Webb (knee) will make a rehab start later in the week, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Webb hit the 15-day injured list May 9 due to right knee bursitis, but he continues to trend in the right direction. Assuming his rehab appearance goes as planned later this week, he should be ready to be activated from the IL shortly after, per Pavlovic.

Giants' Logan Webb: Trending towards minimum absence
Rotowire
Webb (knee) is on track to return to action after a minimum-length stay on the 15-day injured list, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Webb has been on the IL with right knee bursitis since giving up six runs to San Diego on May 5, but he appears to be trending towards returning to action when first eligible late next week. The right-hander has struggled to a 5.10 ERA and 1.40 WHIP with 27 strikeouts over 30 innings in his last five starts, and it's possible that the two-week break will allow him to hit the reset button mentally and return to form.

Giants' Logan Webb: Moved to injured list
Rotowire
The Giants placed Webb on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to right knee bursitis, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Webb experienced discomfort in his right knee during his most recent start Tuesday versus San Diego, and the star hurler has subsequently been diagnosed with bursitis. He'll need to miss at least a few turns through the rotation as a result, and Trevor McDonald was called up from the minors to take Webb's spot in San Francisco's rotation. Pavlovic notes that Webb has dealt with the knee issue previously and adds that the Giants expect their ace to be ready to return when eligible.

Giants' Logan Webb: Battling knee issue
Rotowire
Manager Tony Vitello said after Tuesday's loss to the Padres that Webb was dealing with knee discomfort during his start, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Vitello added that he doesn't believe Webb's knee will become a serious issue, but the team didn't want to risk his health after he had given up six earned runs and run his pitch count up to 62 through four innings. Assuming he'll be cleared to make his next start, the 29-year-old right-hander will carry a 5.06 ERA and 1.40 WHIP into a tough test next week against the Dodgers in Los Angeles.

Giants' Logan Webb: Let down by bullpen in no-decision
Rotowire
Webb allowed one run on seven hits and two walks while striking out six batters over seven innings in a no-decision against Philadelphia in the first game of a doubleheader Thursday.
He was excellent in his seven frames, giving up just one run on a first-inning Kyle Schwarber homer. Webb racked up 13 whiffs and finished with his fifth quality start through seven outings. However, the right-hander wasn't able to notch the victory, as closer Ryan Walker gave up two runs in the ninth frame to blow a save opportunity. Webb's numbers (4.30 ERA, 1.36 WHIP, 2.5 K/BB) haven't been as good this season as in years past, but he's still providing San Francisco with plenty of value by going deep into games, tallying at least six frames in each of his past six appearances. He's slated to make his next start at home versus San Diego.

Giants' Logan Webb: Phillies-Giants postponed
Rotowire
Webb and the Giants will not play against the Phillies on Wednesday after the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Wednesday's game will move to Thursday as part of a split doubleheader, but it's not yet known which game Webb will take the mound for. After surrendering six earned runs Opening Day, the 29-year-old right-hander has posted four quality starts over his last five outings, and over that span he has a 3.94 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 25:12 K:BB across 32 innings.

Giants' Logan Webb: Hard-luck loss in quality start
Rotowire
Webb (2-3) took the loss Thursday against the Dodgers, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks in seven innings. He struck out five.
The All-Star right-hander hardly deserved the loss Thursday, turning in his fourth quality start in his past five outings. Despite the consistent length he's provided, Webb has given up fewer than three runs on just one occasion so far this year. He'll be aiming for better run prevention in his next scheduled appearance in Philadelphia, where Webb will carry a shaky 4.86 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 32:13 K:BB through 37 frames in 2026.

Nationals' Daylen Lile: First home run of 2026
Rotowire
Lile went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored during the Nationals' 10-5 loss to the Giants on Friday.
It took until the 20th game of the regular season for Lile to go long, with his two-run home run off Logan Webb in the fourth inning reducing the Nationals' deficit to 8-3. Despite the lack of power, Lile has had success getting on base, reaching base safely in seven of his last eight outings. Over that eight-game span, he has gone 10-for-34 (.294) with one steal, three RBI and four runs scored.
Webb (2-2) earned the win against the Nationals on Friday, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out six across six innings.
Webb generated just five whiffs while tossing 64 strikes on 99 pitches, but he still logged six punchouts for the third time in five starts this season. He went out for the sixth inning looking to pick up his second quality start of 2026, but he gave up an RBI single to Jose Tena in what was still a relatively easy victory. Webb's 58.9 percent groundball rate is one of the best in the majors, and his 27 strikeouts (across 30 innings) are tied for sixth in the National League, though his 5.40 ERA is also tied for fourth worst in the NL among qualified starters. Webb's next start is slated for next week at home against the Dodgers.

Giants' Logan Webb: Allows four runs in loss
Rotowire
Webb (1-2) took the loss against the Orioles on Saturday, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks with six strikeouts over six innings.
Webb yielded runs in the second, third and fourth innings while generating 11 swinging strikes on 98 pitches. It's been an up-and-down opening to the campaign for the 29-year-old, who has two quality starts through four outings but owns a 5.25 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 21:9 K:BB overall across 24 innings. He'll try to rebound in a road matchup against the Nationals next weekend.

Giants' Logan Webb: Strong across seven innings Sunday
Rotowire
Webb didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Mets, allowing one run on seven hits and one walk with three strikeouts across seven innings.
Webb's only blemish was an RBI single allowed to Mark Vientos in the second inning. Webb scattered the seven hits but had a 2-1 lead when he left the game following the seventh inning. Keaton Winn and Erik Miller combined to allow four runs on five hits in the eighth inning to blow Webb's potential win. Webb will take his fourth turn through the rotation Saturday on the road against the Orioles. He has a 5.00 ERA and 15:6 K:BB across 18 innings.

Giants' Logan Webb: Rebounds in second start
Rotowire
Webb (1-1) earned the win over San Diego on Tuesday, tossing six innings during which he allowed three runs on three hits and four walks while striking out five batters.
After Webb gave up seven runs (six earned) over five innings in an Opening Day loss to the Yankees, Tuesday's quality start was much more in line with what Giants fans (and fantasy managers) have come to expect from the team's ace. Still, it was far from a flawless outing, as the right-hander issued four free passes -- as many as he yielded in any game last season. Webb handed out just one walk in his ugly first start, so his mild wildness against the Padres probably isn't cause for concern, especially given the overall outcome. He's tentatively slated to next take the mound at home against the Mets.

Giants' Logan Webb: Takes Opening Day loss
Rotowire
Webb (0-1) took the loss versus the Yankees on Wednesday, allowing seven runs (six earned) on nine hits and a walk while striking out seven over five innings.
Webb was roughed up for five runs in the second inning and gave up two more in the fifth before exiting the game. He threw 58 of 86 pitches for strikes, which was right in line with his workload in his last Cactus League start Thursday. The right-hander is a true workhorse for the Giants, having topped 200 innings in three straight years and 30 starts in each of the last four campaigns. He pitched to a 3.22 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 224:46 K:BB over 207 innings in 2025 and should continue to eat innings with strong ratios again this season. Webb is tentatively projected to make his second start of the year on the road at San Diego next week.

Giants' Logan Webb: Confirmed as Opening Day starter
Rotowire
Webb was announced as the Giants' starter for Opening Day against the Yankees on Wednesday, Jessica Kleinschmidt of Baseball America reports.
The 29-year-old righty is the obvious choice to start Opening Day, and he'll face off against lefty Max Fried in the first game of the 2026 MLB season Wednesday. Webb tallied a career-high 224 strikeouts last season with a 3.22 ERA and 1.24 WHIP while also tying a career best with 15 wins.

Giants' Logan Webb: Hit hard in spring outing
Rotowire
Webb allowed six earned runs on eight hits, including one home run, and one walk while striking out three across 4.1 innings in Thursday's 14-11 Cactus League win over the Rockies.
Webb returned to Cactus League action after joining Team USA for the World Baseball Classic, where he surrendered one earned run on five hits and one walk while striking out 11 in 8.2 innings over two outings. The right-hander was hit hard in his third Cactus League start, tossing 58 of his 86 pitches for strikes while giving up six more hits than he had over his previous two spring games combined. Webb, who is set to make his fifth consecutive Opening Day start for the Giants, is coming off a strong 2025 campaign in which he posted a 3.22 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 224:46 K:BB across 207 innings in 34 starts.

Giants' Logan Webb: Fans three Sunday
Rotowire
Webb picked up the win in Sunday's 9-1 Cactus League victory over the Padres, allowing one earned run on two hits while striking out three batters and hitting one in three innings.
Webb picked up his second win in as many spring starts, throwing 27 of his 38 pitches for strikes. He hit the first batter he faced, who later scored on an RBI single, though the right-hander powered through his final two innings and gave up just one more single. Webb will now join Team USA ahead of the World Baseball Classic. According to Maria Guardado of MLB.com, the 29-year-old tossed 15 extra pitches in the bullpen after exiting Sunday's game and expects to be available to throw 60-65 pitches in his first start for Team USA.

Giants' Logan Webb: Grabs win in finale
Rotowire
Webb (15-11) earned the win in Sunday's 4-0 victory over the Rockies, allowing just three hits over 5.1 scoreless innings. He struck out eight.
Webb was solid down the stretch, posting a 2.87 ERA in his last nine outings (53.1 innings). The right-hander wrapped up the season on a high note, as he matched a career high with his 15th win. Webb will finish another strong campaign with a 3.22 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and a career-best 224 strikeouts across 34 starts (207 innings).

Giants' Logan Webb: Picks up quality start
Rotowire
Webb allowed three runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings in a no-decision versus the Cardinals on Tuesday.
Webb was a little generous with baserunners, but he was able to avoid taking a third straight loss. The right-hander has had mixed results in September, allowing 17 runs (13 earned) over 28 innings across five starts. For the season, he was able to surpass the 200-inning mark for the third straight year (201.2) while posting a 14-11 record, 3.30 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 216:46 K:BB over 33 starts.

Giants' Logan Webb: Pitches well in Thursday's loss
Rotowire
Webb (14-11) allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and a walk while striking out five over seven innings, taking the loss Thursday versus the Dodgers.
Webb was a little more in control than Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto, but the Giants weren't able to give their ace enough run support to overcome his missteps in the sixth inning. This was still better than the six-run outing Webb had at home versus the Dodgers last Saturday. The 28-year-old is now at a 3.27 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 211:44 K:BB through 195.2 innings over 32 starts. He's projected for one more start this season in a home game versus the Cardinals, which will give him a chance to reach the 200-inning mark for the third straight season.

Giants' Logan Webb: Hit hard in loss
Rotowire
Webb (14-10) allowed six runs on 10 hits and two walks while striking out five over four-plus innings to take the loss versus the Dodgers on Saturday.
Webb matched his shortest start and highest number of runs allowed this season in this poor outing, ending a stretch of five games without a loss. The right-hander is now at a 3.34 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 206:43 K:BB through 188.2 innings across 31 starts. The Giants are in a wild-card race that could go down to the wire, so there shouldn't be any talk of Webb's season ending early as long as he stays healthy. He's tentatively projected to make his next start in a road rematch with the Dodgers next week.
