Mahle has struggled to miss opposing bats to begin the season on the mound, allowing a .351 batting average over his first two starts. After Friday's outing, the right-hander now has a 7.00 ERA and 1.78 WHIP to go with an 0-2 record across two starts and will look to bounce back for first-year manager Tony Vitello as part of a revamped back end of the rotation as the season continues.

Mahle's lone blemish resulted in a Ben Rice two-run double to give the Yankees a 2-0 lead in the top of the third inning. The right-hander arrived in the offseason after signing a one-year deal as part of a revamped San Francisco rotation behind Logan Webb and Robbie Ray. The 31-year-old posted a solid 2.18 ERA and 1.13 WHIP over 16 starts (6-4, 66 strikeouts) on the mound for the Texas Rangers during the 2025 season.

Tyler Mahle is scheduled to start on the mound for the third game of the season for the San Francisco Giants.

Mahle will close out the opening series against the New York Yankees for manager Tony Vitello. The right-hander joined the Giants in the offseason after posting a 2.18 ERA an 1.13 WHIP over 16 starts (6-4, 66 strikeouts) for the Texas Rangers during the 2025 season.

Mahle (illness) agreed to a one-year, $10 million deal with San Francisco over the winter. He made just 16 starts for Texas last season due to shoulder problems, though he concluded the campaign healthy.

An illness delayed Mahle's start to camp. He has now been cleared and will make his Cactus League debut on Saturday against Oakland.

Tyler Mahle has agreed to a one-year deal to join the San Francisco Giants' rotation in 2026. The physical has been completed and the deal is done according to Mark Feinsand.

Fantasy Impact

Mahle is coming off of an injury-plagued 2025 season with the Rangers, but pitched quite well when he was healthy. He pitched to a 1.64 ERA over the first two months of the season and finished the year with a 2.18 ERA in 16 starts (86.2 innings). Mahle was a 13-game winner for the Reds in 2021 and struck out 210 batters in 180 innings that season. His strikeout rate has been on a steady decline since 2020, but his career percentage of 24.1% over his nine seasons is still well above league average. Mahle is expected to fill out a back-of-the-rotation spot for the Giants.
