SAN FRANCISCO — All signs point to the Giants being buyers ahead of the trade deadline.

New York Giants great Tiki Barber, who works with Esiason at WFAN, officially entered the fray on Monday afternoon. Barber said on his radio show that he saw Jeter in Cooperstown, N.Y, this past weekend at the National Baseball Hall of Fame ceremonies.

Diego Cartaya fizzled out with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Minnesota Twins, but that didn't stop the San Francisco Giants from taking a flier on the catcher.

The Giants have a huge decision to make prior to the trade deadline, and Buster Posey is going to have to figure it out quickly.

Randy Rodriguez allowed two home runs in the seventh and the San Francisco Giants wasted multiple scoring opportunities in a 5-3 loss to the Mets on Sunday.

Dusty Baker, the former manager of the San Francisco Giants, will manage Team Nicaragua in the 2026 World Baseball Classic, MLB and other outlets announced on Monday.

The Giants would much rather forget about the dreadful series that they recently concluded against the Mets, in which they were swept.
