A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Derby Day!

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on May 4, 2024

Thorpedo Anna was very very good to me in the Oaks yesterday. The Derby is wide open. Not even tossing out a pick. There are 7 horses I think who can win.

I saw the box score that we lost again. Pfffttttt……

    The only thing worse than watching the Giants right now is watching them on ESPN.

    Really gotta give a lot of credit to Taijuan Walker for shutting down this offense. I mean you really can’t give him enough credit.

    The win probability is still at 5%, Mac.

    Hjelle seems quicker to the plate these days. If so, may explain his burst of success.

    Win probability just went to Zero James ..

    The obvious DP was always in play to end the inning..

    More hard hit outs from Lee, and Hjelle looking nasty. Every game is filled with good signs.

    Now they’re interviewing the fan who missed the catch. I guess Conforto wasn’t available.

      ha! I doubt any of the Giants want the mic.

    I love those Thairo bombs to LF.

    If this winds up like Friday night’s close loss, two of the 3 Ls will have been fueled by inexcusable errors from Chapman and Ahmed.

    Slater HBP and Ahmed walk — Phils trying their damndest to blow this one, but as usual the Giants refuse such generosity.

    • James's avatar James said, on May 5, 2024 at 6:28 pm

      Walking Ahmed is truly ridiculous.

    As LJ said earlier, the hapless Chapman.

    • James's avatar James said, on May 5, 2024 at 6:48 pm

      If it had been a slider just off the plate, but no, one of those “mistakes” that major leaguers inevitably hit out of the park.

  11. James's avatar James said, on May 5, 2024 at 6:41 pm

    Slater with his 30 ABs? I’m ready to watch them crucify Chapman right now.

    WTF was that???

  13. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on May 5, 2024 at 6:55 pm

    Where has this guy been?!?

  14. djloo27's avatar djloo27 said, on May 5, 2024 at 6:56 pm

    Reetz cracker!

  15. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 5, 2024 at 6:59 pm

    A Reetz cracker was nice to see!

    That was smoked at 106 mph, looks like a Giants fan caught it so hopefully a deal can be reached for him with that HR..

  16. xoot's avatar xoot said, on May 5, 2024 at 6:59 pm

    I wonder if Reetz really can catch or if he knows how to use pitchcom. Looks better than Sabol so far. And Murphy.

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John said, on May 5, 2024 at 7:02 pm

      He certainly can’t be worse defensively than Murphy. I say let him play a few games in a row, see what he can do. They’re losing anyway, so why not? He smoked that fastball.

    Oh joy, it’s a wrap-around series. Another game against the Phillies tomorrow.

  18. James's avatar James said, on May 5, 2024 at 7:34 pm

    They scored 4 runs.

  19. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 said, on May 5, 2024 at 8:08 pm

    Above their season average of 3.8 runs a game! Could they get 5 tomorrow?

    Reetz Cracker 1-1 1HR 1Run,1 RBI BA.1000,OBA .1000 SLG .4000 OPS .5000

    Phillies Struck Out 17 times today simply incredible but still won not to incredible since it was the Giants..
