On today’s Locked On Giants, we dive into where the San Francisco Giants stand heading into their final series with the Rockies and what GM Zack Minasian had to say about the team’s direction. We break down Casey Schmitt’s case to be the starting second baseman in 2026 — does his glove make him too valuable to leave out of the lineup, or is his bat still too streaky to count on? Plus, the Giants landed one of the biggest prizes on the international market in Josuar De Jesus González, a shortstop with five-tool potential who could be the cornerstone of the franchise’s future.
