The San Francisco Giants made a notable move in the Rule Five Draft, acquiring catcher Daniel Susac, the younger brother of former Giants catcher Andrew Susac. The Athletics, who originally drafted Daniel, surprisingly didnt protect him, despite his strong offensive showing in Triple-A. The Giants will need to keep Susac on their roster for the entire 2026 season to retain his rights, but he could prove to be a valuable asset as a backup to Patrick Bailey.

Baseball projections for the San Francisco Giants suggest a slightly above .500 season, with a solid core of pitchers and hitters. Logan Webb, Robbie Ray, and Landen Roupp are projected to excel, while Matt Chapman, Willy Adames, and Rafael Devers are key offensive contributors. The bullpen is a concern, and the teams willingness to spend on new players is uncertain. Tyler Fitzgerald and Bryce Eldridge are surprises, with Fitzgerald potentially thriving and Eldridge still largely unknown. Pitchers Hayden Birdsong and Carson Whisenhunt have less encouraging projections. Despite limitations, the Giants aim for around eighty-five wins, potentially securing a wild card spot.

Jesús Rodríguez, a right-handed hitting catcher, has made a strong debut on the Giants prospect list, ranking 16th. Acquired in July from the Red Sox, Rodríguez has shown exceptional hitting skills, consistently performing well at every level. Despite a slight dip in performance with Triple-A Sacramento and a shoulder injury, his overall hitting prowess has earned him a high ranking. The Giants are considering him for the Opening Day roster, potentially backing up Patrick Bailey.
