BACK IN THE MIX: Giants Could Make a BIG Push for Tarik Skubal Oct 16, 2026

Show notes

The Dodgers LOSE, and we're looking at what their postseason exit means for the rest of baseball, including the Giants. Could Los Angeles pursue Tarik Skubal in free agency, or will uncertainty surrounding MLB's next collective bargaining agreement make a massive contract too risky? We compare payrolls around the league and examine whether spending big actually translates to winning. Plus, it's time for the Giants to address their unsettled catching situation, with Daniel Susac and Drew Cavanaugh competing for roles in 2027. Finally, we highlight three Giants prospects who could make an impact next season: Jackson Flora, Parks Harber and Gavin Kilen.

We break down what his recovery could mean for San Francisco's bullpen in 2027 and explore an even bigger possibility: could the Giants realistically trade for Padres superstar closer Mason Miller?

We break down five potential pitching targets for Buster Posey and whether the Giants should pursue a major addition to their rotation or bullpen. Plus, could Casey Schmitt be on the move? We examine the argument for trading the versatile infielder to address other roster needs and whether the Giants risk repeating the mistake they made with Adam Duvall.

Show notes

Mike Krukow isn't holding back when it comes to Willy Adames. The longtime Giants broadcaster delivered some harsh criticism of San Francisco's shortstop, questioning his defensive fundamentals, mental mistakes, leadership and place in the batting order following a disappointing 2026 season.

Plus, MLB insider Robert Murray ranks the top free agents available this offseason, giving us a chance to examine potential targets for Buster Posey and the Giants.

BIG MISTAKE: Giants May Be Regretting the Patrick Bailey Trade Oct 09, 2026

We revisit the Patrick Bailey trade and debate whether moving the catcher was a mistake. Plus, Bryce Eldridge's defensive development at first base creates an intriguing question about whether he's already a better option at the position than Rafael Devers. We also examine MLB's newly announced organizational Prospects of the Year and take a closer look at the latest minor-league rankings, including how much those rankings really tell us about the Giants' future.

Plus, Bryce Eldridge earns recognition among MLB's top rookies after his first extended look in the majors.
