Any predictions for Belt Free???

Chez3 was recalled today. Surkamp and Runzler coming Tuesday.

Why the heck isn't Crawford in there? Or Torres?

Bochy has these young kids, and he keeps with the same old tired players who haven't been able to hit for anything this season. (Not that Torres is any better than CRoss, but he's a lefty.)

Agreed that the season is not over, but it feels d@mn close.

Let's get this one, and see how it goes from here. Need Song to step up huge today.

No Belt predictions today

Typical 2-1 Giants Victory

A Giants' victory is anything but typical lately.

The Return of the Ross!

NICE!!!

If we do go down, let's go out fighting.

apropo GIF as well today GP, well played.

 

[msgkings322]

Well thats a good start!

It's so hard for me to get excited as I truly think we're toast, but we aren't mathematically eliminated yet so maybe the Dbags will have a Padres style collapse...maybe...

The Giants have got some control issues. Not to rag on the pitching staff, which is the least of our problems. But they do have two issues that need addressing.

1) They have allowed the 3rd most walks in the majors, trailing only the Cubs and Royals.

2) They have allowed 100 stolen bases, only 9 teams have allowed more. The pitchers need to do a better job of holding runners on. The good news in this scenario is that the Giants have caught runners 50 times, second only to Sandy Eggo at 51. Even so, the stolen base percentage is 66.7%, which is not good.

Addressing these issues, if possible, will make a stellar pitching staff that much better.

I'm not too hopeful either. But I think since I missed yesterday's debacle, my heart isn't as heavy.

 

[Stokes1931]

Kepp and Tron with two pitch outs. :panda: works a walk, though. Nice!

 

[Freeport 22]

Whats wrong with Pablo ?

Thats 4 pitches he didn't swing at

1. Yes, a problem, but maybe helped by trading Chez this offseason.

2. Whiteside's fault. Posey back next year.

Huff wearing the high socks today?
