The San Francisco Giants were one of the first teams to name their Opening Day starter for the 2023 season, and in doing so surprised no one, handing Logan Webb that duty. With the Yankees on the schedule for the first series of the year, it’s as good a time as any to cover the first pitcher Aaron Judge and company will face in 2023.
Webb will face the club responsible for ensuring him this Opening Day opportunity. Not that the right-hander isn’t a worthy name to take the bump on the first game or the season, but the Yanks poaching away Carlos Rodón from San Francisco certainly had something to do with it.
