Guess the Giants record in August

[LHG]

8-8

 

[calsnowskier]

9-8

The Giants are doing GREAT during this stretch, even though they are fielding their Sacto lineup.

 

[LHG]

Now 9-10 on the month. Hangman, the team has to go 10-0 the rest of the month buddy. Can we play the Nats tomorrow?

This has been a rough roadie so far, but we expected that coming in (going out?).

9-10 is AOK by me.

I'd love to see the team split this series against Pittsburgh and then give some pay back to the Cubs and Cardinals at home.

Hopefully, they can avoid getting swept in PIT. Bumgarner will have to carry the team tomorrow.

Maybe home run number 5?

That might be the only offense they get. Hope he plans to throw another CG shutout.

Didn't need the shutout, but HR provided anyway!

10-10, still hanging at .500 which is the measure of success for August...especially with all the injuries.

Hangman is SUPER optimistic about a streak coming...

 

[calsnowskier]

I actually like my 16-13 prediction right now.

We can split the weekend with the Bucs. (1-1)

We have 2 home sets against the Chubs and Cards. Optimistically, we should win both of those (granted, that is a stretch) (4-2)

We will beat the dogs in LA to close the month (1-0)

That is 6-3 to end the month, giving us a 16-13 month.

Granted, I think 15-14 is more likely, I feel good about my pick at this point.



And I would have taken a 15-14 at the beginning of the month without having to think about it.

My 15-14 (and Mays') looking good

 

[shrksfn9192]

10-11 now, hopefully they can keep it close to .500 by the end of Aug. They should have won at least one of these three 1-run losses on this trip.

 

[calsnowskier]

And just like that, Hangman is done.

RIP, friend. Too young. Too young.
