Written about him
Seven of the thirteen men who started for the Giants cannot pitch this week
Thirteen pitchers started a game for San Francisco in 2026. Seven of them are unavailable for the final homestand: Tyler Mahle was traded to Atlanta on August 2 and Robbie Ray to San Diego on August 3, while Trevor McDonald, JT Brubaker, Carson Whisenhunt, Adrian Houser and Logan Webb are all on the injured list. Those seven made 105 of the club's 156 starts, or 67.3 percent. Measured the same way on the same morning, with all thirty clubs carrying 28-man active rosters, that is the highest figure in the major leagues; the league median is 27.2 percent and Toronto is second at 50.0. The six starters still standing are Landen Roupp (29 starts), Blade Tidwell (8), Matt Wilkinson (5), Anthony Molina (4), Cesar Perdomo (3) and Yunior Marte (2), for six games in seven days. Wilkinson threw five scoreless innings at Dodger Stadium on Sunday with a career-high six strikeouts in a 3-1 loss. Tidwell starts against Minnesota tonight. One take filed.
The blister cost Logan Webb two starts and nothing else
San Francisco placed Logan Webb on the 15-day injured list on September 18 with a right middle finger blister and shut him down for the season, ending a year in which he made 27 starts and threw 160 2/3 innings at a 4.31 earned run average. It is his second injured list stint of 2026; he did not start for 20 San Francisco games in May with right knee bursitis. The 160 2/3 innings end a run of three straight seasons above 200, and two more starts at this year's rate would have left him near 172. His innings per start has fallen in each of the three seasons since 2023: 6.55, 6.20, 6.09, 5.95. Over his last five starts he allowed 23 earned runs in 21 2/3 innings. Landen Roupp has already made more starts than Webb this season, the first time anyone on the club has since 2021, and needs six innings across his remaining turns to pass him in innings as well. Hayden Birdsong, Trevor McDonald and Carson Whisenhunt are all on the club's injured list rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. One take filed.
Every Team Left On The Giants' Schedule Has A Number. San Francisco Has A Letter.
San Francisco is eliminated from postseason contention. The league's standings feed carried a wild-card elimination number of two for the Giants through Saturday's games and has read E, in both the wild-card and division columns, from Sunday's games onward. Sunday was a 4-2 loss at Citi Field; Arizona beat Houston 3-2 the same afternoon. San Francisco is 61-85 through 146 games, so its maximum possible win total is 77, and Philadelphia (81-64), the Cubs (81-65) and Arizona (78-68) already have more than that, against three wild-card places. The Giants have won both games since, 5-4 in eleven innings Monday on a Shay Whitcomb single and 2-1 Tuesday behind six scoreless innings from Landen Roupp, with both runs coming on solo home runs by Bryce Eldridge and Christian Koss. Sixteen games remain against four opponents, and every one of the four still has a live elimination number: four with St. Louis (72-74, number 10), three with San Diego (77-68, half a game behind Arizona for the third wild card, number 16), three with Minnesota (69-76, number 12) and six with the Dodgers (88-57, leading the National League West by ten and a half). Arizona does not appear on San Francisco's remaining schedule and neither does Colorado, the only other eliminated club in the National League at 55-89. The season ends at Oracle Park against the Dodgers on September 27. San Francisco has used 64 players in 2026 and 15 of them made their major league debut this season. Two takes filed.
A Rainout In Atlanta In June Left The Giants Needing Two Starters On Saturday
San Francisco's schedule from Friday to Monday asks for four starting pitchers. Blade Tidwell is the only one named. Saturday is a split doubleheader at Oracle Park, moved off Sunday on June 23 to clear a travel day for the makeup of a June 18 rainout in Atlanta, which is now Monday. Ten men have started a game for the Giants in 2026; Robbie Ray and Tyler Mahle were traded, Trevor McDonald and Carson Whisenhunt are on the 60-day injured list, Adrian Houser went on the 15-day list Wednesday, JT Brubaker is on the 15-day list, and Matt Wilkinson was optioned to Sacramento on August 24. That leaves Logan Webb, Landen Roupp and Blade Tidwell, and all three are already spoken for. The club is carrying thirteen pitchers, which is the most the rules allow before September 1, when the active roster goes to 28 and the pitcher limit to 14. The doubleheader lets it add a 27th man for one day, and that exception is the only way Wilkinson pitches in the majors before September 8. Two takes filed, on the 27th man and on the length of the four starts.
