Game Thread: 06/22/2017 Cained @ Caining

[Stokes1931]

Can we just call the game, get on a plane and go home? A night game, with a rain delay, on a getaway day? Crappy all the way around. And Morris can join Hill and GorKys on the Uber ride to Sacramento, or Fresno.

If/when Bum returns, I predict a phantom injury for Cain. His April was very good, but he has been dog meat since then.

April ERA 2.30

May ERA 6.40

June ERA 9.00

Bad, bad trend line.

Agree. Cain is officially done.

And I want Bum to assure the league he is still a stud so he has major value for an off-season trade.

That's right, I am now officially IN FAVOR of dealing Bum. We will not need an Ace for a few years, so let's deal him while he has insane value.

I doubt the Astros want anything to do with any of them.

Could send them to Bakersfield or High Desert.

When Morris goes bad, he REALLY goes bad. His game logs show he is actually quite effective. He just has a blow up every 5th or 6th outing.

 

[Stokes1931]

Any odds that the Giants don't get a base runner the rest of the game?

 

[calsnowskier]

Come on Cricky. Don't blow up in your cuppo...

 

[Stokes1931]

Might as well throw Crick in there to see what he can do. He cannot do any worse than Cain or Morris.

Oh, they are already on the plane...

Crick now has allowed 1 of 1 inherited runners to score. Welcome to the 2017 Giants bullpen, kid.

And on an 0-2 pitch.

???

Isn't still officially 1/3?

 

[calsnowskier]

Now calm down and get ready for your own inning...

 

[Stokes1931]

Crick gets the 3rd out of the inning! Participation trophies all around!

Stickler.

 

[calsnowskier]

Stickler.

I was legit asking. If a pitcher comes in with bases juiced, gives up a walk and is taken out, what does his IR line look like?

 

[calsnowskier]

If the current result stands, Cainer will get stuck with the loss.

Sure, he looked like hot garbage, but this game is in Morris, pure and simple.

 

[calsnowskier]

Posey winced on that swing...

 

[calsnowskier]

A clean inning for the kid. Congrats.

But, dude...

Your family is creepy af.

 

[calsnowskier]

2.1 innings of 1 hit ball in your cuppo.

Damn fine pitching, kid.

 

[Stokes1931]

Hill hitting .134

Cain hitting .130
