Trevor McDonald Falls Short of Major-League Roster
The San Francisco Giants have optioned right-handed pitching prospect Trevor McDonald to Triple-A Sacramento. McDonald was in the mix to earn a role on the Opening Day roster but eventually fell short in the competition. The right-hander logged 15 innings in San Francisco last season and was quite effective, posting a near-perfect 1.80 ERA and 1.00 WHIP. He struck out 14 hitters. He was deployed primarily as a starter but has also seen time operating out of the bullpen. He spent most of the 2025 season with Triple-A, where he logged 142 1/3 innings to the tune of a 5.31 ERA with a 1.45 WHIP. He struck out just 144 hitters while totaling a high 62 free passes. Managers should monitor his development with Triple-A, as he could have some streaming appeal if he earns spot starts in the majors later in the summer.
