Giants claim reliever Camilo Doval off waivers from Pirates

Summary

The San Francisco Giants claimed reliever Camilo Doval off waivers from the Pittsburgh Pirates on September 24, 2026. Doval, an All-Star closer in 2023, can tie the all-time record for players used in a season by appearing in one of the Giants' final three games. He has struggled this season with a 4.54 ERA, facing difficulties against left-handed hitters. To make room for Doval on the 40-man roster, the Giants moved Blade Tidwell to the 60-day injured list. The team is also considering the activation of catcher Zach Morgan before the season ends as they aim to determine their roster for 2027.
