Report: New York Giants 'looked into' Eagles TE Dallas Goedert
Could the New York Giants look to swing a trade for Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert?
However preposterous that may sound, ESPN's Jordan Raanan reports that it's something Giants general manager Joe Schoen has "looked into."
"I heard at one point they looked into Dallas Goedert," Raanan said on Giants After Dark. "He sounds like a guy who is going to get traded at some point in this draft.
"Now, I am not expecting Dallas Goedert to get traded to the Giants, but the fact that they checked in on it definitely made me scratch my head a little bit. . . It's something they are at least monitoring."
Raanan also noted that inquiring about Goedert isn't a reflection on what the Giants think of Theo Johnson.
"They do think highly of Theo Johnson. They think he can be a significant player," Raanan said. "Russell Wilson said he could be a star."
The Giants have poked around several tight ends during the pre-draft process and seem likely to add one at some point before minicamps gets underway.
Currently, their room consists of Johnson, Daniel Bellinger, Chris Manhertz, who was re-signed this offseason, and Greg Dulcich.

Mike Shildt gives blunt response after Padres swept by Dodgers
Mike Shildt gives blunt response after Padres swept by Dodgers originally appeared on The Sporting News The San Diego Padres went into last weekend's three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers with a one-game lead in the NL West, and they left down two games after being swept. San Diego had momentum heading into the series against the Dodgers after the Padres swept the San Francisco Giants, while Los Angeles was swept by their crosstown rival, the Los Angeles Angels. MORE:Padres star outfielder 'frustrated' with recent injury Moreover, the Padres made several moves before the MLB trade deadline, so they looked new compared to the last time they played the Dodgers earlier in the season. Nonetheless, it didn't matter. Were the Dodgers just better than the Padres? On Monday, Padres manager Mike Shildt was on MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM and shared his thoughts regarding the challenging series for his squad. "We just couldn't put it together as consistently as we needed to this past weekend over in LA," Shildt said. "Did get the [Ramon] Laureano homer against [Clayton] Kershaw — that was our only lead. After that, they got the lead back right away, 2-1. "We played from behind the whole way, got in the hole in games two and three, and dug out yesterday to tie it. But they got right back on top. Overall, it wasn't our best baseball. They played well — credit to them." San Diego will have an opportunity to lessen the gap and try to sweep the Dodgers themselves at home when Los Angeles visit Petco Park this weekend. Furthermore, it will be the last time that these two sides meet in the 2025 MLB season unless they cross paths in the postseason like they did last year.

Ramos, Devers, Flores homer to back Ray as the Giants beat the Padres 4-3
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Heliot Ramos, Rafael Devers and Wilmer Flores homered off Nestor Cortes in the first inning and the San Francisco Giants beat San Diego 4-3 on Monday night to hand the Padres their fourth straight loss. San Diego's Xander Bogaerts had a home run overturned due to fan interference leading off the second and manager Mike Shildt was ejected for coming out of the dugout to talk to the umpires. Giants lefty Robbie Ray (10-6) took a one-hit shutout into the seventh before the Padres pulled to 4-3 on third baseman Casey Schmitt's double error on Jose Iglesias' grounder and a two-out, two-run homer by left-handed pinch hitter Ryan O'Hearn that chased Ray. The Padres swept the Giants in San Francisco last week to take a one-game lead over Los Angeles in the NL West but were then swept at Dodger Stadium in a weekend series. Ramos hit a leadoff homer to left on a 2-1 count and Devers homered to right-center two pitches later. After Willy Adames grounded out and Schmitt doubled, Flores homered to left for a 4-0 lead. Bogaerts hit a fly ball to left field that appeared to bounce into and out of Ramos' glove and go over the fence as two fans, including one in a Giants shirt, reached for it. It appeared the ball might have grazed one of the fans' arms and after a lengthy review, the home run call was overturned and Bogaerts was called out. Ray, who lost to Cortes (1-2) and the Padres last Tuesday, allowed three unearned runs on three hits while striking out six and walking one. Key moment The Giants hit three homers in the span of five batters. Key stat Randy Rodríguez earned his fourth save. Up next Giants RHP Kai-Wei Teng (1-2, 9.90 ERA) and Padres RHP Nick Pivetta (12-4, 2.87) are scheduled to start Tuesday night. ___ AP MLB:
