5/28/25 | Former Giants Promising Young Star Lands Deal with New York Mets. The San Francisco Giants are seeing a former promising prospect head across the country to a hated National League rival. As first reported by Anthony DiComo of MLB.com, the New York Mets have agreed to a minor league deal with infielder David Villar. The 28-year-old was designated for assignment a couple of weeks ago after the Giants activated Casey Schmitt from the injured list. Since the 2022 season, Villar has played in 118 games for San Francisco and slashed .200/.292/.391 with 15 home runs and 41 RBI, his best year coming during 52 games in his rookie campaign.

5/19/25 | David Villar's time with SF Giants likely nearing an end after second DFA. Once heralded as the Giants' third baseman of the future, David Villar's time with the organization is likely coming to an end. Villar, 28, was designated for assignment Monday for the second time this season so that Casey Schmitt could be activated from the injured list. If he is not traded, Villar will have the opportunity to elect free agency rather than an assignment to Triple-A Sacramento. Manager Bob Melvin said it was “hard” to deliver the news, but move didn't come as a surprise to Villar, who was still at his locker when the home clubhouse opened to reporters before the Giants began a three-game set against the Kansas City Royals.

4/23/25 | Buster Posey's influence is evident is SF Giants' roster continuity. When David Villar was called into the Triple-A manager's office over the weekend, he had no reason to believe the message Dave Brundage was about to deliver. “My initial reaction was hey, maybe I'm getting moved, or maybe something else is happening, or it's just a check-in,” Villar said Tuesday, after the River Cats skipper told him to get to Anaheim to replace Casey Schmitt on the Giants' roster. Not only had Villar been designated for assignment weeks earlier, San Francisco had gone the first three-plus weeks of the regular season without calling down once to Triple-A Sacramento for reinforcements. In fact, the Giants hadn't made a single roster move from Opening Day until Saturday, when Schmitt was placed on the injured list with an oblique strain.
