Giants Replacing Walker in Bullpen | San Francisco Giants News

The Giants are reshuffling their bullpen as Ryan Walker, once their closer, gets optioned to Triple-A for the third time this season after a rough year marked by a 7.16 ERA and shaky performances. In his place, newly acquired Joel Kuhnel steps in against the Mets, signaling the team’s ongoing quest for a reliable ninth-inning arm. With Walker arbitration-eligible and still having options, the Giants face a tough decision: risk a comeback or move on. Their bullpen woes have been a major factor in their season, and fixing it will be key as they head into the offseason.
