Giants Baseball with Ben Kaspick brings data, insight, and personality together in a smart, independent show breaking down everything happening (and not happening) around the San Francisco Giants. Host Ben Kaspick, who covered the Giants professionally for more than six years at Locked On Giants, returns with deep analysis, sharp perspective, and a decade of podcasting experience.

In this episode, Ben recaps a busy and bizarre offseason stretch: Tony Vitello’s unprecedented jump from Tennessee to the Giants dugout, the delayed completion of the coaching staff, rumored hires like Jayce Tingler, Hunter Mense, Justin Meccage, and Frank Anderson, and the club’s push to modernize player development. He breaks down the Giants’ biggest needs for 2026, the early impact of Dylan Cease’s $210M deal on the pitching market, and why San Francisco must get aggressive in free agency and trades if they want to avoid mediocre season.

Ben also looks at roster crunches, out-of-options dilemmas, potential trades involving Marco Luciano or Luis Matos, and what league executives are saying about Japanese ace Tatsuya Imai, who multiple MLB insiders predict could land in San Francisco.

If you’re a Giants fan who wants smart analysis, front-office context, real roster insight, and zero fluff, you’re in the right place.
