Enny Romero's passport contains more stamps than most. As a non-roster invitee with the Giants, Romero is as close as he's been in recent years to making his return. The Giants could use another left-handed reliever beyond Erik Miller, and Romero just might fit the bill. “What I've learned is to always keep my head up,” Romero said through team interpreter Erwin Higueros.

In 1983 Blue appeared in only 19 games for the Kansas City Royals, going 0-5 with a 6.01 ERA at the relatively young age of 33. The following year he'd be out of baseball completely before coming back with the San Francisco Giants, where he'd put in two seasons before retiring for good after 1986. Of course, we all know that Vida Blue absolutely exploded onto the Major League scene in 1971, on his way to capturing both the Cy Young and MVP awards by season's end. Blue would go on to post 209 career victories in the Majors, having some successful seasons with the San Francisco Giants, even starting the 1978 All-Star game for the National League, while finishing up his 17-year career in 1986.

Lee Jung-hoo of the San Francisco Giants has extended his on-base streak in spring training to 10 games. Lee drew a walk while going 0-for-2 with a run scored in the Giants' 7-4 win over the San Diego Padres at Scottsdale Stadium in Scottsdale, Arizona, on Sunday (local time).

The San Francisco Giants have an old dog on their roster that is hoping to learn a new trick. MLB's David Adler recently did a piece highlighting some of the new pitches that have been debuted so far in spring training with great success. In it, he pointed out Giants southpaw Robbie Ray's new changeup. Adler shared that Ray had asked reigning Triple Crown and Cy Young champion Tarik Skubal of the Detroit Tigers for his changeup grip.

Hicks allowed three runs over 2 2/3 innings as the split-squad Giants beat the San Diego Padres at Scottsdale Stadium, 7-4, exiting in the third inning after failing to record a single out but re-entering in the fourth inning and finishing his outing strong. The right-hander threw 62 pitches in total, sitting in the 95-97 mph range and touching 100 mph on two occasions. Results aside, Hicks feels stronger than he did at this point last spring. “That's 60 pitches right there and I felt like I could've kept going and it's only my third start — second real start with fans and everything,” Hicks said.

The San Francisco Giants were under new management this offseason with Buster Posey taking over as president of baseball operations from Farhan Zaidi. The legendary catcher, who helped the franchise win three World Series during his time as a player, is looking to bring the team back to prominence now as a member of their front office. Everyone is chasing the defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers, who loaded up their team even more this winter. The Arizona Diamondbacks made some major additions with starting pitcher Corbin Burnes and first baseman Josh Naylor.

The Giants entered spring training with three Carsons in camp: Carson Whisenhunt, Carson Ragsdale and Carson Seymour. San Francisco reassigned Whisenhunt, its best pitching prospect, to minor-league camp on Thursday, and as of Sunday morning, the Carson count is down to zero. The Giants announced prior to Sunday's game against the San Diego Padres at Scottsdale Stadium that Ragsdale and Seymour, a pair of 26-year-old right-handers, have been optioned as San Francisco begins to stretch out other starting pitchers.

Nevada and San Francisco combined to hit five home runs Saturday at Benedetti Diamond, but it was the Dons getting a game-tying two-run shot in the seventh, then a solo winner in the eighth to even the weekend series with a 7-6 victory. Nevada (8-6) could also rue missed chances at the plate.

Left-hander Erik Miller made his first appearance of Cactus League play on Saturday at Scottsdale Stadium after dealing with a pair of setbacks, tossing a scoreless inning and striking out three batters as the Giants beat the Royals, 7-3. The Giants are still trying to determine whether he'll be the only lefty in their bullpen come Opening Day. San Francisco entered spring training with Miller as the only left-handed reliever on their 40-man roster.

The Reds announced their pitching rotation to start the season on Saturday's broadcast against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Reds open the season against the Giants on March 27 at 4:10 p.m. ET at Great American Ballpark. See the pitching rotation below: Hunter Greene: March 27 Nick Lodolo: March 29 Nick Martinez: March 30 Brady Singer: March 31 Hunter Greene will be the sixth Reds pitcher since 1900 to start in multiple season openers before turning 26. The fifth starter is yet to be announced. If Andrew Abbott is healthy, he would most likely get the nod. If he is not ready by the start of the season, it will most likely be Carson Spiers or Graham Ashcraft. Make sure you bookmark Cincinnati

With spring training rolling right along for the San Francisco Giants, the start of the regular season is right around the corner. After a mediocre at best winter, the Giants are a hard team to judge heading into the 2025 campaign. This offseason, San Francisco was able to shed some payroll and at the same time add an impact bat in Willy Adames to their lineup. The batting order of the Giants has been a major issue in recent years, and the hope is that Adames will be the missing piece for them.

Justin Verlander was on a minor-league rehab assignment when he got his first taste of the automated ball-strike system, or ABS. Verlander hadn't used the system before and didn't plan on challenging any pitches. Before his outing, Verlander told his catcher to handle any and all appeals. “The first time he didn't appeal, I thought it was a strike,” Verlander said with a smile.

San Francisco Giants legend Barry Bonds made headlines with his recent claim that he could still hit a 100 mph fastball even at his age of 60 years old. While people might be quick to dismiss that, it also should be remembered that Bonds not only was one of the greatest hitters of all time with 12 Silver Slugger Awards and two batting titles as a power hitter, but he also led Major League Baseball in walks and on-base percentage during his final season at the age of 42 while slashing .276/.480/.565. The folklore of Bonds is hard to ignore when it comes to this claim, and former Giants player Andrew McCutchen added even more fuel to that fire when sharing an incredible story about the seven-time MVP.

The San Francisco Giants are drafting at the same exact spot that they did last year and they could do the same exact thing that they did last year. Bleacher Report's Joel Reuter recently released an updated 2025 MLB mock draft in which the Giants select a college outfielder at the the No. 13 overall spot. This time around, the mocked selection was Arizona Wildcats star Brendan Summerhill.

There is still a lot of work the San Francisco Giants' brain trust has to do during spring training. More rounds of cuts are on the horizon as the Major League roster will be pared down in preparation for the regular season. As shared by Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic (subscription required), Melvin told media members in attendance to pay close attention to who he penciled in that afternoon.

San Francisco Giants shortstop Willy Adames has a message for the doubters of the team. The Giants are not necessarily considered to be a true contender, but Adames believes the ball club can make some noise in 2025. “It's been amazing,” Adames said of his time so far with the Giants. Adames signed with the Giants this past offseason.

It's been nearly 20 years since San Francisco Giants legend Barry Bonds' last Major League at-bat, but he's still supremely confident in his skills. Across 22 seasons with the Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates, Bonds put together an extraordinary career. The sport has changed a lot since Bonds' final plate appearance in 2007, but he doesn't feel the game has passed him by based on what he said during a recent appearance on All the Smoke.
