1 year agoThe San Francisco Giants remain in play to sign free-agent third baseman Matt Chapman. Now that outfielder Cody Bellinger has re-signed with the Chicago Cubs, more attention has turned to Chapman as the best available position player on the open market during spring training. MLB Network's Jon Morosi doesn't think there's a better fit out there than the Giants for Chapman. The Giants could use some more pop in their lineup, and Chapman has played under manager Bob Melvin before in Oakland. The 30-year-old is an elite defender at third base and .234/.327/.429 with 44 homers and 130 RBI in his two years in Toronto. Chapman hasn't been a health risk, but his 30% strikeout rate is concerning, and a move to a pitcher-friendly park in San Francisco wouldn't be great from a player that regressed at the plate as the season went on in 2023.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

6 months agoSan Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman continued his strong offensive second half in Monday's 6-3 win over the Diamondbacks. Chapman went 2-for-4 with a triple, a two-run, inside-the-park home run, three RBI, a walk, and two strikeouts. The 31-year-old hit a third-inning Eduardo Rodriguez fastball off the center-field wall, which ricocheted back into center field and allowed him to scamper around the bases for his 27th homer of the season. Chapman has put together an impressive second half after a lackluster first half, slashing .275/.354/.565 with 14 HR, 35 RBI, and six stolen bases in 200 at-bats. Chapman provided high-end power earlier in his career, and his second half has shown that he still has the ability to do so.--Connelly Doan - RotoBaller

6 months agoFirst baseman/outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr. and third baseman Matt Chapman each homered twice in the San Francisco Giants' 9-0 win over the Kansas City Royals on Saturday. The homers were the seventh and eighth for Wade Jr. and the 25th and 26th for Chapman. Both players knocked in two runs each. On the season, Wade Jr. is hitting .267 with eight home runs, 33 RBI, two stolen bases, and 44 runs scored. Chapman, who just signed a long-term extension to stay with the team, is hitting .249 with 26 home runs, 75 RBI, 15 stolen bases, and 95 runs scored. Wade Jr. and Chapman should be key components for the Giants next season.--Mike Carter - RotoBaller

6 months agoSan Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman is headed to the paternity list on Tuesday, and the Giants will recall infielder Casey Schmitt from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move to join the team in Baltimore for their series against the Orioles. There was hope that Chapman's child might come next week when the Giants are in Arizona, where Chapman lives. With Gold Glove third baseman now out for probably the next three days, Brett Wisely will shift to the hot corner on Tuesday and bat ninth against Orioles right-hander Albert Suarez. Fantasy managers should expect the 31-year-old Chapman to be back for the series opener on Friday in Kansas City against the Royals. Wisely, who is hitting just .229/.271/.333 with three homers in 231 at-bats this year, is a weak DFD sleeper option at the bottom of San Fran's batting order on Tuesday.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

7 months agoThe San Francisco Giants have signed third baseman Matt Chapman to a six-year, $151 million contract extension. The new contract replaces the old one in which Chapman could have opted out at the end of the season and test free agency. It will begin in 2025 and run through 2030, with no money being deferred and it also includes a no-trade clause. At age 31, Chapman is posting the best contact rate of his career (79.3%) which is leading to his lowest strikeout rate since 2019 (the last and only year he was an All-Star), amounting to a .247-22-69-90-13 line with a .337 wOBA and 118 wRC+. He's also played Gold Glove-caliber defense, which he's already won four times in the past.--Jarod Rupp - RotoBaller
