Steam Rolllllllllin’
Didn’t see it but the box score looks real real nice. And JV finally tied Hubie Doobie for 1 win each this year.
I guess there’s some things you miss if you don’t actually watch the game. To wit:

You ask me if there’ll come a time
When I grow tired of you,
Devers my love, Devers my Love…
Can’t get shit like that from just reading the box scores.
Golf all day after the drugs kick in. Later.
A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball 
I feel like that was the first time we really got to see Rafa being Rafa…. He’ll be a puzzle sometimes, but he’s going to be very fun to watch.
DJ with the deep pull.
I think your musical knowledge puts your baseball knowledge to shame.
Sometimes you’re better off missing them…
To divide the cockeyed world in two
Throw your pride to one side, it’s the least you can do
Great oldie, but honestly had to google the lyrics. I’m not all that good…
Hulk Hogan gone at 71…
Wow. Got into WWF for about half an hour during his heyday.
They Live with Rowdy Roddy is still one of my fave sci-fi movies.
Hey, don’t sell yourself short, DJ. You’re a tremendous slouch.
Ed King of Lynyrd Skynyrd fame on that song.
Mets/Pirates home, then Mets/Pirates away?
What drugs, Flavor? I keep trying different gummies and they all suck. Sorry if I’m repeatlng myself. All they do is make me want to wash my face with very hot soap and water…
I’ve found Kiva Lost Farm sativa strain gummies to be ok. One usually makes me sociable. Two or three, mildly stoned. In the classic sense.
Thank you Xoot. Did you experiment much? That’s what I find so baffling. They all seem to hit me the same way regardless…
yeah since the Calif law changed seven years back I’ve tried quite a few brands. Solventless, live resin, etc. also pre-rolls and vapes. Not what you’d call a heavy user though. Certainly no expert.
Verlander throwing 5 shutout innings, Devers coming alive, and Adames with a new plateau brings Buster’s WAR up to 2.1 . . . Just needs to get it into the 5-6 range by October.
Meat puppets song, but I like this version. Curt Kirdwood playing the acoustic with a quarter is a great sound.
See what Preller and SD do at deadline. They actually score fewer runs and have lower OPS than Giants. SF will have 7 games with them next month when Giants have very challenging schedule.
Malcolm Jamal Warner, Ozzy, Hulkster, and now Chuck Mangione. What a week…
I saw a flag at half staff outside a city gov building today. For whom? Maybe it was just the overload.
i just take a couple of prescription Advil before I play and I’m good to go
19th hole was my go too before and especially after my round…
Eldridge won game for Sac with solo walk off bomb. Fitz homered too.
I smoke still, my daughter’s boyfriend worked with guys that set up legal farms. And I only smoke before bedtime. Best natural sleep aide that I know about.
Well you’re better rested than me, but I bet my face is cleaner…
😂😂😂
Same here. Edibles have never done anything for me. Guess I’m old school, but I find the process of smoking a nice doob in late evening to be an important part of the high….
a full doob of the flower for sale at my local dispensary would probably put me in a coma.
Yeah, a good doob can last a few days….
I guess the industrial jobs of my youth messed up my lungs. Doobs aren’t real good for me. Is weed legal in Vietnam?
No, not legal, they even recently made vaping illegal, but the gov’t isn’t too interested in casual recreational users, they just go after the sellers. Actually the good stuff I get here is kush imported from the US. Wouldn’t be surprised if that dries up at some point, then it’s back to the local leafy stuff….
Water pipe for me, 😝
AZ, 4 back of SF is officially selling…
Apparently. They do have a couple players that we could use, just wonder if they would trade within the division….
Orioles definitely selling as well I’ve heard rumors of Catcher Adley Rustuman (sp) possible available in a Giants blockbuster trade..Switch Hitter like Bailey but a lot more power.
C is certainly an area that could be improved, as much as I like Bailey. Even bringing on a co-catcher.
Barry is 61 today and I bet he could still be a decent DH. Eligible for SS in one more year…
Barry should wait to collect. Always better to wait a while so he can get the higher payouts. That is, if there will be any left the next couple of years since we have to make sure Elon has his taxes cut so he can support his 14 kids…
I’m firmly in the take it from day one camp – so many factors and the biggest one is unknown…
Yep, I signed up at 63, so glad I didn’t wait.
O’Hearn. 1st/OFer.
Chuck..There not going to go after O’Hearn they have plenty of 1B options now with Devers playing over there with Flores,some,Smith ,hell even Tequila Shots Jerar 1B/OF depth..
Their going after a C,Back in SP,Outfielder depth with speedLH reliever with Miller out,and who knows an experienced 2B (Lowe) if their not totally sold on Schmitt.. Yeah their not going to fill the whole list for sure, but Posey is aggressive after after the Devers deal and FO (Greggie) seems to want to shake that :”We just want to break even FUBAR” so their all in buyers among the plenty of Sellers’
D-Backs just made a move sending 1B Josh Naylor to Mariners for prospects (Mariners had no production out of Raley&are own good Giant Donnie Barrels Solano so good move for then.Let the Trades begin early and till the deadline..
O’Hearn’s an OFer.
PS, get the shingles vaccine. It is a major fucking nightmare.
Yes, and before Make Measles Great Again effs with the vaccine.
No shit.
Guy is looney tunes. Measles outbreaks in southwest, vaccines for school kids hit new low. wtf?
Nothing like putting the health care system in the hands of an ex-junkie who’s brain was partially eaten by a worm.
My doctor only wants to talk baseball with me…
Hey, that’s GOOD news. Better than ‘turn your head and cough’.
Mine is a really good trumpet player, so we talk music a lot. My local orthopedic guy is here because he’s a surfer.
Yeah I got the shingles shots done pain in the ass you have to get 2 shots the second one 3 months apart that one felt longer to get over the soreness.I hate shots!Had a buddy once that had shingles wtf his whole face arms were scaling red with bumps he was miserable..
He was a driver picking up lumber from my company and I said Dennis your shingle mold order is ready he wasn’t to thrilled with my joke 😆
I guess I’m lucky as it is only on my upper chest and neck. Still, it burns and itches like mad. GOing through hydrocortisone by the bucket.
@BF: K Desormeaux on fav #3 in $150 K Fleet Treat at Del Mar today, race #7.
Roup to the IL … hmm, now what? No Birdy, Harrison gone .. #4, #5 ??
Luckily, we know how to reach Skip Pitlock. Anyone got Phil Nastu’s contact info?
No surprise, huh? he’s at 101 IP. That’s been a full season for him a couple of times. Whisenhunt’s at the same threshold. With rest they may both help — later.
Remember when Sabean picked up three WSox pitchers in July? Buster was just ten years old at the time. But I bet he’s heard about it.
What’s never remembered is that Alvarez and Darwin weren’t very good for SF.
true. Still, success followed the trade. Although we all probably remember the Brian Johnson HR game more clearly than we recall the series with the Marlins.
and we do need more than one new arm now.
Yeah, very unfortunate if it’s more than a passing thing. Hernandez was also terrible against Florida. And no one ever brings up Keith Foulke, who, though no Wheeler, had an excellent run.
Foulke did have an excellent career thereafter. I remember him with Oakland. Not so much with the soxes.
my son says our Korean hotshot pitcher will be up from sac to pitch this weekend. I can’t find confirmation. Not sure how much of a hotshot he is, either.
Roupp Dee noooooooooooo
Come on Beck back
Back on the bus Gus.
Do the Niners and the Giants have the same ineffective training staff?
Day 3 of practice and we lost another player to a hammy pull. Renardo Green.
Yeah, “might need another SP at the deadline” has become “definitely need”, and maybe even 2. Not optimistic if the team must rely on the likes of Tristan Beck. Like someone said, really too bad the Carsons aren’t quite ready yet…
Is Rafa playing 1B tonight??
Yes, Wilmer DH.
Rafa is thinking “Why is the Bay Area the only place on Earth not enjoying global warming right now?”
None of it will matter if Webb continues to suck.
And allowing the easy SB costs him a run.
Smoked line drive by Devers.
If Holmes can be a successful starter, how the hell did Hicks flop?
Appreciate Krukow describing Lindor beating a good pitch … actually, I could give a fuck about that, it’s just another run given up by Webb, who’s been subpar a few starts in a row now.
Holmes looks and pitches just like Hjelle. Pound this fucking piece of shit!
Devers with the pick! Love the small victories.
Our third rate Ace.
Yes, Webb not sharp lately. What’s up with that? His pitches do seem more up in the zone lately.
It’s Webb the one getting pounded geez 6-1 and the Mets are running wild off him with 3 steals! Not on Bailey he made good throws but Webb giving him no time holding runners on..
Singles are now doubles vs. Webb.
Clay Hjelle’s at a Jonathan Sanchez number of pitches with no one out in the 5th, and this is what we get.
Back to not hitting with RISP! Sad
0-8 RISP.
How about this line by A’s Nick Kurtz 6-6 6 runs scored on 4HR’s and a double with 8RBI’s!!
My lord that young kid is going to be special, raised his Avg to .305 and now has 59 RBI’s this season.No problem for him knockin RISP mostly himself in a 15-3 clobbering of the Astros..
And you just know that Eldridge isn’t going to be nearly as good.
Everything is awful – trust me
Yes, I do!!
Fun game for the bored:
Read a post and try to guess who wrote it…
A weak inning of “work” for Doval is just the touch this game needed. Giants have problems. Many of them.
The 93 mph fastballs looked like a fuck you to Melvin.
Probably was. Think he’s above it?
Not at all.
Man, fun happy team to unwatchable nightmare day in and day out.
If the pitching goes, we’ll be behind AZ soon. And they are selling.
Fuck the fan base. Make a business decision…
It’s so nice to have Dean and BassBaldy commenting here on a regular basis…
Much as I’ll always love SanDawg, Koko, Chi and others they abandoned us…
WTF else is so important? Playing golf? Doting on your grandchildren? I guess we all do whatever suits us…
I went to a minor league Single A game tonight. The pitch clock really makes games zip along. That’s a very nice thing. The game was entertaining.
When I spend 2 hours traveling each way to and from Citifield or Yankee stadium I’m in no rush to leave…
