Keaton Winn - Page 5 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Placed on COVID-19 IL Winn was placed on the COVID-19 injured list Wednesday, retroactive to Sept. 19.

Impact He will be eligible to return on Sept. 26, but it's up in the air at this juncture as to whether he'll be cleared by then. Winn has pitched well in a swingman role for the Giants, holding a 3.89 ERA and 30:8 K:BB over 37 innings covering four starts and four relief appearances.

Impact All three runs Winn allowed scored on a third-inning, bases-clearing triple by Ezequiel Tovar. Though Winn has bounced between pitching as a traditional starter and a bulk reliever, his workload has been fairly consistent, as he's completed between four and six innings in seven of his eight appearances. The rookie right-hander has held his own in the majors thus far, posting a 3.89 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 30:8 K:BB over 37 frames.

Giants did what was required behind Keaton Winn, Mitch Haniger in sweep of Rockies This weekend the Giants couldn't spring back into favored status in this race. But they sure could've played their way out of it.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Strikes out nine in win Winn (1-2) allowed three runs on five hits and struck out nine without walking a batter over six innings to earn the win Sunday over the Rockies.

Impact Winn's last outing was last Sunday, in which he pitched five scoreless innings out of the bullpen. He got the start this time around and turned in a quality start, his second in seven appearances this season. The rookie right-hander has been effective so far with a 3.55 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 25:6 K:BB through 33 innings. It's unclear what his role will be going forward, though the Giants certainly have a need for solid starting efforts. If he remains in the rotation, his next outing would be a rematch with the Rockies in Colorado.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Will start Sunday Winn will start for the Giants on Sunday against the Rockies, Danny Emerman of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

Impact It had already been reported that Winn was pitching Sunday and now it's known that he'll start rather than be used in bulk relief. The rookie right-hander has collected a 3.33 ERA and 16:6 K:BB over 27 innings for the Giants this season.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to be featured Sunday Winn is likely to pitch Sunday against the Rockies, whether it's as a traditional starter or bulk reliever, Danny Emerman of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

Impact Giants manager Gabe Kapler has yet to make an official call on a starter yet, but Winn will be featured in some form. The rookie right-hander tossed five scoreless relief innings in his last appearance and holds a 3.33 ERA and 16:6 K:BB over 27 frames overall this season.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Fires five scoreless innings Winn allowed four hits and a walk over five scoreless innings in relief during Sunday's loss to the Padres.

Impact After Alex Cobb gave up four runs in three innings to begin the game, Winn handled the rest of the duties. It was Winn's first MLB appearance since July 4 and the first scoreless outing of his MLB career. He now owns a 3.33 ERA through 27 innings this season. Winn will likely continue eating bulk bullpen innings, though he could slide into the rotation if necessary.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from Sacramento Winn was recalled Friday from Triple-A Sacramento, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Winn returns to the Giants as an extra bullpen arm with rosters expanding from 26 to 28. The 25-year-old right-hander has posted a 4.09 ERA and 14:5 K:BB through his first 22 major-league innings this season.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back in action at Triple-A Winn (elbow) was reinstated from Triple-A Sacramento's 7-day injured list Saturday and gave up five earned runs on five hits and no walks while striking out three in 2.2 innings in...

Impact Winn was sidelined for just a month due to right elbow soreness. The right-hander made five appearances (two starts) with the Giants earlier in 2023 but will likely need to enjoy a sustained run of success at Sacramento before garnering another look with the big club.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Goes on IL at Triple-A Triple-A Sacramento placed Winn (elbow) on its 7-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Winn was deactivated after he experienced soreness in his right elbow coming out of his most recent outing with Sacramento on July 22. Fortunately for Winn, his follow-up tests revealed no structural damage to his elbow, but it's unclear if he'll be able to pitch again in 2023 while he recovers from the injury. Before he was optioned to Sacramento on July 6, Winn went 2-1 with a 4.09 ERA and 1.05 WHIP across 22 innings in five appearances (two starts) with the Giants.

AUGUST 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

No structural damage in elbow Winn's exam Saturday revealed no structural damage in his right elbow, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Impact Winn had been dealing with soreness in his elbow and made the trip to San Francisco to get looked at by a specialist. Luckily, no major problem was uncovered. Winn will now look to get back on the mound at Triple-A Sacramento as quickly as possible.

JULY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Battling elbow soreness Winn is dealing with soreness in his right elbow and will be examined by a specialist Saturday in San Francisco, Danny Emerman of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

Impact Winn holds a 4.09 ERA and 1.05 WHIP through 22 major-league innings, though he's surrendered six runs across 11 frames since being optioned to Triple-A Sacramento in early July. Losing Winn would put a dent in the Giants' organizational pitching depth, as he's been able to hold his own as both a starter and reliever for San Francisco.

JULY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Sacramento San Francisco optioned Winn to Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.

Impact Winn has posted a decent 4.09 ERA, 1.05 WHP and 14:5 K:BB in 22 major-league innings (two starts, three relief appearances) this season, but the Giants won't have a need again for the 25-year-old swingman until after the All-Star break.

JULY 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Goes four innings in start Winn (0-2) took the loss Tuesday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk over four innings in a 6-0 loss to the Mariners. He struck out two.

Impact After posting a quality start on 67 pitches in his first MLB start last week, Winn made his second appearance in the rotation Tuesday and threw 67 pitches once again but only lasted four frames. He was constantly under pressure by a Mariners offense that scored in each of the first three innings and surrendered a solo homer to Mike Ford in the third. Though Winn could stick around at the tail end of the Giants' rotation for another start or two with Anthony DeSclafani (shoulder fatigue) on the 15-day injured list, he remains an untrustworthy streaming option given his apparent pitch count.

JULY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Draws another start Winn is scheduled to start Tuesday's game versus the Mariners at Oracle Park.

Impact Winn will be making his second turn through the Giants rotation after impressing in his first MLB start last Thursday in Toronto. While facing off against a formidable offense on the road, Winn struck out three and allowed two earned runs and six baserunners over six innings in a losing effort. The right-hander draws a more favorable matchup this time around and could make sense as a streaming option while facing a Mariners offense that has struck out at a 26.1 percent clip -- the third-highest rate in the majors -- since June 1.

Keaton Winn's strong start and how the Giants can surprise at the trade deadline With so many pitchers who are at least starter-adjacent, the Giants might be able to embark on their most creative trade deadline yet.

JUNE 30, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Fares well in first MLB start Winn (0-1) took the loss against Toronto on Thursday, allowing two runs on three hits and one walk while striking out three batters over six innings.

Impact Winn pitched well in his first start as a big-leaguer, needing just 67 pitches to get through six frames. He kept the Blue Jays off the scoreboard through 5.2 innings before Vladimir Guerrero tagged him for a two-run, two-out homer in the sixth to break a scoreless tie. A lack of run support resulted in Winn taking the loss, but he certainly pitched well enough to earn another start. Should he be given that opportunity, he's tentatively lined up to face the Mariners at home his next time out.

Making first MLB start Winn will make his first major-league start for the Giants on Thursday in Toronto, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Winn's first three appearances in the big leagues have been in relief, although they've all lasted at least three innings. Nine of the 25-year-old's 12 outings at Triple-A Sacramento this season have come as a starter. That said, while this isn't an opener situation, Winn does figure to have a fairly limited workload Thursday consdering he threw just 44 pitches in his last appearance over the weekend.

JUNE 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Mixed results Saturday Winn allowed three runs on five hits and struck out three over three-plus innings versus the Diamondbacks on Saturday. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Winn left his bulk-relief assignment with a lead, but Sean Manaea couldn't maintain the lead in the fifth inning. This was the shortest of Winn's three appearances this season, and also the first in which he's given up multiple runs. He's pitched to a 3.75 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 9:3 K:BB over 12 innings while serving as a multi-inning reliever. The 25-year-old right-hander continues to be one of a handful of options to pitch behind openers as the Giants utilize bullpen days, though he could also end up back at Triple-A Sacramento once Ross Stripling (back) returns from the injured list.

JUNE 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tosses five innings in relief Winn did not factor in the decision against San Diego on Monday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out four batters over five innings.

Impact Winn was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday after Alex Cobb (oblique) landed on the injured list. Though Winn didn't start Monday, he gave San Francisco five efficient innings during which he tossed a modest 60 pitches (42 strikes). The right-hander served up a solo homer to Juan Soto on his first pitch but kept the Padres off the scoreboard thereafter. Winn will likely be unavailable for a few days following his lengthy outing Monday, but he could stick around as a long-relief option. He's given up just two runs over nine innings across two appearances in that role so far this season.

JUNE 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back in big leagues Winn was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact The 25-year-old was demoted to Sacramento on Wednesday but will quickly rejoin the major-league club with Alex Cobb (oblique) landing on the injured list. Winn made his big-league debut June 13 in St. Louis and earned a save after he allowed one run across four frames in a blowout victory.

JUNE 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A Winn was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Impact Winn registered a save in his first major-league appearance Tuesday in St. Louis, allowing one run over the final four innings of the Giants' 11-3 win. He wasn't going to be available to pitch for a few days, so the team has decided his roster spot is better utilized elsewhere.

JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Notches four-inning save Winn recorded his first career save in Tuesday's 11-3 win over the Cardinals, allowing one run on one hit and three walks over four innings while striking out two.

Impact Making his first career big-league appearance, Winn entered the game with the Giants ahead 6-2 and gave the rest of the bullpen a breather, tossing 55 pitches (30 strikes) to finish out the rout. Despite his successful debut, the 25-year-old right-hander could be shipped back to Triple-A Sacramento in favor of a fresh arm.
