Giants Sign RHP Tyler Mahle to One-Year Deal, Bolstering Rotation

Right-handed pitcher Tyler Mahle, 31, has officially signed a one-year free-agent contract with the San Francisco Giants, as confirmed by sources. The deal comes after Mahle's 2025 season with the Texas Rangers was limited to 16 starts and 86 2/3 innings due to a right shoulder strain, which sidelined him for over three months. Despite the injury, he posted an effective 2.18 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, 66 strikeouts, and 29 walks. Mahle has faced a string of injury-plagued campaigns, making just 24 starts over the past three years, including recovery from Tommy John surgery. The Giants, in need of rotation arms, are taking a worthwhile roll of the dice on the veteran.
