The Giants’ starting rotation has undergone something of a youth movement this week, with Hayden Birdsong and Kyle Harrison suddenly entering the fold after briefly serving as understudies in the bullpen.

Someone will have to pick up the offense when Wilmer Flores finally cools off, and the starting rotation is showing some holes.

There is one metric that could be the driving force behind a San Francisco Giants slugger struggling this year.

Being the fastest man in baseball doesn't mean a damn thing to San Francisco Giants catcher Patrick Bailey. The 25-year-old made the biggest play of the night Tuesday when he threw out Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr.

And now, Melvin’s list of options includes one more high-leverage reliever: Jordan Hicks, who struggled in his time as a starter but has a long track record as one of the game’s best short-burst pitchers, racking up 33 career saves and a 3.73 ERA out of the bullpen.

Landen Roupp pitched into the seventh inning, Jung Hoo Lee had two hits and scored two runs, and the San Francisco Giants beat Washington 4-0 on Friday night, ending the Nationals' five-game winning streak.

In addition to calling up Beck, the Giants announced that Kyle Harrison will take Verlander’s turn in the rotation on Saturday. That means that, after the Spring Training competition, Harrison, Hayden Birdsong, and Landen Roupp are all in the rotation now. Pretty exciting!

San Francisco Giants legend Buster Posey was completely dismissed from consideration for the best catcher of the past 25 years by the Athletic's MLB insider.
