Giants' Carson Whisenhunt Shows Progress, Likely Triple-A Bound

Giants pitcher Carson Whisenhunt is showing progress with his velocity in a 2026 scrimmage, though he's likely headed to Triple-A Sacramento as the 'first man up' for the big club's rotation. In his 2025 MLB debut, he made 5 starts, securing two wins, but posted a 4.6 BB/9 and 6.2 K/9. Despite this, he was named Pacific Coast League Pitcher of the Year. His 2025 season was cut short by a back sprain, and he continues to refine his development with a new coaching staff.
