BIG DECISIONS: Prioritizing DRAFT Position | Giants HOTTEST Team in MLB | Gilbert vs. Matos

The San Francisco Giants are the hottest team in the National League — but is it too late for the Wild Card push? Behind Kai-Wei Teng’s best outing yet, a 4-for-4 night from Drew Gilbert, and big homers from Willy Adames and Rafael Devers, the Giants rolled to an 8–2 win in Colorado. It feels like this hot streak was expected once the pressure of the playoff chase began to fade, but the math still leaves them on the outside looking in. We also dive into the right field battle: Gilbert is red-hot, Luis Matos is fighting to prove he can handle a platoon, and Heliot Ramos has put in the work but faces questions. Who gets the nod down the stretch, and what does it mean for 2026? Finally, we break down the latest roster and injury updates — with Grant McCray back, Marco Luciano’s situation getting complicated, and new bullpen moves shaping the final weeks of the season. 0:00 Giants Hot and Draft Position 9:34 Right Field Battle 19:48 Roster and Injury Updates Tune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!
