Game Thread: 04.30.18 Game #29

[SFGRTB]

Remember when we had a streak of something like 110 games in a row where we entered the 9th trailing without getting a win?

We already have 2 or 3 this year.

This has been a weird season

And doing this with a ton of injuries. If this team gets healthy they might be pretty good.

With the knowledge that Boch completely lost the clubhouse last year, I have more faith that this team may actually have some promise.

And tonight aside, this bully could be something special.

15-14!

With the horrid offensive start to the season and the injuries that have hit us, 15-14 is AMAZING!

And a lot better than last year: my sleepy math puts it at 9-15

2nd place in the NLW! LOL

But seriously the goal was play .500 till Bum gets back. That seems eminently doable and maybe better

And Cutch hasn’t shown up yet. And Mac got sidelined by injury (and a bonehead screwup by the front office which extended his down time by about 4 games).

Now we just have to hope KT or Hanson can grab the 2B job in Panik’s absence...

Giants are now 7-0 on the season with four walks or more in a game

And we won another scoring first.

Hey and risp not bad either!!!

This is OUR time, Mr Hand...

Well, YOU'RE here, and I'M here....

I think we all need to pump the breaks on this "if we get healthy" riff. I doubt we'll be healthy all year. When Bum, Melancon and Dozens come back, someone else will go down. It is the way of modern baseball.

And when he gets back we'll say "if only Belt didn't have a concussion" or "if only Cueto didn't have blisters" etc...

Injuries are a part of it and no team will be fully healthy at any point during the season.

Aaaaaannnnnddd

Cueto to the DL with elbow inflammation.

Man it sucks to be right.

Technically, you predicted blisters in your hypothetical. Not sure if you should get full points on that . . .
