Scouting Report
Updated May 20, 2026
Logan Webb, 29-year-old Giants ace and two-time All-Star, was placed on the 15-day injured list on May 9, 2026, due to right knee bursitis. This marks his first IL stint in five years (since July 2021 back injury). Webb exited his start against the Padres after just 4 innings on May 5, allowing 6 earned runs on 7 hits. He has been dealing with knee discomfort for an extended period but initially downplayed the injury. Webb is expected to return when eligible on May 21 with a minimum IL stay. However, his 2026 season has been significantly troubled, posting a 2-4 record with a 5.06 ERA and 1.396 WHIP across 8 starts. His performance represents a dramatic decline from back-to-back All-Star seasons (2024-2025) and his 2025 season where he led MLB with 224 strikeouts.
