The Worst Team in Baseball
You know, the Giants really aren’t so bad if you don’t watch them. Yeah, I discovered this last night while not watching them. The Warriors were in cruise control and it was nice to watch a pro team I like perform professionally.
My current problem is the box score. I was checking the box score fairly regularly and that wasn’t nice or fun. So I might have to cut that out. The Cardinals game is probably gonna get rained out today. We need more games like that on our schedule.
The calendar has barely crept into May and I’m already sick of this team. The idea of trading Belt was floated at the end of the last thread. Yes please! I doubt he’d bring much but I am ready to blow this half-assed play up. Preferably starting with the front office. Three championships doesn’t give you free reign to lackadaisically smoke the most copious amounts of pole the rest of your careers.
Anyway, try to muster up an argument that this isn’t the worst team in baseball. You can’t. With this payroll that’s a fucking embarrassment.
Nevin had been better than Roberto.
Chuck, it figures they would go after their favorite whipping boy, Belt.
Fuck…I need a stiff drink!
Fuck . . . I need to start drinking.
Giants aren’t worth that, blade.
I’ll drink for you…
🙂
Color me shocked the Doghairs didn’t put it away in that inning.
Nonetheless, Giants flat smoke pole.
They can’t hit. Pen is a gas can mostly.
And, when they do finally do a conga, the coach won’t take a chance at sending with one down. Belt is pretty fast. If Posey was pissed at Nevin, we should be.
Belt walks to open the inning and pressure the pitcher; so no doubt it’s his fault Nevin didn’t send him.
Bochy’s MO is that Giants rarely try to force the defense to make a play — I don’t get that for a team that can’t score for shit…
I don’t buy what K and K are selling. What do they mean he didn’t get a good jump? I assume the runner (Belt) is watching his 3rd base coach, right? This is on Nevin.
Kruk: holding the runner was “predicated on the jump Belt got.” Except the replay showed Belt walking into a huge lead off second and breaking on contact. It would not have been close.
Anytime.Anywhere,The K&K show will roast Belt..
Did they bother to get on Nevin? Hell No!
I think Belt once ate Kuip’s post game Brat or something, and Kuip’s been pissed at him since…
I’m listening to KNBR online and Flemming immediately expressed surprise Nevin didn’t send him and has commented several times that Nevin will be scrutinized for that decision. Yet another example why I think Flemm is WAY better than Kuip and is my favorite Giant announcer. By far the most critical of our announcers—which I appreciate.
Agree that Nevin has been an upgrade and I did not see the play, but man you gotta send him right there.
I like Fleming a lot, too. Have ever since he broke in the the Gigantes…
The Kelbinator. Can someone hit an XBH?
The rag throw was up the 1st base line and they deflected that as well.,Fuck Boog Powell could of scored!!!
It wouldn’t have been cut off so it may have been a close play but they have to send him there. It wasn’t a bad throw. It was tailing toward the catcher. But again they have to send him.
Shit AK, our fattest, slowest Flapper with a skink on could have scored.
Very true Blade lol 😂
Specs had better stay.
He’s a damn good all around player, with good fundamentals, and a sense for the clutch. And, he’s fast as hell. But, he’s got options, so he needs to go down I suppose. You know, inventory…
Wow. Wendelstedt is on fucking glue.
The Giants have to cash in one of these times, dammit!
Oh good. We aren’t pinch hitting for Gorkys. Agent .007.
Gorkster!
Gorkys Comes Alive !
OMFG!!!! The double I was looking for!
Gorkys with an RBI?
Just bought himself another month up with the big club…
Oh fuck Tom, that gets him at least a couple of months..
😉
How ’bout that!
I was just going to reply to Unca’s .007 comment that he blows like Agent 99 (well, per Maxwell Smart).
Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess that means he’s leadoff till the all star break.
If the shift is on, this is when Belt should push it down the line…
Or, get a damn hit for an RBI !
But, goddammit. If Belt would fix his grip, he’d have gotten a double instead of just a single…
Yo Kuip – wtf ya have to say about Belt, now?
WTF? Nevin is on glue.
Holy fuck! What a catch!
That was a helluva catch.
That was a hell of a catch
Unca’s 9:49, yeah!
Gorky will have a plaque dedicated to him at the Phone Park . . . Well on his way to having a statue near Gaylord’s.
So, does Bochy bring Melancon out of cold storage to pitch the bottom of the inning? Need to get him thawing out, now…
Even on a RBI hit for insurance by Belt,
Kruk says that s a pitch he needs to hit more consistently!!🔥🔥🔥
RU serious Kat?
That is unreal.
Belt must have eaten more than just Kuip’s Brat…
3 run lead yes. 4 run no.
Oh for six for the kid.
Give him “a day”.
Gorkys has had “a month” since the opening series in Phoenix when he got 4 RBI in one game, to get his next 2. That rbi just then was #6…
I have all kinds of patience for the kid, Snarkk. He’s going to be a solid ballplayer.
TRADE BELT!
Giants might never score, but…
Hey, a contribution from Gorkys. I must be hallucinating.
Maybe I shouldn’t say anything yet, but this feels like the other team’s bullpen taking it in the ass for once this season.
Suck it Utley.
Crap. Utley is batting .104.
That’s DFA territory when the other second baseman gets back from injury. Whatever his name is…
Forsythe.
At least the Giants made one good move. They didn’t keep Jimmy Rollins thank god! But yet the Dogshit keep Utley around with his .110 avg and dropping..
grumblegrumblegrumble
Hershisher spouting shit about the Dodgers putting a dagger to the Giants season if they come back here. Man, I dislike that asshole.
He might be right.
That’s why I dislike him. Ha.
50,000? Looks more like 3,000 now.
Fuck me sideways.
Giants apparently never can get a no-drama save…
Can we ever make it easy??!
Great, their best player Seager.
Don’t give in to Seager. You don’t let the oppo’s best player beat you…
Fuck Yeah! Series win! Time for a celebratory burn! 🔥
I need a drink…a double!
Hoo haa hooo haa. Piece of cake. Jeebus.
Torture, Part Deaux…
Beat L.A.! Series win! 2-1 in May! Here we go Giants!
Unbelievable but true, a series win!!
Whew!
2nd month of the season. 2nd series win.
groundball to specs and game ova!
I know where Giants are, but beating LA still means a lot.
G’night all . . . Well earned rest.
Giant pitchers – 13 Ks, no BB. Diametric opposite from last night’s clusterfuck…it’s the Giant Way….
Miracle win.
I thought they were toast after that Nevin-no-send-Belt deal.
However they did it, a win over the Doghairs is a really good win.
Belt 1-2 with an RBI, plus 4 walks. Not to mention great play along foul line in 8th to get Puig at 1st.
OPS now .863.
Slacker.
Gnite Flappers…
Sleep tight girls…sweet dreams…
Glad to see Clint Zumiee! Cant believe Arroyo has same Rbi’s as Posey, and he had to get one tonight just to catch a guy here for a week. Regardless..a win vs Dodgers is a good win!
Yes indeed!
As a Giant fan there hasn’t been much to hang your hat on this year, but to beat your hated rivals, AND take the series, is FUCKING HUGE! Well, at least that’s my story, and I’m sticking to it…
Fuck dem bums!
That was huge, and I’m a true fan, I’ll stand by, I do bleed Orange.
