Scouting Report: Logan Cerny

Summary

Logan Webb, the Giants' Opening Day starter and two-time All-Star, was placed on the 15-day injured list on May 9, 2026, due to right knee bursitis. Webb had been dealing with the knee issue for over a week but attempted to pitch through it, allowing 6 earned runs in 4 innings against the Padres on May 5 before being removed. This marks his first IL stint since July 2021. Webb has struggled significantly in 2026 with a 2-4 record, 5.06 ERA, and 1.396 WHIP through 8 starts. His absence snaps a streak of 156 consecutive starts. The injury may have been a contributing factor to his poor early-season performance, though some analysts question whether his best days may be behind him after three consecutive 200-inning seasons and participation in the World Baseball Classic.
