• Giants' Logan Webb: Fans five in Cactus League win

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Webb recorded his second win of the spring by surrendering two runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five over 4.2 innings during Monday's Cactus League victory over the Rockies. Webb navigated around trouble in the early going, giving up an RBI double in the second inning and a two-run homer in the third, but he still managed to come away with the win and had his swing and miss stuff working. Skipper Bob Melvin announced in February that Webb would serve as the club's Opening Day starter, so now it's just a matter of continuing to ramp up in preparation for the start of the 2025 regular season.

• Giants' Logan Webb: Confirmed as Opening Day starter

  28D ago • By RotoWire

  Giants manager Bob Melvin announced Friday that Webb will start Opening Day against the Reds on March 27, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. The right-hander has firmly established himself as San Francisco's ace, so it's no surprise he'll be taking the ball in the season opener. It won't be the most favorable matchup at hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park, however. Webb made 33 starts in each of the past two seasons and posted a 3.47 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 172:50 K:BB across 204.2 innings during 2024.

• Giants' Logan Webb: Six strong innings in win

  09/25/2024 • By RotoWire

  Webb (13-10) got the win over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday after throwing six shutout innings while allowing four hits and a walk. He struck out three. Webb was staked a seven-run lead by the third inning and that lead grew to 10 by the fifth. Still, he never let up and tossed his seventh outing of at least six scoreless innings this season. Tuesday was likely Webb's final start of the season. He'll finish as one of a handful of pitchers to surpass 200 innings this season and he currently sits 10th in the National League with a 3.47 ERA. Overall, Webb owns a 3.47 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 172:50 K:BB in 204.2 innings.

• Giants' Logan Webb: Stumbles in fourth inning

  09/19/2024 • By RotoWire

  Webb didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Orioles, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out eight. Webb got off to a strong start against Baltimore, allowing just two baserunners through his first three scoreless innings. However, the right-hander allowed the first three batters to reach in the fourth, ultimately allowing three runs in the frame. While Webb's eight strikeouts matched a season high, he's now allowed three or more runs in each of his last five outings while posting a 6.57 ERA in that span. Webb's ERA now sits at 3.58 on the season with a 1.24 WHIP and 169:49 K:BB. He'll likely make one more start this season, tentatively lined up for early next week in Arizona.

• Giants' Logan Webb: Short start in loss

  09/14/2024 • By RotoWire

  Webb (12-10) allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits and a walk while striking out four over four innings to take the loss Friday versus the Padres. Webb failed to complete five innings for the first time since May 5. With the Giants essentially out of playoff contention, it appears manager Bob Melvin won't ask for too much of Webb down the stretch, especially since the ace has hit a rough patch with 17 runs allowed (16 earned) on 29 hits and six walks over his last 21 innings. The right-hander is now at a 3.53 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 161:47 K:BB through a major-league-leading 193.2 innings over 31 starts. Webb's next start is set to come on the road, but it's unclear if it'll be in Baltimore or Kansas City, as the Giants could get Robbie Ray (hamstring) back some time next week.
