DEVELOPMENTS

Jared Oliva

Former Arizona outfielder Jared Oliva (wrist) started at designated hitter in a rehab assignment and went 2-for-2 with two stolen bases, a double, an RBI and a run in Triple-A Sacramento’s 6-4 loss to Reno on Saturday. Oliva underwent surgery in mid-April to address a left hamate bone fracture and began his rehab assignment with the Rivers Cats on Saturday after being transferred from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL in late April. The 30-year-old doubled in the third inning, hit a sacrifice fly in the fifth and singled in the seventh before stealing two bases and scoring. The outfielder earned a spot on the Giants’ Opening Day roster and is eligible to return to the big leagues in mid-June.

Kevin Stevens

Former Cienega right-hander Kevin Stevens was sent to the FCL Yankees on Saturday to begin his most recent rehab assignment. Stevens missed significant time after being placed on the 60-day injured list in March 2025 and subsequently spent time on the full-season injured list. Before his 2025 setbacks, Stevens was a standout reliever for the Double-A Somerset Patriots in 2024, posting a 2.66 ERA with 30 strikeouts across 20 1/3 innings before being shut down with an injury. In his rehab appearance on Saturday, he struck out the side and earned the win.
