  2. Ha! I know that Buffa dude. He gets it.
  3. Girardi is actually an intelligent person though. There’s no way he’s possibly as bad as Matheny.
  4. Mozeliak must be feeling the heat. Not really surprised, but still a little bit unexpected.
  5. He’s a decent athlete who’s getting better at the position but still occasionally misjudges a ball and has an above average arm that is pretty accurate. He’s fine out there just like most people who knew he was still learning to be an OF thought he would be.
  6. Almora is a "speedy lead off hitter" according to the Giants broadcasters I heard that and thought wow, these guys get paid to talk about baseball, huh.
  7. The quick hook in the playoffs mostly makes sense though If you want to run your bullpen into the ground, sure. It’s either that or guarantee a loss most nights the starter isn’t on, so yeah, you take your chances and hope the starter is better the next night.
  8. I would like to punch anyone who says that 30-20 isn’t 10 games above 500 right in their faces as well.
  9. Harold Reynolds just said he had a problem with Bryce Harper’s .219 batting average and then followed that up with “he’s making an out eight out of 10 times”. I’m at a loss for words about how stupid that statement is.
  10. I think the Giants and the Dodgers kinda get it after the 2016 playoffs. I will never forget him stealing home against the Dodgers. Maybe my favorite play of all time. Agreed. The absolute split second decision to deke like he was going back to the bag to draw the throw and immediately take off for home has to be the most ingenious play I've ever seen on a baseball field and he did it seamlessly.
  11. There are no force outs available in a walk situation, so this can't be right.
  12. I truly want to punch TheJosh in the face right now. Holy horsefeathers.
  13. Oooh, false equivalencies. I like those! You flip a coin 30 times, and it comes up heads 20 times and tails 10 times. For the next flip, someone offers you -150 for heads. Do you take it? Again, false equivalency. Coins and cards are not people with variable emotions and the like, especially on a day to day and week to week basis. If you're talking about a full season of blindly putting the guy in the leadoff spot, sure, I'll concede that point.
  14. Why? Until his BABIP regresses to the mean, keep him out there. You know when I play blackjack and double down and win I just keep doubling down every hand after until I bust Oooh, false equivalencies. I like those!
  15. I’d be surprised if Mo got sent packing but Matheny is a couple years overdue. I was of the opinion when Luhnow left that he was likely the brains behind the operation and it appears that was spot on.
  16. Mozeliak doesn't have the cajones to do that but I'd love to see it to. Actually, I wouldn't mind hearing the BFIBs bitch about coming in 2nd to someone for a star player again.
  17. Can confirm Rizzo is NOT a "super fake dickhole" in real life from multiple people who've met him. Where do you guys come up with these takes? Does anyone else want to speculate on which former players are dicks because there are some pretty obvious ones: Lackey, definitely. Z, I don't know, I just see him as a hyper competitive dude who got really pissed about losing and not performing well himself. I bet he's a pretty regular guy off the field.
  18. I don’t think it can be overemphasized that they haven’t fired on all cylinders and/or been healthy all season. They’re much better than they’ve played and as long as they don’t go on a pre ASB losing streak it wouldn’t surprise me to see a double digit lead on the division by September 1st.
  19. Man, Suarez is a whiny bitch. Also, terrible missed foul by the ref in like the 90th minute on Uruguay just outside their box.
  20. What are you talking about? That ball took a weird ass hop off the concrete at the base of the wall.
  21. This strike zone is hot garbage. Nice play by Bote.
