I know this is a Niners blog but holy fuck. Instead of being 15-16, the Giants fell to 13-18 by gagging away 2 games in Philly yesterday. Ryan Walker blew the 1st game by giving up 2 in the 9th and one of our no-name relievers gave away the 2nd one. I need to see how they fucked that one up as I was out to dinner, but it sounded bad as we had a shot to go ahead and Windy Hoo was held up from scoring, and we gave up the winner in the 10th.
This Giants team is hard to watch as of now as they either can’t hit or can’t pitch. There is no consistency and we’ve all said all a long they didn’t do enough with the pitching.
This is on Buster for not pushing hard enough on Greggie to get more immediate help. The farm certainly looks like there is no immediate help there either.
Yes, you build from the farm up, but you can do more than Mahler and fucking Doogie to help the rotation. And Bofucki in the pen has run his course.

Tough to watch. Baggs in TA was as down on everyone as I’ve read in long time. The 3b coach had lamest excuse; Gilbert could have scored easily as ball was fumbled and Giants could have led going to bottom 10 instead of being tied.
I realize East Coast fans are different but I watched Stephen A say couple times during the week that if Mike Brown and knicks lost to Atlanta Hawks that “heads will roll.” Doesn’t seem to be thing with anyone associated with Giants at all.
Whisenhunt was lights out against Salt Lake City, which apparently has a lot of former MLB players. Maybe he’s next man up? Dunno.

Bryce Elldridge is also KNOCKING ON THE FREAKING DOOR, with 2 bombs yesterday. Last night against the Salt Lake Bees, Eldridge had four hits in five at-bats including two home runs while driving in six runs. It was a huge night and he is now hitting .327/.426/.529 with five home runs and 20 runs batted in.
I say bring him up . . . Anything to keep from falling asleep with this current Giants line up. If Devers doesn’t like it, tough shit – do something about your walk rate, SO rate, and paucity of bombs.
I’m a huge Giants fan. I can’t watch them. When Buster didn’t fix the rotation and get a closer during the off-season, I decided to sit this season out. Especially with the Dodgers buying championships.
IMO, they don’t deserve money from the fans.
Also, Vitello went with Ryan Walker to preserve a 2-1 lead yesterday. Big mistake, particularly with Winn available, i.e., Winn has been our best reliever. For Walker, that was his 2nd blown save in 5 chances.
Didnt Winn blow game 2 of the DH?
I’m more of a blues rocker but I’ve always loved this song. I just heard a story about it that was interesting. Messina said they were about to release it and Disney sent letters letting them know they can’t release the song because of copyright infringement. He told his girlfriend about the copyright issue. She tells him, “let me call my dad.” Messina says, “that’s right, I’m dating the CEO of Disney’s daughter”. He goes over and plays the song for him in his living room. After hearing the song, he gets on the phone with the lawyers and tells them to let him release the song. We almost never got to hear this tune.
