillies, the Yankees continue negotiations with Cody Bellinger, Nolan Arenado heads to Arizona, and why the Giants could still be lining up a smaller trade this week.

The Giants’ outfield situation just got more complicated — and possibly more intentional. After DFA’ing Justin Dean to make room for Tyler Mahle and losing Joey Wiemer on waivers to Washington, the immediate reaction is fair: has the outfield defense actually improved at all? We break down the glass-half-empty view versus the glass-half-full theory — and why it’s hard to believe the Giants would make these moves without a larger plan in mind. Plus, big-name market updates as Framber Valdez becomes open to shorter deals, teams show a growing preference for Cody Bellinger over Kyle Tucker, and the Giants continue to be mentioned among serious suitors. We also dig into the growing backlash around the idea of a free-agency signing deadline and why players are pushing back hard. Are the Giants clearing space for a legitimate outfield upgrade, or are they done tinkering?

The Giants are suddenly being linked to some of the biggest remaining names on the market — but what does it actually mean? According to John Heyman and Mark Feinsand, San Francisco has been connected to breakout starter Edward Cabrera and star outfielder Kyle Tucker, even as the overall free-agent market continues to stall. We break down why this offseason has been quieter than expected, how inflated early projections may have missed the mark, and whether the Giants’ patience is strategic or simply a sign their biggest moves are already behind them. Plus, why rival executives believe San Francisco still needs bullpen help, potential upgrades at second base and right field, and whether Buster Posey and the front office are positioning themselves for a late surprise — or settling into what they already have.0:00 Edward Cabrera trade possibility11:05 Kyle Tucker Interest20:29 Old moves count for new moves?Tune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

GM Zack Minasian addressed the Giants’ offseason direction, offering clarity — and raising new questions — about where this roster is headed. Tyler Mahle also spoke, saying he feels the best physically he has since 2021, while Minasian made it clear the Giants are “very comfortable” with their five-man rotation heading into spring, even as Tatsuya Imai signs for less than expected elsewhere. We break down what the Giants’ silence really means, why they may be waiting rather than stalling, and how finances, the RSN landscape, and looming CBA uncertainty could be shaping this offseason. Plus, what’s next for the lineup, whether Posey is being stonewalled or simply patient, and why this front office still feels like it’s holding something back.0:00 Zack Minasian Speaks on Imai11:35 Why the Giants haven’t made a move21:05 Posey being stonewalled?#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichette #loganwebbTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

The Giants appear to have rounded out their 2026 rotation, coming to terms with right-hander Tyler Mahle on a one-year deal as they continue to prioritize short-term pitching flexibility. Mahle joins Logan Webb, Robbie Ray, Landen Roupp, and Adrian Houser, signaling a clear strategy shift away from long-term starter commitments — and likely closing the door on a splashier move like Tatsuya Imai, who now looks Houston-bound. We break down what Mahle brings when healthy, why the Giants were comfortable betting on upside and durability risk, and how payroll realities may have shaped this approach. Plus, what this move says about the Giants’ remaining offseason priorities, whether they’re truly “done,” and if attention now turns to upgrading the lineup.0:00 Giants sign Tyler Mahle10:24 Why they were out on Imai20:18 Are they done making moves?#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichette #loganwebbTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

Which Giants star is least likely to actually finish their contract in San Francisco? In today’s episode of Locked On Giants, we dive into the uncomfortable long-term realities surrounding the team’s biggest deals, breaking down Matt Chapman, Willy Adames, and Rafael Devers through age, salary structure, and real roster flexibility. We look past no-trade clauses to ask a more honest question: when contracts collide with timelines, who becomes expendable? Plus, we react to national “Giants should make” lists, spotlight rising prospect Carlos Gutierrez, and examine how the front office may already be planning for tough decisions ahead.

When will the Giants finally make their move? In today’s episode of Locked On Giants, we dig into why the market has gone quiet across MLB and whether the Giants’ patience could actually be working in their favor. We break down when real movement could begin, the Giants’ latest minor-league addition with Nick Margevicius, and what the silence might be telling us about the pitching and trade market as a whole. Plus, we examine how much runway Tony Vitello may actually have compared to recent Giants managers, and what history tells us about ownership timelines. Is this calm before the storm — or the start of something more concerning?

What’s the uncomfortable truth about Logan Webb — and are the Giants heading toward a decision fans don’t want to hear? In today’s episode, we dive into Logan Webb’s contract timeline, his looming free agency after the 2028 season, and why the Giants’ long-standing reluctance to pay aging starting pitchers could put them on a collision course with their ace. We break down a thought-provoking argument from McCovey Chronicles on whether the Giants would be better off trading Webb before free agency rather than settling for a qualifying offer — especially with uncertainty around the next CBA. Plus, we discuss what Webb himself might want after years with the organization and limited postseason success, how Buster Posey and Zack Minasian’s timelines factor into all of this, and why ownership may actually prefer the current setup. We also hit on offseason wish-list items, including Harrison Bader, Tatsuya Imai, and the early buzz around Bo Davidson, as the Giants navigate a pivotal crossroads for both their present and future.0:00 Logan Webb’s future11:22  Posey and Minasian Timline23:42 Christmas Wishlist#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichette #loganwebbTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

Is the market finally proving the Giants right? In today’s episode, we dive into growing doubts around Tatsuya Imai’s price tag, why the Yankees appear to be out, and whether a short-term “prove it” deal—similar to Munetaka Murakami—could now be the reality. We also break down a group of underrated free agents flying under the radar, including Michael Kopech, Zach Eflin, and José Urquidy, and what they could offer contenders willing to gamble. Plus, we zoom out to the bigger picture: a slower-than-expected offseason, teams hesitating on long-term risk, and whether the Giants’ patience is actually creating leverage. Finally, we tackle a key internal question — is there any realistic path where Bryce Eldridge doesn’t start 2026 in the big leagues? What his brief MLB debut told us, why the Giants may still prefer Triple-A seasoning, and how that decision impacts potential external additions at first base or DH.0:00 Waiting on Tatsuya Imai9:36  Underrated Free Agents20:49 Could Bryce Eldridge start in AAA?#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoerner #tatsuyaimai #bryceeldridge #bobichetteTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

We break down why the MLB market is clearly cooler than projections, highlighted by Munetaka Murakami settling for a short-term deal after being forecast for a massive payday. We connect that to the Giants’ patient approach, recent roster moves like DFA’ing Wade Meckler and Joey Wiemer, and growing trade buzz across the league. With Bo Bichette increasingly linked to San Francisco, teams making aggressive trades, and evidence mounting that long-term megadeals aren’t materializing, the question becomes: are the Giants waiting wisely — or running out of time? Plus, why trades might be inevitable, and what recent deals around the league tell us about where this is headed next.0:00 Goodbye, Wade Meckler and Joey Wiemer9:42  Bowden matches Bo with Giants21:46 The REAL Hold up on TradesTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

What if the Giants’ offseason silence isn’t confusion — but calculation? In today’s episode, we dig into the idea that San Francisco may have read the market better than anyone else. With elite names like Framber Valdez, Ranger Suárez, Kyle Tucker, Cody Bellinger, and Bo Bichette still unsigned, the free-agent market hasn’t moved the way many expected. We compare timelines from past megadeals, question whether early contracts like Cody Ponce’s were overpays, and explore whether the Giants’ patience could pay off as leverage shifts. Plus, Giants interest in Nico Hoerner, what this means for Casey Schmitt, thoughts on Logan Webb pitching in the WBC, and why waiting might actually be the smartest move Buster Posey has made yet.0:00 Is the market slow?11:45 Nico Hoerner Interest21:12 Logan Webb in WBC#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraft #ketelmarte #nicohoernerTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

The Giants finally add a starting pitcher, agreeing to a two-year, $22 million deal with Adrian Houser, plus a club option for a third year — signaling a clear shift toward stabilizing the rotation. In today’s episode, we break down Houser’s fit, his recent velocity spike, injury history, and where he slots in a Giants rotation that still needs another arm. We also cover the Jason Foley bullpen addition, what it means for the closer picture, and why the Giants are still shopping at the top of the pitching market with names like Framber Valdez and Zac Gallen lingering. Plus, Ketel Marte puts the Giants on his no-trade list, more offseason roster moves, and what this tells us about Buster Posey’s plan as San Francisco tries to balance patience with urgency.

The Giants’ offseason messaging is getting harder to decipher. Tyler Rogers heads to Toronto on one of the richest reliever deals of the winter, while San Francisco continues to float between big-name rumors and cost-conscious reality. We break down why the Giants were priced out on Rogers, what that means for the bullpen, and why Brendan Donovan remains a real trade target with Seattle and San Francisco emerging as frontrunners. Plus, mixed signals on Cody Bellinger, conflicting comments from ownership and the front office, and why national voices like Ken Rosenthal are openly confused about the Giants’ plan. We also dive into a major philosophical shift: baserunning. After ranking among MLB’s worst on the basepaths in 2025, Buster Posey and the coaching staff are betting that instincts, coaching, and selective aggression can unlock hidden value — even without elite speed. Is this a smart inefficiency play… or another sign the Giants are threading the needle instead of pushing all-in?0:00 Goodbye, Tyler Rogers…again9:47  Cody Bellinger & Brendan Donovan20:46 Better on the BasesTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.

The Giants continue to confuse the baseball world, and even Ken Rosenthal is calling out how unclear their plan is. On today’s show, we break down Rosenthal’s comments about why San Francisco isn’t spending at the top of the market—especially on pitching—despite already committing major dollars to Devers, Adames, and Chapman. We dive into why Bo Bichette and Brenden Donovan make so much sense as targets, how the messaging between Buster Posey and Tony Vitello seems out of sync, and what Posey’s latest comments on Bryce Eldridge really mean. Plus: the latest Winter Meetings rumblings, the Giants’ interest in Freddy Peralta, potential matches with the Cardinals and Cubs, and the ongoing search for pitching help as Robert Murray reports San Francisco is still waiting for the right move. We close by asking the big question everyone’s dancing around: What are the real chances this Giants team can contend for a World Series in 2026—or is this a wait-and-see year?0:00: Brendan Donovan Trade?13:22:  What’s the REAL Timeline?22:17 Winter Meeting Round Up#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraftEverydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

Buster Posey finally opened up on Giants Talk, and his comments about Bryce Eldridge, the organizational hitting philosophy, and the club’s approach to trades sent a clear message: the Giants are listening… but they aren’t eager to move their prized young star. Posey called Eldridge a potential 10–15 year impact bat and emphasized the organization’s belief in contact skills that can grow into power — a philosophy that now shapes everything from trade talks to player development.We also dig into the growing industry expectation that the Giants’ next major move might come via trade, not free agency. San Francisco is among the teams showing interest in Brewers ace Freddy Peralta, and multiple league insiders say the Giants are heavily involved in starter conversations — but not close to anything yet.Plus: A full winter meetings roundup, why Posey’s quotes matter more than people think, and how the Giants are positioning themselves for the next wave of roster decisions.0:00: Buster Posey Speaks8:50: Freddy Peralta Trade?20:07 Not close on FAs#sfgiants  #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kbo #junghoolee #jtrealmuto #kyleschwarber #kyletucker #codybellinger #mlbdraftEverydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
