A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Play BAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on March 27, 2025

Sadly, I will be missing the first half of the game because of work. And, get this, I got the WRONG cable package from Xfinity so even though I live 25 miles south of the ballpark I can’t get the games on tv. There’s a decent chance I just turn Xfinity into internet since I already have all the streaming services and maybe just get the MLB package? I really don’t watch TV except sports. Maybe you guys can weigh in on what to do here since this is the first time I’ve had to get new internet/tv hook ups in 2 decades…..

Will catch the last half of the game on the radio or maybe a bar.

    Craig and I both insomniacs . . . Been chatting via text since 5am. Go GMen!

    I quit TV years ago . . . Xfinity internet suffices and play “bandit” on the web watching Giants, movies, other sports.

    Xfinity gave me an upgrade with a price break in return for a one year contact. Then mlb tv announced it’s eliminating local blackouts in SF. Everyone’s trying to control the stampede toward full stream ahead.

    I like this team. Rain ahead in Cincy over the weekend. Maybe they’ll move the Sat game to Fri? My son has opening day shade side club level seats for the home opener. Perfect.

    Had couple recent problems with XFinity but managed to get them fixed via visit to local office. Also bought new TV last year and tech guy was lot of help getting it set up and replaced old cables. Found them to be very helpful overall.

    Surprised a bit Giants sent two LHs McCray and Wisely back to Sac and kept RHs Schmitt and Koss as backup IFs. Sounds like new POBO already listening to Flap.

      Willie, I like the “feel good” story of Koss. He had long odds of making the roster, but good spring training play, along with Schmitt being injured – was the difference. My bigger wish though is that he “pushes” Fitz to play lights out 2nd base (which I think he will do, as 2nd base is more his natural position versus SS).

      Xoot – love the music/photo video! Your son is obviously a diehard fan. Great stuff!

    Nice to see the Flap return !

    I’m leaning optimistic. No more turnstile roster moves and dudes who play a couple games, never to be seen or heard from again. Team vibe looks vastly improved, with roster confusion minimized.

    Pitching looks like Top 10. Defense improved, maybe middle of the pack overall. First base challenged offensively and likely to be hurt a lot with Wade and Wilmer over there. Still lack of speed is a problem, so they need to hit more HRs than last year.

    85+ looks doable, and in the mix for a Wild Card.

    Let’s get this puppy started ! …

    Except for the last few years, I was always pumped up for the season opener. This year I’m feeling it again. Haven’t seen the team play in SF since opening day 2011 when they raised the first SF World Champ flag. I’m thinking I might have to get my ass out to the yard again sometime this year.

    Here we go Giants, here we go!

    Damn MLB TV app doesn’t appear to be working.

    Wilmer! Fuck yeah.

  13. Macdog's avatar Macdog said, on March 27, 2025 at 3:37 pm

    1-0!

  14. Locojuan's avatar Locojuan said, on March 27, 2025 at 3:37 pm

    When the Giants come to town, it’s bye bye baby.

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on March 27, 2025 at 3:42 pm

      Yeah I remember that one!

    New year same sucky Word Press…keep trying to log in…

  16. Giant Head's avatar Giant Head said, on March 27, 2025 at 3:41 pm

    finally let me in…tried posting this when we had runners on the corners…

    “well I was trying to type “Rally Time” when Word Press made me change my email…still taking credit!”

    • Giant Head's avatar Giant Head said, on March 27, 2025 at 3:43 pm

      great way to start the year. We were bummed out after planning on trying to see Bryce Eldridge at AA with the Flying Squirrels playing next weekend in Harrisburg to see him get sent to AAA…hopefully good sign of hat he is a big leaguer by the summer.

  17. snarkk's avatar snarkk said, on March 27, 2025 at 3:56 pm

    Great comeback. Proves early my point on needing the HRs this year. Green is a top pitcher, but 17 Ks? So much for hunting contact. Great opening day comeback vibe to start the season…

    Great to see the Flap back in action BF!!

    Only caught the game late but just in time for the Giants to rally down to their last out and Bailey comes thru followed by my man in the clutch Mr.Ed and his 3run HR!! Fuck yeah 162-0 lol 😂

    Hunter Greene looked great. Took it to the next level.

    yo I can’t post on my ph, I had to duck into a bar to catch the last couple of innings and I fought off a couple of negative texts from Loo and Diggity but at the end of the day we are 1-0 baby, fuck all the noise let’s just fuck with teams this year, yeah?

    • willedav's avatar willedav said, on March 27, 2025 at 5:46 pm

      Ha! Was looking for Loo’s Twilight Zone guy closing the door.

    Bailey hit the key! What a great way to start the year!
