Joke those joking Jokelanders....4-2 good guys.

Feels good to have some baseball back.

Looking forward to seeing some of the younger guys, hopefully (Luciano, Bart, Wilson etc.)

 

[calsnowskier]

Ok... gotta try to remember some of the old nics and create new ones for the new guys...

 

[calsnowskier]

I am excited for an exhibition game.

No Giants tv broadcast? Damn. It’s like we are playing the Padres...

I have Kruk and Kuip on my TV right now, do you have the A'ss broadcast?

 

[SFGRTB]

Care to take a guess on player A? Hint, it worked out pretty well for the Giants. Gausman is player B.

 

[calsnowskier]

Fake crowd noise is no bueno

On mlb, both feeds (home and away) are the As feed. Maybe I will try again...

I heard this mentioned on KNBR earlier today...

That sure would be a nice find

My guy Tyler Anderson pitching. Former Oregon Duck.

 

[SFGRTB]

It's funny seeing the players not knowing what to do with the ball. The catcher nearly throws the ball to 3rd after a strikeout, Pablo nearly throws the ball around the horn after a 5-3 putout. None of that this year.

 

[SFGRTB]

In the pregame show, Zaidi specifically name dropped Caleb Baragar as a young standout player.

His fastball is fairly impressive, 92-94 from the left side, but also high spin rate. He's mostly been a starter but it seems like the Giants may use him as a reliever. Lots of talk he could even break camp in the Pen.

We'll see him in the 4th inning tonight.

 

[calsnowskier]

We are all agreed...

if the Giants lose, it is Anderson’s fault?

 

[SFGRTB]

I'm done saying positive things about guys, never works.

Whiteside approves.

Good idea, Collin...

I watched the first four innings. Slater looked good, Panda looked good.

Otherwise, meh.
