The San Francisco Giants are struggling in their 2024 campaign, sitting at a 67-67 record and facing significant challenges to secure a National League wild card spot. In a bid to shed salary, the Giants placed Tyler Matzek, Taylor Rogers, and Thairo Estrada on waivers, potentially aiding playoff contenders in need of reinforcements. Compounding their difficulties, two key pitchers, Robbie Ray and Jordan Hicks, were placed on the injured list, further diminishing their playoff hopes. Despite this, rookie Tyler Fitzgerald has been a standout, delivering unexpected elite performance and earning recognition as one of the best rookies in the National League. Meanwhile, the Seattle Mariners secured a series win against the Giants, with Dylan Moore achieving a career-high of three steals in a single game. Additionally, the Reds' Alexis Diaz made history with his brother Edwin, as both gave up walk-off home runs on the same day, a first in MLB history.
