Giants' Carson Ragsdale: Added to 40-man roster
The Giants selected Ragsdale to the 40-man roster Tuesday.
Ragsdale appeared in 27 games between Double-A Richmond and Triple-A Sacramento in 2024, producing a 5.03 ERA and 1.62 WHIP with 57 strikeouts over 53.2 innings in 13 appearances, including 12 starts. The right-hander will likely open the 2025 campaign with Sacramento in an attempt to refine his skills before a potential major-league debut during the season.

Giants' Carson Ragsdale: Makes Double-A debut
Ragsdale (forearm) struck out seven and allowed two earned runs on two hits and three walks over four innings Saturday in Double-A Richmond's 13-3 win over Somerset.
Despite being limited to just seven starts for High-A Eugene in 2023 before being shut down in late June with right forearm tightness, Ragsdale was advanced to Double-A to begin the 2024 season. The 25-year-old right-hander spotted 45 of his 68 pitches for strikes Saturday, and with the exception of the two-run home run he served up in the first inning, he largely avoided hard contact when he wasn't making bats miss. Ragsdale recorded four groundouts compared to one flyout on the day.

Giants' Carson Ragsdale: Sidelined with forearm soreness
Ragsdale, who is on the 7-day injured list at High-A Eugene with right forearm soreness, should return in late July, Baseball America reports.
Ragsdale, who ranked second in the minors with 167 strikeouts in 2021, got off to a great start with the Emeralds before the injury, although at 25, he is old for the level. The 6-foot-8 righty has a 2.93 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 42 strikeouts in 27.2 innings across seven starts.

Giants' Carson Ragsdale: Ready to go
Ragsdale (shoulder) has recovered from surgery and will break camp with High-A Eugene, Melissa Lockard of The Athletic reports.
Ragsdale was limited to 5.2 innings in rookie ball last season after recovering from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery. Giants farm director Kyle Haines added that Ragsdale has looked good with a mid-90s fastball and a strong slider. The right-hander will need to prove himself with Eugene before moving up to Double-A Richmond.

Giants' Carson Ragsdale: Needed thoracic outlet surgery
Ragsdale is recovering from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery this spring, Jim Callis of MLB.com reports.
As a point of reference, Brewers pitching prospect Antoine Kelly underwent thoracic outlet syndrome surgery in November 2020 and returned in July 2021, so Ragsdale may not be able to pitch at all this season. It's a major setback, as the success rate on making a full return from this procedure isn't great, and Ragsdale was coming off a strong 2021 season at Low-A.
