27. Logan Webb | Starting Pitcher<\/p>\n
If you appreciate pitching more as an art than as something constructed in a high-tech laboratory, then Webb is your guy. By current standards, his 92-mph fastball is pedestrian, but he knows how to set batters up with a five-pitch arsenal and even led the NL in strikeouts in 2025 \u2014 while also topping the circuit in innings for the third consecutive season.<\/p>\n
He does have a notable home-field advantage (his career ERA is more than a run lower at home), but his track record of durability and success makes him one of the safest bets for 2026.<\/p>\n
Season prediction:\u00a0He leads the league again in innings pitched, wins 15 games and his improved strikeout rate from 2025 holds as he once again tops 200 K\u2019s.<\/p>\n
ESPN\u2019s David Schoenfield<\/a><\/p>\n 56. Rafael Devers | DH, 3B & 1B<\/p>\n Playing at Oracle Park will do a number on even the best hitters, and Devers\u2019 OPS dropped nearly 100 points with San Francisco compared to the first 2\u00bd months he spent with Boston last year.<\/p>\n Entering his 10th big league season at just 29, he heads into 2026 without any of the\u00a0drama that ensconced his final days in Boston.<\/p>\n Between how hard he hits the ball and how good he is at drawing walks, Devers should be one of the foremost sluggers in baseball. If the Giants\u2019 aspirations to make the postseason for the first time since 2021 are going to come true, they need him to be just that.<\/p>\n Season prediction:\u00a0.272\/.385\/.491 with 28 home runs, 102 RBIs and 91 runs.<\/p>\n ESPN\u2019s Jeff Passan<\/a><\/p>\n Rafael Devers annihilates home run No. 20 pic.twitter.com\/Q5Io4WB3ob<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Talkin\u2019 Baseball (@TalkinBaseball_) August 3, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n 58. Matt Chapman | 3B<\/p>\n From Heinie Groh to Evan Longoria, the San Francisco Giants have a long history of solid play at the hot corner, a tradition that has certainly continued during Chapman\u2019s first two years with the franchise.<\/p>\n While there was some regression from Chapman in the fielding and baserunning columns from his debut for San Francisco in 2024, the biggest difference was games played.<\/p>\n Troublesome hand issues landed Chapman on the IL twice and limited him to 128 games in 2025, his fewest in a normal season since his 2017 MLB debut with the A\u2019s. Keeping that number over 140 is the key to Chapman\u2019s 2026 season \u2014 and one of the keys to the Giants\u2019 playoff chances.<\/p>\n Season prediction:\u00a0You don\u2019t want to read\u00a0too much into one spring training swing, but a 460-foot Cactus League blast suggests that last year\u2019s hand woes are behind Chapman. If so, a positive regression in the power department will push him into the five-or-six-win range and bump him up that solid Giants\u2019 all-time pecking order for third basemen.<\/p>\n ESPN\u2019s Bradford Doolittle<\/a><\/p>\n 62. Willy Adames | SS<\/p>\n Year 1 in San Francisco ended up looking much like his final season with the Brewers, as Adames reached 30 home runs for the third time in four seasons and 80 RBIs for the fourth consecutive season.<\/p>\n In fact, he became the first Giants hitter to reach 30 home runs since Barry Bonds (2004), doing so with a first-inning blast in the final game of the season. Sure, Adames is unlikely to ever compete for a batting title (he hit .225 in 2025), but he hits for power and offers excellent defense.<\/p>\n In short, this is what Giants president Buster Posey expected when he signed Adames to a seven-year contract.<\/p>\n Season prediction:\u00a0Adames appears in all 162 games and earns his first Gold Glove award. Oh, and he hits a career-high 34 home runs.<\/p>\n ESPN\u2019s Eric Karabell<\/a><\/p>\n More MLB content from Sactown Sports<\/p>\n Upcoming San Francisco Giants & MLB Offseason Schedule<\/p>\n February-March: Spring Training Thank you for reading\u00a0SactownSports.com<\/a>.
