Can always count on the boomer managers to love the "gritty" veteran defensive SS, even if he's not really all that good on defense anymore

 

[SLAB]

Heliot Ramos is the man at least.

 

[SLAB]

HELIOT

 

[Kingz19]

Atleast Ramos is raking. We may finally have a live bat from the farm

Too bad this appears to be a 75-80 win season

 

[Kingz19]

Finally Soler has a day with runners in scoring position

Slater is playing very well

Man, feels like we're leaving A LOT on the table though. Snell, Chapman, Soler, Flores, Conforto, Doval should all be playing significantly better than they are. Feels unlikely they're just all collectively washed the same season. A lot of these early wins are due to the kids. If the vets ever get on board, I think we got a great shot to go get a WC spot.

Ramos with opposite field bomb

And Trenton Brooks blunder scores

Trash bullpen strikes again.

 

[dude12]

This plate umpire has stuck it to the Giants tonight

 

[Kingz19]

THAIRO!

 

[dude12]

Estrada bomb!

 

[The_Jamal]

Curt Casali the GOAT back-up catcher.

 

[SLAB]

From a couple games above .500 to only being better than the Rockies and Marlins in the span of a month. Shockingly right around the time the old dudes got healthy.

Grand Opening, Grand Closing.

 

[dude12]

Giants right now have a 2 man rotation. Winn hurt, Harrison hurt, will they pull up Whisenhunt and or Seymour? Try Black again? Teng experiment again? Tough times

 

[SLAB]

Exclusively play kids please. Thank you.

I thought Birdsong did pretty dang ok. Left a few pitches out of the plate, but the stuff looked nasty. Worth another look at least, I don't think he was overmatched, at all.

Yeah, no excuse for Ramos/Matos/Wisely to not be in the lineup everyday at this point. They're pretty much the reason this season hasn't gotten totally out of hand.

Yaz/Conforto/Slater can platoon the other OF spot.

 

[dude12]

Nice walkoff win over the bad guys. Keep playing the young guys

Not going to be surprised when they send Matos back down when Yaz is back. I mean they put Ahmed back into the lineup. I’d rather them just play Wisely or Schmitt or even Fitzgerald over Ahmed. Luciano with A couple of months left

Perhaps Melvin is sticking with Howard a bit too long here?

Part of the problem is the whole pen is getting overworked. When the long relief guys don’t perform, it’s a major problem

 

[Kingz19]

Bailey and Chapman choke

Chapman is almost as bad as Soler with runners on. Bailey has no doubt left a small village on the base pads today as well

 

[Kingz19]

That’s game

 

[Kingz19]

oh look, hits with runners in scoring position…and lots of them

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

That was an excruciatingly painful 1/2 inning of baseball.

 

[Kingz19]

Lots of good hits with runners on today

 

[Kingz19]

Excellent work Bivens
