The fan, visibly animated, mirrored Alvarado's pacing and focus in the stands.

Giants' comeback habit stalls against Padres' bullpen buzzsaw in series-opening 7-4 loss. LaMonte Wade Jr. reached out across the plate and made solid contact with a slider that would have been ball three, lining it down the left field line. As two Giants started racing home, San Diego Padres catcher Elias Diaz dropped his head and smacked the dirt with his fist. For San Francisco, it was a familiar scene. The only bullpen better than San Francisco's is San Diego's, and while the Giants did threaten when right-hander Nick Pivetta initially exited the game, they went down in order in the final three innings, striking out four times.

German Marquez (P - COL)
4/29/25 8:21 PM -
Rockies' nightmare start, worst ever among National League teams in modern era, keeps spiraling. Colorado lost its eighth straight game on Tuesday at Coors Field, an 8-2 defeat to the Braves that was never in doubt. German Marquez, who's yet to regain his All-Star form, was hit hard for seven runs in five-plus innings. Firing hitting coach Hensley Meulens and replacing him with Rocktober boss Clint Hurdle has done nothing to reverse the course of a club that is currently tracking toward the most abysmal record in baseball history. The Rockies, owners of an MLB-worst minus-78 run differential, are already 15.5 games back of the first-place Dodgers in the NL West and it's not even May. Coming off consecutive 100-loss seasons, Colorado is on an early pace to surpass the futility of the 2024 White Sox, who set a modern-era record with 121 losses.

Dodgers' bullpen has been tasked with a lot of heavy lifting so far. An already taxed Dodgers bullpen was asked to handle nine more innings on Tuesday night, adding to its workload as the busiest in the major leagues this season. Officially, the innings put in by left-hander Jack Dreyer will count in their total for the team's starters since the rookie “opened” the game on the mound. Add that to the busy postseason the Dodgers' relievers had in October and the level of concern is rising for what has proven to be a dependable group of pitchers. “When you start talking about World Series stuff, or going into the World Series, guys did some really heavy lifting,” pitching coach Mark Prior said.

How Ex-Red Sox Alex Verdugo Has Performed Since Call-Up. Former Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo has been making the most of his latest big league opportunity, now as a member of the Atlanta Braves. Verdugo spent most of free agency with cricket-silent interest generated after the 28-year-old's one-year run with the New York Yankees. Minimal traction took off with the Kansas City Royals and Pittsburgh Pirates linked to Verdugo, which allowed the Braves to swoop in and take a flier on a one-year minor league contract with Verdugo. There wasn't an immediate opening on the big league roster, but the timing proved to be perfect once Atlanta hit panic mode with 2024 All-Star Jurickson Profar.

Recently, the Japanese pitcher threw his first bullpen session since being sidelined and has reportedly been ramping up since then, according to MLB.com's Padres reporter AJ Cassavell. The next step for Darvish will be to face live hitters during a few minor league starts, though it may still take some time before he does so, depending on his progress and the urgency of the Padres' plans, he could be ramped up for a late May or early June return.

Cardinals' Helsley emerges as trade target for three teams. Ryan Helsley trade talk has been abundant since last off-season, and it's only starting to heat up in 2025. The St. Louis Cardinals closer is in the final year of his contract, and given the team's stance and play, Helsley could be a candidate for St. Louis to unload in exchange for prospects or more affordable bullpen help. According to MLB Trade Rumors, the Arizona Diamondbacks and Philadelphia Phillies have shown interest in Helsley, citing a report from USA Today baseball writer Bob Nightengale.
