Giants activated LHP Sam Hentges from the 15-day injured list.

Hentges missed three weeks with a forearm strain. He has a 3.27 ERA in 33 innings this season, but that might not be enough to keep him on the Giants’ roster this winter.

Giants placed LHP Sam Hentges on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to August 27, with a left forearm strain.

No word yet on how long the Giants anticipate the 30-year-old southpaw to be sidelined for, but it could cost him the remainder of the season. Matt Wilkinson was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento to take his place on the club’s active roster.

Giants activated RHP Sam Hentges from the 15-day injured list.

Hentges has finally worked his way back from right knee and left shoulder surgeries that cost him the entire 2025 campaign. The Giants are hopeful that he can provide a major boost to a bullpen that has been a complete disaster this season.

Giants placed LHP Sam Hentges on the 15-day injured list following right knee and left shoulder surgery.

The Giants signed Hentges, who missed all of last season with the Guardians, in December thinking he’d be a participant in spring training but realizing there was a good chance he’d open up on the IL. He wasn’t able to get into any games, so it seems clear he’s at least a month away from helping out of the pen.

Sam Hentges (shoulder) will throw at least one more bullpen before facing hitters.

Hentges underwent surgery on his shoulder in the offseason, and isn’t ready for game action. The 29-year-old is a candidate to start the year on the injured list, but there’s enough time for the southpaw to get enough appearances to avoid that trip.

Giants signed LHP Sam Hentges to a one-year contract.

The deal, agreed to last week, was reported as being worth $1.4 million. A healthy Hentges is easily worth that, but he’s coming off shoulder surgery, which is why the Guardians non-tendered him despite his 2.93 ERA in 138 innings since the beginning of 2022. The Giants believe he’ll be ready to go at the start of spring training.

The Giants are signing Sam Hentges to a one-year, $1.4 million contract, a source told FanSided’s Robert Murray.

Hentges was non-tendered by the Guardians last week after missing last season due to shoulder surgery. Since debuting with Cleveland in 2021, he 29-year-old left-hander has a 4.18 ERA and a 223/74 K/BB in 206 2/3 innings, though that ERA drops to 2.93 if one throws out his rookie campaign.

Guardians non-tendered OF Will Brennan, LHP Sam Hentges and RHP Nic Enright.

All three players now free agents. Brennan underwent surgery to repair the UCL in his left elbow back in May, but should be ready to go early in the 2026 season. Both Hentges and Enright will likely see non-roster interest to help needy bullpens.

Guardians avoided arbitration with LHP Sam Hentges by agreeing to a one-year, $1.337 million contract.

The 28-year-old southpaw is expected to miss the entirety of the 2025 season while recovering from shoulder surgery. The Guardians hope that he’ll make it back stronger and better than ever to be a major contributor in their bullpen once again for the 2026 season.
