Don't love extras on day 1.

Which do you NOT love more:

A. Extras on Day 1
B. Runner on 2nd base to start off each inning past the 9th

The ghost runner is the worst rule in all of sports.

The ghost runner is the worst rule in all of sports.

It barely edges out the stupid 3 on 3 OT + shootout rule in the NHL on my list, but I'm pretty confident that it will never be beaten.

Just let ties be a thing. Who cares? 3 innings of OT, if the away team scores, the home team has a chance to match/win.

I will not watch another baseball game if ties ever become a thing.

I’m done with Dubon. Dude has negative IQ still.

 

[The_Jamal]

jesus christ, mental mistakes all over the place today. Ruf/Dubon on the bases, shoddy defense.

I can’t wait until Slater stops getting chances as well.

LOL the Slab curse continues

Giants absolutely did not deserve to win this game, but hey I'll take it. Very very sloppy.

 

[SLAB]

That was very 2021 of them. Lmao

Is baseball happening? Did baseball just happen somewhere? Meh.

Don't forget the River Cats are playing here in West Sac - we went to the game on Thursday night and had a lot of fun. They are 4-0 and have had some exciting games. Throw some love to the local boys and go enjoy what we have here.

Hello, Carlos Rodon! Now THATS an impressive first impression.

 

[SLAB]

Call up a new 3B.

 

[SLAB]

Pretty sure Yaz is just bad now.

Pretty sure Yaz is just bad now.

Maybe there’s a reason he was a minor league guy in his late-20s?

Totally agree. Late 20s guys who have their breakouts don’t typically stick.

Offense is going to be a major problem this season … not that I’m surprised.

Yeah going to need Bart and Ramos to hopefully pop.

 

[SLAB]

Ramos going to have to get thrown into the fire sooner rather than later if Yaz continues like this. Hopefully LaMonte doesn’t regress when he returns (though very likely IMO) because the current trio isn’t going to get it done.

Kind of wish they brought back McCutchen. Not too expensive, solid, short-term, familiar. Would have been a nice addition for our short-term try to contend window while we wait for the young prospects to get here in a season or two.

DUDE!

Love it.

Just watched him play locally last Thursday. Glad to see it!

 

[The_Jamal]

DUDE!

Love it.

It's exciting to see him up. Finally getting some of our elite homegrown prospects back up after such a long drought from the Timmy/Pablo/Posey/Bum era.

 

[Kingz19]

Finally

Ramos has WHEELS! Didn’t expect that first-to-home so easily.
