Giants plan to keep manager Bob Melvin through 2026 as team picks up option
Buster Posey, the team's president of baseball operations, called Melvin an "experienced leader" and one of baseball's "most well-respected managers."
"His leadership, preparation, and connection with our players have been invaluable, and we believe he's the right person to continue guiding this team forward," Posey said in a statement Tuesday.

Melvin is in the midst of his second season managing the club and his 22nd overall as a big-league manager, which included 11 years with the Oakland Athletics and two years with the San Diego Padres. He has also managed the Seattle Mariners and Arizona Diamondbacks.
"I'm grateful for the opportunity to continue leading this group," said Melvin. "I believe in what we're building here."
Melvin added, "We have a lot of unfinished business this year, and I'm looking forward to the work ahead."
Entering Tuesday, the Giants are 45-40, eight games back of the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League West and 1.5 games out of the last National League Wild Card spot.
While the team had a hot 19-12 start in April, the Giants have recently struggled. San Francisco has lost 11 out of the last 15 games despite acquiring slugger Rafael Devers from the Red Sox in a blockbuster trade last month.
In Melvin's first season as Giants manager, the team posted an 80-82 record.
Melvin is a three-time manager of the year, winning in 2007 with the Diamondbacks and 2012 and 2018 with the A's. He has 1,642 regular season wins, third most among active managers behind Terry Francona (1,994) and Bruce Bochy (2,212), who led the Giants to three World Series titles.

In August, Anderson, Sieke and Shannon will attend the 2025 Indigenous Media Conference in Albuquerque, New Mexico. 'As a young, Native American woman, I think representation in the media is very important," Sieke said. "My people have been storytellers for as long as we have walked the Earth.

Its EPS is expected to further grow 14.7% year-over-year to $2.73 in fiscal 2026. BKR has lagged behind the S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 13.2% rise over the past 52 weeks, with its shares up 10.7%. However, it has outperformed the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund's (XLE) 6.3% loss over the same time frame. BKR released its Q1 results on Apr. 22, and its shares plunged 6.4% in the following trading session. The company's adjusted EPS of $0.51 improved 18.6% from the year-ago quarter and outpaced the consensus estimates by 8.5%. Moreover, its adjusted EBITDA came in at $1 billion, representing a 10% increase from the same period last year. However, its top line performance was disappointing. Orders fell 1.3% year-over-year, resulting in only a slight increase in revenue to $6.4 billion, which missed the analyst estimates by 1.2%. A 7.5% drop in revenue from its oilfield services & equipment segment offset gains in its industrial & energy technology segment and impacted its overall top line performance. Wall Street analysts are highly optimistic about BKR's stock, with a "Strong Buy" rating overall. Among 22 analysts covering the stock, 17 recommend "Strong Buy," two suggest 'Moderate Buy,' and three indicate 'Hold.' The mean price target for BKR is $47.35, which indicates a 22.4% potential upside from the current levels.

Nonetheless, its EPS is expected to rebound in fiscal 2026 and grow by 14% year over year to $8.04. UPS has declined 23.2% over the past 52 weeks, considerably lagging behind both the S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 13.2% return and the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund's (XLI) 22.8% uptick over the same time frame. On Apr. 29, shares of UPS closed down marginally after its Q1 earnings release, despite delivering a better-than-expected performance. The company's revenue slightly declined year-over-year to $21.5 billion but exceeded the consensus estimates by 2.3%. Higher revenue from its U.S. domestic and international segments were offset by decline in its supply chain solutions segment sales. Meanwhile, its adjusted earnings of $1.49 per share improved 4.2% from the year-ago quarter, surpassing the analyst estimates by 3.5%. UPS' efforts to reconfigure its network and reduce costs across its business supported its profitability. Wall Street analysts are moderately optimistic about UPS' stock, with a "Moderate Buy" rating overall. Among 27 analysts covering the stock, 15 recommend "Strong Buy," one suggests a "Moderate Buy,' nine recommend 'Hold,' and two indicate 'Strong Sell' rating. The mean price target for UPS is $114.36, which indicates a 9.5% potential upside from the current levels.
