Ford2112 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Giants won last night after Patrick Baileys walk off 3 run bomb. I like this kid. Nobody can fill Buster Posey's shoes, but so far it's been fun to watch him play. On the other hand, Jorge Soler has been not so fun to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, when position players start pitching it's a bit of a non-event... but I'll take what I can get. Also, usually find after a blowout win the bats go quiet and you lose 1-0 or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford2112 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Giants won 2 series and split one at home. Now off to play Boston, the Phillies and then to the worst place to play baseball, Coors Field. Hopefully we can win there 18 to 12 😵💫 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCCubano Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Royals got off to good start but have come back down to earth a bit. Still, they look much better than they were over the last several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigGuns Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Interesting delay last night in AZ Game started an hour and a half late and LAD lost in 10. Much nicer goings on this evening (currently up 6-0, not a bee in sight) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCCubano Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 @Capn_Jackson. Your Rangers come to KC for a three game set starting tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford2112 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 The most exciting thing Jorge Soler has done for the Giants so far is breaking his bat over his knee out of frustration. While our pitching is good and defense vastly improved,and Jung Hoo Lee exceeding expectations as a rookie,the offense is 20th in the league. That's not gonna cut it. Dodgers are pulling away. We play them soon. I don't see the Giants as a playoff team that's for certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, this semester has been so busy I have hardly paid any attention to baseball. I’m missing out! I know Salvy’s getting it done, and I know KC won more games in April than they did in April/May combined last year. Students are testing. Papers almost graded, and grades will be submitted this weekend, so I’ll have some time to watch soon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rckymtn22 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Blue Jays are frustrating to watch. Decent pitching with a pop-gun offence. Their so called stars can't hit most nights and the manager can't or won't change the batting order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 On 3/4/2024 at 5:53 PM, JohnS said: Honestly, not expecting big things from our Mets this year. I'd be interested to see which one of the young prospects comes up into the Major Leagues and makes a name for themselves this season. So, this season is turning out in the NL East as I thought it would. For the Mets, I knew pre-season that it would be a rebuild year. After selling off our big-name signings (i.e. Max Scherzer, Justin Verlander) and getting a heap of prospects in return, our farm system is actually looking good for once (or perhaps ever since I can remember). I'm looking forward to Christian Scott making his major league debut as he is scheduled to pitch against the Tampa Bay Rays tomorrow. I hope he goes well enough to stay in the rotation and can stay relatively injury-free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldeneye Posted Tuesday at 02:54 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:54 PM The Blue Jays started out quite well and were fun to watch but they are fading fast and battling for a wild card spot is starting to feel unrealistic. It wouldn't surprise me if John Schneider is the first manager fired this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford2112 Posted Tuesday at 07:14 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 07:14 PM The Giants are 15-21 heading to Colorado and then we play the Dodgers. Something better turn around and fast lol. Ticket prices may plummet though so that's good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's rough when you get to feeling that a streak is required quickly to turn things around... fighting the math can get out of hand quickly. The Red Sox are 19-16 and 4.5 gb. Totally manageable spot but it already feels like we need a streak just to keep pace with the O's and Yanks. Injuries so key for this roster at the moment, another big one (especially in pitching) could see the wheels fly off, but I like what I've seen so far overall... a couple of key trades (this year or next) could see this being a pretty decent side.

Ford2112 Posted Tuesday at 11:34 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:34 PM I never figured we would keep pace with L.A. they are just too deep. But I still feel if the offense gets going we have the pitching to carry us to a wild card. Now in another month things could be a different story. Right now it's tough to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
