What happened: Yahoo MLB's "Friday BP" asks whether the San Francisco Giants can match the production of their 2025 trade deadline. At 31-43, the club sits well below .500, and the conversation around it has shifted to a seller's posture. MLB Network and former GM Dan O'Dowd have weighed how realistic that seller's market actually is.
Why it matters: The San Francisco Standard reports that Buster Posey will likely look to move Luis Arráez and Robbie Ray, and could be compelled to trade some of the team's highest-paid stars as well. How aggressively the front office sells will shape both the current roster and the franchise's direction into the rest of the 2026 season.
By the numbers: San Francisco is 31-43 this season, scoring 4.2 runs per game and allowing 4.9, but has won three in a row (last five WWWLL). The Giants took two of three from Miami in their April series, including 6-3 and 6-2 wins after dropping the opener 9-4.
What to watch: Watch whether the Giants formally commit to selling and which veterans draw the most interest as the deadline approaches.
