Just tuned in to see #weaklink making sure the bullpen can't implode the game...

LOL after all the stuff the team has been doing wrong you still don't know the team's weak link(s)

There is a silver lining.

 

[shrksfn9192]

Which is more likely, that happening or Casilla getting a save again this year?

That's a tough one. Wouldn't think of betting on either of them.

Not for tzill, he prefers blown save losses to bad starts. Nothing wrong with that of course.

 

[shrksfn9192]

Still standing by my statement that Moore hasn't been a good pickup so far. Although he did, potentially, cost less that Smith.

What are you talking about? His ERA is still under 5.00.

How come the Dodgers don't have a starting pitcher implode this series? Oh yeah, because its against the Giants' offense. #weaksauce

OK now it's over.

Man, what do we do with Cain? You have to cut him loose don't you in 2017?

Knowing the Giants, they make room for him the entire season, with some stints on the disabled list (which, considering his last few seasons, will probably be legitimate), and ends the year in the bullpen. Then he rides off into the sunset of free agency.

I guess that's kind of what they did with Timmy in 2014, but man I just don't see how he gets a rotation spot.

Three way tie breaker for WC spot is, ahh, involved:

The three-team tiebreaker for NL wild card is a head-spinning exercise

I do wonder what the Giants do with the rotation this off season. Only locks, in my opinion, are Bumgarner, Cueto and Samardzija.

Read about it earlier today. Kinda want to see it happen, just for the whirlwind experience it would cause. However, the winner of all that probably wouldn't stand a chance to beat the Cubs.

Dude, Moore is a lock too. Be real, his body of work and what we gave up for him justify that. Will he make it to the end of 2017 in the rotation? Only if he earns it. But he's in at the start of the season.

No matter how the WC goes no one stands a chance vs the Cubs. Except, remember, they are horribly cursed.

Just remember, in front of every silver lining is a very dark cloud. Full of hail, and lightning, and the wrath of God kind of things.

Tough to go against the goat.

No matter how good it's been this year, even if they win 120 games, Cubs fans won't stop assuming they will fail until the final out of the WS

So in the slim chance we get to the Cubs, we'd be the underdog, AGAIN?
