San Francisco

Giants

Roupp struck out five. The damage came on Pete Crow-Amstrong’s homer in the sixth, and Roupp was pulled from a 1-1 game shortly afterwards. It’s the seventh time in 13 starts that Roupp has allowed one or no runs, though the Giants are 5-8 when he pitches. He’ll carry a 4.00 ERA into a rematch with the Cubs next weekend.

Winn, who was given a one-run lead in the top of the ninth, cost himself a win by surrendering a game-tying homer to Pete Crow-Amstrong. The Giants previously used Caleb Kilian in the bottom of the sixth today, and he got one out there and then two more in the seventh. Winn probably didn’t hurt his stock much by giving up a homer to a red-hot hitter. It was just the second he’s allowed in 29 innings this season, and his ERA stands at 2.48. He has just one save to date, but he is a candidate for more, even if he’s possibility a little behind Kilian.

The Giants didn’t enjoy another offensive outburst today, but that might not have mattered to Gilbert much anyway. He started when the team scored 19 runs against the Rockies on Sunday, 12 runs against the Brewers on Thursday and 18 runs against the Cubs on Friday, but he went a combined 4-for-13 with one extra-base hit and one RBI in those games. He’s hitting .200/.238/.300 in 20 at-bats over the last seven days. The other eight Giants with at least 15 at-bats during that span have OPSs ranging from .821 (Casey Schmidt) to 1.298 (Willy Adames).

Borucki has been cut loose after going unclaimed on waivers following his removal from San Francisco’s bullpen mix earlier this week. The well-traveled 32-year-old southpaw posted an underwhelming 4.94 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 15/9 K/BB ratio across 23 2/3 innings for the Giants this season.

Chapman started with a grand slam off Edward Cabrera in the fourth inning, knocking a hanging curve just barely into the left-center nets at Wrigley for a 382-foot blast. He added a three-run shot off Ethan Roberts in the sixth, denting a sign in left field to keep it from heading out on to Waveland at 432 feet. His other RBI came on a sacrifice fly. This is an MLB-best RBI total for this season so far, topping Luke Raley’s seven against the White Sox on May 8. Chapman is starting to heat up (obviously), with a .309/.381/.564 line and three homers over his last 15 games. He’s still trying to recover from a frigid late April-early May stretch where he went hitless for seven games, but his .241 season average is now in line with what we’d generally expect from him going forward.

Adames absolutely clobbered a homer against Edward Cabrera in the first inning, sending a four-seamer 427 feet, out of Wrigley Field entirely. He added a second off Hoby Milner that landed about halfway up the bleachers in San Francisco’s seven-run sixth inning. Adames is now hitting .311/.362/.588 over his last 30 games with eight homers, enough to push his seasonal line to .250/.296/.460. He’s walking much less than usual, but otherwise this is about what you’d have expected from him through the first few months of the season.

Ray needed 97 pitches to get through five due to his command struggles -- he only had nine called strikes all game -- but luckily the Giants poured on enough runs that the outcome of the game was no longer in doubt when he was removed. Ray figures to be usable against the Nationals next week, though they have been feistier than preseason expectations might have had you believe.

He cleared waivers. The 30-year-old is just a depth piece for the Giants behind the plate, even after the Patrick Bailey trade.

Seymour is carrying a 4.04 ERA in nine starts and 11 overall appearances for the River Cats. There’s nothing special here, but Seymour could be a reasonable depth arm and may be asked to eat some innings over the weekend. It’s plausible that he could be cover if Landen Roupp (back) needs an early exit on Saturday.

Ramos allowed five earned runs in two games during his major league debut with the Giants. He heads down for a fresh arm for today’s matinee against the Cubs.
