With 5 starters hitting .160 or less the Giants are still 8 and 4. Not bad.

I’m really looking forward to this weekends dodger padre series. This is a big series as it is for the nl west. The padres need to take 2 of 3 or sweep the Dodgers to not fall too far behind in that division. The padres has always been the little brother to the Dodgers. Now I think it’s time for them to step up and say big brother step aside it’s little brothers time to schine

The Giants have found some really good players on the scrap heap. I really like Alex Dickerson. And Yastrzemski, Solano and Flores have been good finds as well as Gausman

Giants have an interesting squad. I think the pitching's going to be better. I also think Dubon's going to be a very solid player for you guys, I'm still not happy the Sox traded him for Thornburg. Missed out on a few good years from Shaw too, fuck that trade.

The Giants are solid. they had 4 starters tonight hitting below the Mendoza line but still scored 10 runs tonight through 8 innings. The pitching is better than expected and eventually the hitters will get it going. A lot more home runs this season than I expected

Giants only a game and a half back. If they could just figure out how to consistently hold 9th inning leads they could challenge the Dodgers.

Epic dodgers choke.... :thumb:
I'm having to readjust. For the past decade plus being down 7-1 in the 7th meant you turn off the game and forget it. I did step away but made it back to see the 9th inning and beyond.

So now 4 of the Dodgers' 7 losses are to the Padres, but we still sit in 3rd place. Long season though. I'm liking what I'm seeing.

Historically, a team down by 6 runs in the 7th has something like a 0.001% chance of winning

And for the Padres of the last 20 years, you were more likely to win the lottery at the same time you're struck by lightning.

Loving this series so far. Could be an incredible summer. Hope the Giants can keep pave and make it a three horse race.
