Roupp’s Rise Powers Giants’ Surge | San Francisco Giants News

Landen Roupp is on fire, tossing seven shutout innings to lead the Giants to a 7-0 win and kick off the second half in style. With a career-high eight-inning gem against the Blue Jays already under his belt, Roupp is on pace to eclipse last year’s innings record and is clearly the team’s ace in the making. Manager Tony Vitello’s hands-off approach—letting Roupp pitch without unnecessary breaks—is paying off, as Roupp himself credits staying in rhythm for his success. Even though he skipped a start before the All-Star break (not for rest, but to give another pitcher a turn), he stayed sharp by playing catch with teammate Casey Schmitt in Santa Cruz. With both Roupp and Carson Whisenhunt likely to anchor the rotation, and potential trades looming, the Giants are stacking the deck for a deep playoff run—and Roupp is at the heart of it.
