Logan

Webb

The star 23-year-old right-hander headlines a pitching staff that will also feature fellow starting pitchers Zack Wheeler, Matthew Boyd, Freddy Peralta, MacKenzie Gore, Chris Sale, Logan Webb, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Robbie Ray and Clayton Kershaw who was named as a legend pick by commissioner Rob Manfred. They’ll be joined by relievers Edwin Diaz, Jason Adam and Randy Rodriguez.

Webb did deal with a lot of traffic, as he gave up seven hits and three walks. He was able to strikeout six, however, and was able to wiggle off the hook for the overwhelming majority of the contest. Webb now has an 8-6 record on the season, but his 2.62 ERA and 133/27 K/BB ratio suggest he deserves better. His final start before a potential All-Star game nod will come against the Dodgers on Friday.

Webb allowed seven hits and one walk in a start that was far from terrible, but not up to his usual standards. One of those hits was a solo homer by Lourdes Gurriel, but he allowed just one other extra-base hit — a double by Alek Thomas. Webb still has an outstanding 2.61 ERA, but the inconsistent — at best — offense behind him gives him a 7-6 record on the season. He’ll be back at it Saturday against the Athletics in Sacramento.

Webb, who struck out six, allowed two runs or fewer in a fifth consecutive start, but it wasn’t quite enough tonight. Because the Giants offense still isn’t great, he’s gone 1-2 over six starts while allowing two runs over six or more innings. He’ll make his next start in Arizona against the Diamondbacks.

The Giants were trailing 1-0 when Webb threw his final pitch, but they finally scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh to put him in line for the win. Webb recorded the nine strikeouts with just eight missed swings on the day. He had 23 called strikes, giving him a 32 percent CSW. Webb moved to 7-5 with a 2.49 ERA. Next up for him is a home start against the Marlins.

Webb gave up just two hits on the game, and one of those was a solo homer to Teoscar Hernández in the seventh inning. He struck out four, and while he did issue three walks, it never felt like he wasn’t in control of the game. Webb now has a 2.58 ERA on the season, and probably doesn’t get enough hype for just how consistently good he is/has been. He should be able to put up similar numbers against the struggling Cleveland lineup next week.

Webb cruised through four shutout innings before giving up a solo homer to Michael Harris II to start the fifth inning. He then loaded the bases with no outs in the sixth and limited the Braves to just one run on a groundout before escaping the jam. Webb struck out ten batters for his fourth double-digit strikeout effort of the season. The 28-year-old right-hander will take a 2.58 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and a 101/17 K/BB ratio across 87 1/3 innings into a start against the Rockies in Colorado on Thursday.

Webb has been fantastic this year, but the run support behind him has not been. The Giants were unable to solve Stephen Kolek nor the San Diego bullpen while Webb was in the game, so he remains 5-5 on the season despite a 2.55 ERA. He scattered six hits while not issuing a walk, and he struck out seven. Webb has gone at least seven innings in four of his last five starts, and he stands a good chance of doing the same against Atlanta on Saturday.

Webb scattered seven hits and one walk on the evening. The Tigers scratched out single runs against him in each of the first three innings, including a solo shot off the bat of Wenceel Perez in the second. The 28-year-old right-hander generated a whopping 20 swings and misses on 104 pitches on the night — nine each on his changeup and sweeper — while posting a terrific CSW of 34 percent. Now 5-5 on the season, he’ll look to get back in the win column as he carries a 2.82 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and an 84/17 K/BB ratio (73 1/3 innings) into Monday’s matchup against the Padres.

Kansas City jumped all over Webb in the early stages of the contest with an onslaught of singles before Salvador Perez’s fourth-inning homer capped off the 10-hit barrage. He finished with five strikeouts and didn’t hand out a free pass, needing 77 pitches (54 strikes) to navigate four frames. It was a rare, abbreviated clunker for Webb, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in 10 of 11 starts to open the year. He’ll carry a strong 2.67 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 74/16 K/BB ratio across 67 1/3 innings (11 starts) into a road tilt on Tuesday against the Tigers.
