San Francisco Giants

Rafael Devers

DH

Devers has been dealing with hamstring tightness since late February and had been shut down from all baseball activities for a few days. The 29-year-old is on the brink of being cleared for game action, but it's uncertain exactly when he'll be back in the Giants' lineup. Regardless, it looks like Devers will have plenty of time to get into the swing of things before Opening Day.

Erik Miller

RP

Miller has yet to make his Cactus League debut this spring due to lower-back tightness, though he's progressing toward a return. The southpaw will aim to start the season at full strength after his 2025 campaign was cut short due to a left elbow injury. Over 36 relief appearances last season, Miller posted a 1.50 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 22:20 K:BB in 30 innings.

Joel Peguero

RP

Peguero began experiencing tightness in his left hamstring in mid-February but is progressing toward his Cactus League debut. The right-hander made 17 relief appearances for the Giants in 2025 after his contract was selected from Triple-A Sacramento in August, recording a 2.42 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 17:8 K:BB across 22.1 innings.

Reiver Sanmartin

RP

Sanmartin will get a fresh start out west after spending the last six seasons as part of the Reds organization. The left-hander, who turns 30 in April, appeared in one big-league game during the 2025 campaign. He tallied a 2.67 ERA, a 1.24 WHIP and a 55:18 K:BB across 67.1 innings for Triple-A Louisville.

Sam Hentges

RP

Hentges has been throwing off the mound since the beginning of Giants camp, but the club is being slow and steady with his progression following left shoulder surgery in September 2024 and arthroscopic right knee surgery in August 2025. The southpaw will likely face hitters at least a couple times before he's ready to pitch in games. The deliberate pace the Giants have Hentges on suggests they might put him on the injured list to begin the season.

Drew Gilbert

CF

Gilbert will take a seat for a second consecutive game, dodging a matchup against southpaw Kyle Freeland on Saturday. Jerar Encarnacion will draw the start in right field.
