Kevin Gausman to Tyler Rogers after the game, on how much his rising slider moves: "You're going to hit a lefty in the face one day, and the guy's probably going to swing at it. Which is crazy to think about."

so in love with Lamonte Wade Jr.? He’s a 29 year-old, career minor leaguer who’s coming off of (.207) season. He’s never hit 20 HRs. He���s never driven in 60 runs. He’s never stole 10 bases in a season. Sub par defender. I don’t get the fascination w/Wade.
Hot take: the Dodgers and Braves getting eliminated is actually evidence that the playoff format IS working. Why have wildcard spots if they’re just supposed to be elimination fodder?
The Giants are now 25-15 with a +49 run differential since May 2.
That's tied for the most wins in the Majors, and it's the best run differential in the National League.

To all who believed in and cheered on my son as he has lived out his dream, thank you for all the incredible memories. "IF IT HAS TO END I'm glad you have been our friend in the time of our lives." Fill the stadium Sunday with Giant fans!
Giants only had two players in the top 100: Brandon Belt at 87 and Brandon Crawford at 58. Lol. I can’t wait for this team of nobody’s to shut the league up again.
Screw it. Pay the man. If you get 3 years of ace material out of him, 2 years of middle of the rotation, and 2 years of “at least he’s better than ‘19-‘20 Johnny Cueto” then it was worth it.

Absolutely destroying the Dodgers bullpen is one thing. They’re the second worst in baseball by ERA. What happened tonight was something else. The Padres have the third best bullpen in baseball by ERA.
I told my oldest son he could stay up until Logan Webb came out of the game tonight. It’s 38 minutes after his bedtime and we just celebrated 8 innings of shutout ball together. Great outing

I think all Giants fans can agree that Yankees, Mets, and Padres fans talked the most smack this off-season to us. Someone should check-in on those teams.
LaMonte Wade Jr., who has publicly spoken out about racism as it still exists in baseball, hit a splasher while rocking a historic Negro league San Francisco Sea Lions jersey. Baseball, man.
Dodgers fans will try to convince you that they’re a homegrown team while the top of their lineup every single day is Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, and Trea Turner.
The Giants are missing:
- Brandon Belt
- Mike Yastrzemski
- LaMonte Wade Jr.
- Tommy La Stella
- Joc Pederson
- Dominic Leone
- Steven Duggar
- Zack Littell
- Alex Cobb
- Evan Longoria
- Anthony DeSclafani
They are missing almost half of a 26 man roster.
Opening Day 2024 Quick Takes:
👍🏼 Logan Webb
👍🏼 Michael Conforto
👍🏼 Nick Ahmed
👍🏼 Jung Hoo Lee
👍🏼 Matt Chapman defense
👎🏼 Bullpen (except for you, Erik)
Bailey’s reaction to throwing out one of the best players in baseball in a close game that is also the first rivalry matchup of his young career. And we thought Camilo had ice in his veins.
It’s 2017. The Giants just lost 98-games. Some troll from the future tells you, “Don’t worry, Bochy, Bumgarner, and Longoria will have a shot at a ring in 2023.”
Top five Giants who deserve to be All-Stars (in no particular order):
- LaMonte Wade Jr.
- Logan Webb (overdue)
- Tyler Rogers (overdue)
- Heliot Ramos
- Jordan Hicks
- CMC fumble
- Trent back-to-back drive killing penalties
- Greenlaw injury
- Punt return fumble
- Missed PAT
- Abandoning the run at the end of the OT drive
- Soft coverage and a poorly timed blitz in OT
This truly was a team loss.
Blake Sabol executed a perfect home team Manfred-runner-extra-innings-era sac bunt to manufacture the winning run and Yaz simply decided to hit an absolute tank into the cove. Unreal.
Shoutout to every Giant who was a part of that 9th inning rally. It took some really disciplined at bats to earn those runs. Special shoutout to Thairo Estrada who has had a rough season and is fresh off the IL. Game easily could’ve ended before the wild pitch in his AB.
Kapler was absolutely the fall guy for Farhan.
Then Farhan spent an offseason putting together a roster with more talent than the 2022 and 2023 teams, and it’s performing worse than both those teams.
Blaming Marvel for this is pretty ridiculous when there is such a clear date when the industry shifted so drastically: COVID. Every studio pushed their streaming service and normalized watching huge new releases from the comfort of your home.
marvel fucked up hollywoods entire perception of a successful release for like a decade straight. it used to be that movies would chill in theaters for months at a time, building a box office by word of mouth. Now if one doesn’t make god tier money out of the gate it’s a failure
Kevin Gausman is the one that got away. Carlos Rodón was a fun, bad boy rebound that scratched a particular itch, but you knew that he was never really serious about the relationship. Gausman was wifey material.
My oldest just got her tonsils out. Reading over this “recovery” diet she’s supposed to eat. Ice cream, popsicles, gummy bears and smoothies…. I mean what a life!!

When it’s time for a change, think SpeeDee Oil Change & Auto Service. You’re trusted oil change, tuneup, and smog experts.
Larry has complained for years about no one hitting for average anymore. Giants signed a defense wizard who hits for average and Larry complains about it. 🙄
Ugh! I really don’t like this signing by the

. Why?
-$19M per year for a slap hitter is a dramatic overpay.
-KBO pitchers’ avg fastball is 88mph, while MLB pitchers’ avg fastball is 94mph. MLB pitchers are going to consistently blow this guy away with hard stuff on his
Baseball is crazy. Boring ass game for 2.5 hours (actually, it was pretty stressful at times), and then BOOM 3-RUN WALK OFF HR!!! THIS IS THE BEST NIGHT EVER!!!
