The Giants have quietly snuck into the playoff picture again. They are still out of the Wild Card race, but sit only two games behind the New York Mets for the third spot. The remainder of August's schedule is favorable for the Giants, so they need to take advantage of that before a tough September.

Webb hit a rough patch in the first part of July, but he has bounced back nicely over his last two starts. During that stretch, he has allowed just one earned run with 10 strikeouts in 14.2 innings.

Who it hot?

Canha continues to make a positive first impression with the club. The veteran bat has recorded eight hits and three RBI and 18 at-bats since being traded to San Francisco. This includes his sacrifice fly against his former team on Friday night.

Who are the SF Giants facing?

The Giants will be facing off against Brant Hurter. Hurter has made one career appearance in the majors. That came last week where he did not allow a run in three innings against the Kansas City Royals. It is likely that the Tigers deploy a bullpen game with Hurter handling a bulk of the innings.
