A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Bochy, A Giant (Head) Among Men

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on October 16, 2023

It’s impossible to not be impressed with what Bochy has done in his first year managing the Rangers. Yes, he has good players. But to get to the point in the season you have to be pushing the right buttons and the results speak for themselves. I am obviously rooting for Philly as I got them at 14-1 before the post season started but I will greatly fear Boch should Philly meet Texas in the World Series.

    I commented back in the day before he “retired” that Boch looked worn down and there was chatter that he was a pretty decent drinker and I personally believe it slowed him down and possibly with his managerial abilities. He looked sluggish and worn down.often. He looks like a new man….reborn so good for him and good on him.

      He was not in good health when he left after 2019. He’s documented this, that he needed some joints replaced (multiple surgeries) and that necessitated a long rehab process. He wasn’t in any condition physically to manage. He talked about this when Rangers came to town earlier in the year.

        Was he sipping a pre-game Napa Cab during the interview?

    While I have very few feelings still about Dusty my feelings for Boch are still strong. 3 beauties will do that too you.

    Purdy having off day in bad weather vs. top ranked D is one thing, but howinell did Zach Wilson beat the Eagles?

    Jets defense is pretty good as well.

    Chapman still throwing fastball 98-100. Alvarez plants his second slider of inning in the seats, and Boch has the hook.

      that was almost a huge fuck up with the next guy throwing like 10 balls in a row

        Yeah. Then couple ball hit to warning track in 9th, but he got the save.
