SAN FRANCISCO -- Jordan Hicks didn’t record any strikeouts in his last start against the D-backs, but he more than made up for it when he returned to the mound to face the Pirates on Saturday night. Hicks racked up a career-high nine strikeouts over six-plus innings of one-run ball,

There's a longtime scout who likes to say, "The Draft is hard." The 2014 Draft was very hard. It's just one of three Drafts where the No. 1 overall pick finished his career without reaching the Majors, and the only one where neither of the top two selections made it.

Three years ago, Charlie Condon attracted zero interest from pro scouts or NCAA Division I baseball programs. He wound up at Georgia as a preferred walk-on and redshirted during his first season in Athens. Now he's the best prospect in the 2024 Draft and sits atop MLB Pipeline's updated and

There are a kajillion reasons to love baseball -- especially Minor League Baseball. The bobblehead, which has been greeted with an enthusiastic "Yes" from baseball fans at least since MLB put out a set featuring the likes of Roberto Clemente, Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays in 1960, combines many of

SAN FRANCISCO -- At the beginning of the month, it looked like Keaton Winn would get only a brief look in the Giants’ starting rotation. Winn opened the season as the club’s fifth starter, but he seemed to be in line for a shift to the bullpen once Alex Cobb
