Javy-Bomb in NY, but the Nats are up 2-1.

 

Here's a shocker, KB out of the game for SF after 1 AB and a rain delay. He's played/started (and presumably finished) 19 of their 24 games since arriving in SF. So he's missed/come out of 5 games. Not bad. But the Giants have also had 3 off days. Seems like their big FA "get" is not in the lineup maybe as much as he could be. Guess some things never change

Another Javy-Bomb, Mets up 3-2.

 

And another "not in the lineup" for KB.

KB’s building a rep in the league as not an everyday player - whether it be for minor injuries or otherwise. It seems there is always something. Kinda tough for him to ask for a top tier contract - the market will make the decision for him

The man gets the poops, can't we just leave him alone?

This is already the highest WAR season of his career despite 200+ less PAs than his 2nd and 3rd best seasons

That only makes it kinda tough to ask? Interesting

I should’ve said “expect” instead

Javy going to war with Mets fans

 

 

 

The replies are fun

[The_Achiever]

Get their asses, Javy.

For what it's worth, I think the Giants have been over the top this year in getting their players a bunch of rest. Of the 138 hitters with a qualified number of ABs, Giants only have 2 (Crawford and Yas). So that's probably playing some part in his frequent off days.

darvish lit up again. era over 4

[UMFan83]

We're probably over hearing about these guys, but screw it I saw this and had to share. I call it: A Hour of Dongs.

 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Why no playoff shots?

[OleMissCub]

Why no playoff shots?

 

ya weird. they are at the very end in a quick compilation.

[UMFan83]

Javy's HR at 43:34 is hilarious, I completely forgot he hit the catcher in the head with his bat on the backswing and then apologized as the ball was heading towards the bleachers.

[We Got The Whole 9]

I only saw a couple of those in person but one I'll never forget is KB @ 16:20 because that's the night Jake no-hit the Doyers.

[Derwood]

Baez is completely broken
