Technically they lost 3 in a row at the end of June. the 4th loss was in July. #FactsMatter

If you like velo, Jordan Hicks is starting tomorrow night for the Redbirds (bullpen game). Last time I saw him pitch back in 2019 he was pumping 104 MPH.

The guys on the post-game said he still throws 101-103, so we'll be in for a show tomorrow night.

Giants outscored 30-8 during four-game losing streak SMH.

Tying run is......... in Sacramento.

McGee has to be getting close to losing his roster spot. Maybe he finds his FB again, but yikes.

Hey Kramer ... Nice to see one of the Old Names around here.
MyGuy™ is still here for you.

Love that you do that, Haak. Maybe you can send me the rules link and I can try and figure it out. Admittedly in depth knowledge of the Giants system isn’t necessarily my forte but it sounds fun.

This is The Tevister Amazing Ballot that is so easy to follow.
Just keep on the the question, "Who is going to make the biggest jump forward this year?"

It is easy. There is a drop down menu with the players on the team listed to chose from. There is a pitcher and fielder for each of the 4 teams. Minutes to complete. So what if you are making wild ass guesses because you don't know the players?

DL for McGee

Time for someone to drop a bowling ball on his foot.

I'll loan one of mine for that.

I wish I could take credit for that line. Those that have been here long enough know the genesis of that line came from FP Santangello when he was a host on KNBR back in 2011 to describe a way to get Barry Zito and Johnny Sanchez on the DL when they were struggling. (Zito and Sanchez were good Giants but it was a funny line.)

Busy week, haven’t kept up. When did Gregory Santos get here?!

Today:
05/05/22 San Francisco Giants designated RHP Tyler Beede for assignment.
05/05/22 San Francisco Giants activated RHP Zack Littell from the 10-day injured list.
05/05/22 San Francisco Giants recalled RHP Gregory Santos from Sacramento River Cats.
05/05/22 San Francisco Giants optioned 3B Kevin Padlo to Sacramento River Cats.

Thanks!

The Transactions page is very helpful, since the Giants make so many of them. Go to Roster, then Transactions. It's updated almost immediately after moves are made officially.

Today. You have scored only 3 less runs than the Giants in the last 3 games

Three runs in three games will not cut it.

Poor Slater, he can’t even crack this sorry ass lineup.

Slater is 9 for 25 over the last two weeks ... .360.

Not sure why he gets no starts. Maybe the DH has hurt him with the late inning match-ups he used to do so much?

He should. Ruf isn't doing anything.

What's McGee's contract situation?

This is his last guaranteed year. They have a team option for next year.

Right now: batting practice

Thanks for relaxing our nerves, I thought he was signed through next season.... I must be thinking of LaStella.

Thanks. We won't lose sleeper over the option. LOL

This week has sucked rotten peaches all-around. Baseball's supposed to distract me from the massive dumpster fire!

Yeah, my 401K took a beating today. This isn't helping.

Maybe this will help. Look at what happens when they deleverage the markets? https://themarket.ch/englis...

Track records are why those guys got those deals and nobody is panicking because they have all had one bad month. Declaring them all bad deals by May 5th is a tad premature.

And Bryant is on the IL (back injury).

We have three more games with the Redbirds.

Doesnt matter who they are playing right now. Can't hit, can't pitch despite a ludicrous 14 man staff.

I'd like to take a crack at Cincy.

May 27-29, in Cincinnati. Problem is, before then, series with Cards, Rockies, Padres, Mets.

Ouch! Time to do something Positive.

Select eight prospects in the Giants system that will have Break Out Seasons.
MyGuy2022™ Ballot: https://forms.gle/voqNp4uiF...

We only have 16 who have selected their MyGuys™.
Wouldn't it be nice to have 24?
"Be one of the missing eight to Select Eight."

Just now submitted mine!

Woohoo ... We are down to Six more to make that Beautiful number, 24.

I did so in the past hour so maybe down to seven?

Thanks but now I have to come up with a new promo slogan.
"Magnificent Seven ... "
I hope you do well as we overlap on several.

Yet another GIDP

Well, the Phillies blew a 7-run lead in the 9th to the Mets.

Why you keep scoring and the so called unwritten rule book is stupid.

Apparently, the NL West is not as weak as it was last year. The Dbacks are showing signs of being quite competitive as are the Rocks.

Farhan doesn’t look like such a genius last week or so.
