ROSTER UNTOUCHABLES: The Giants' Short List as Trade Rumors Heat Up

ROSTER UNTOUCHABLES: The Giants' Short List as Trade Rumors Heat Up

June 10, 2026 · 32 min · Episode 1996

About this episode

The episode discusses the performance of Bryce Eldridge and Jung Hoo Lee, the implications of their play on the Giants' roster decisions, and who might be considered untouchable in potential trades.

The San Francisco Giants lost again, but for once the most interesting story wasn't the final score. Bryce Eldridge continues to look like a player opposing teams already respect, consistently being pitched to like a middle-of-the-order threat despite having only recently arrived in the big leagues. Meanwhile, Jung Hoo Lee is putting together one of the best stretches of his career, extending his hitting streak to 17 games while climbing near the top of the National League batting race. We break down Lee's historic run, why he looks increasingly likely to earn an All-Star selection, and what his long-term future with the Giants could look like. If Lee continues producing at this level, his contract opt-out after 2027 could become one of the most important decisions facing the organization. Plus, we tackle a fascinating question: who should actually be considered untouchable if the Giants decide to get aggressive in reshaping the roster? Bryce Eldridge, Landen Roupp, Jung Hoo Lee and a handful of others headline the discussion as the Giants continue searching for answers amid another disappointing stretch.
