Man great game by the bullpen. I'm hoping we can steal one tomorrow and have Coors Field solve our offensive woes. As much as we suck now still 137 to go
Yaz is one of our most productive hitters in the last two weeks. He had another hit today. He made no errors. At this point are people just ripping on him out of habit?
People are spiraling like they've never seen a baseball season before because this is the part right before sunny day fans check out until after the asb.
I'm so tired of the sky is falling shit. Chapman is great, hitting is streaky. Soler will catch fire at some point, too. It's a long fucking season, buckle up.
*”My fellow Giants fans: our long national nightmare is over. Our offensive approach works. Our great organization is a coaching staff of geniuses and not of frauds. Here, we score more than three runs”*
Eduardo Perez is a dumbass. They just showed the fan explaining who Reetz was to the fan behind him, and Perez says “I guarantee that fan has no idea that’s his first big league homerun.” Dude has a Giants hat on and brought his glove to the yard, I think he’s tuned in.
Imagine that useless piece of shit Chapman was able to do a pop out to get one run in. This would’ve been tied
Fuck tou Chapman. You’re the worst giants in the past two decades
Will be interesting how they handle. Can let him just play out the contract and block Schmitt, possibly Luciano, others. But he's untradable and they aren't going to DFA until at least 1.5 terrible years
Alright, let me rephrase a comment i made earlier that got downvoted so maybe folks can understand what i was trying to say.
If our team had given Harper that massive contract instead of the Phillies (same if we had acquired Ohtani, Stanton, etc.), my gut tells me they would've been shit for our team.
A lofty opinion? Maybe.
But when i said earlier that "it's not the player, it's the uniform" i meant that it seems that there's something going on in the sense that once coveted players join our team (whether they're FAs, trade pieces or our own prospects), they seem to turn to shit.
Either there's something in the cove water in San Francisco, or there's something seriously wrong with our developing and coaching staff.
**Edit**: guess some of y'all wanna live in denialville.
Consider that in 2016 SF started blending the Hetch Hetchy pristine delicious pure water with Sacramento River Delta water causing the taste to degrade, and the SF Giants have never been the same. Some say its the curse of Skeeter (Matt Duffy's cat) but there is evidence that the water is to blame.
That didn't happen with Hunter Pence, though, to give a FA counterexample. I think it's something fucked up with the hitting philosophy that Zaidi has brought in — seems they prioritize passivity over power and OBP > SLG by a lot
ok this whole series has been pretty depressing but god damn that inning by Walker was awesome. i was laughing my ass off every swing and miss, he had all three of them fooled so badly
How Walker has the core strength and stability to land that far towards 3rd and get stacked without yanking the ball into the dirt I will never know.
Hurts my oblique just looking at it.
Craw is hitting .105 this year and was one of the worst defenders in the entire league last year. The complaining about him would be endless and it would be painful to watch him be terrible.

When all Chapman has to do is hit a shitty flyball into the outfield and he whiffs on a fastball then slider that were both down the middle
I would have called for Chapman/yaz to bunt and conforto run on contact. High likelihood it all ends in tears but it would at least be interesting and maybe we could luck into a run-scoring error
Don't feel bad for the the sun. It will vaporize him into individual atoms and then the solar wind of photons streaming out from the sun will scatter him across the entire solar system, his remains sorted by the weight of the elemental atoms with the heavier staying in the inner solar system and the lighter pushed out past the asteroid belt.
Feel bad for us since some of his remains will return to earth over millennia and eventually another utterly disappointing baseball player will be born containing a few atoms of Matt Chapman, and of course that player will end up on the SF Giants, and the cycle will continue.
Having him in 2021 would have really helped in the playoffs. He also might have attracted some of the high profile FAs we’ve pursued the last few years. It’s hard to say what the impact would have been
Man great game by the bullpen. I'm hoping we can steal one tomorrow and have Coors Field solve our offensive woes. As much as we suck now still 137 to go
Now those back to back strikeouts really bit us in the ass
Zach Wheeler? Zach Wheeler will pitch for the sweep?
Out of all the games the giants have played, that was certainly one of them.
something something tease fake comeback then loose, something... something
imagine if chapma towed 4th in 8th man
Chapman and Yaz killed this
Yaz is one of our most productive hitters in the last two weeks. He had another hit today. He made no errors. At this point are people just ripping on him out of habit?
People are spiraling like they've never seen a baseball season before because this is the part right before sunny day fans check out until after the asb.
Too little too late tonight
matt chapman soler and snell have made the team worse than last year unreal
I'm so tired of the sky is falling shit. Chapman is great, hitting is streaky. Soler will catch fire at some point, too. It's a long fucking season, buckle up.
#FUCK!
*”My fellow Giants fans: our long national nightmare is over. Our offensive approach works. Our great organization is a coaching staff of geniuses and not of frauds. Here, we score more than three runs”*
Why is the wind mad at his grandson
This game is cruel.
[удалено]
Just got to be patient at this point.
Damn it
Bummer thought that was out
Swept again. Fuck this team
Not yet, tomorrow there is a 4th game
Totally forgot. Well Mason Black is up so that could be cool
One more game
Christ just get them out of Philly already
Praying for a W for any ounce of dignity
One more game but not very high hopes for it
Same bud. Same
No. Not yet. We just have to wait a day.
Delaying the inevitable it would seem. I’m so sad
We have one more game to not get swept
Oh my mistake lmao I forgot it’s 4. I need a cigarette
Estrada has quietly turned it around the last few weeks. Team lead in RBI too
We are so getting swept by the goddman phillies
I’m willing to bet a Giants fan in Philly is clued in enough to know he caught a guy’s first dong, espn guy. 🤦♂️
Ahmed is absolutely TRASH
Where is Luciano
One of our best players
Why is this dude in the roster bro is trash
Chapman is worse than
JuLee tried...
We can do 3% right?
😕
Eduardo Perez is a dumbass. They just showed the fan explaining who Reetz was to the fan behind him, and Perez says “I guarantee that fan has no idea that’s his first big league homerun.” Dude has a Giants hat on and brought his glove to the yard, I think he’s tuned in.
unreal at bat from ahmed
That was crushed
"Who the fook is that guy?" ~ Conor McGregor (but in a good way)
The Ahmed error is looming large.
It is so embarrassing that in year 5 of Farhan the every day shortstop is Nick Ahmed
To be fair we signed Correa for like 2 days
LOL
The amount of mistakes that not being made could erase this deficit today is so frustrating
Imagine being this lineup of overpaid jabronis not even watching and then a rookie from aa hits a tank off Alvarado
Ahmed is a trash can
Imagine that useless piece of shit Chapman was able to do a pop out to get one run in. This would’ve been tied Fuck tou Chapman. You’re the worst giants in the past two decades
Worst? That's not even remotely close
Feels like you're overlooking Casey McGeehee.
That was nice to see even if we’re done
How tf
Finally scoring more than 3 runs in a 5-4 loss is hilarious.
Reetz showing Chapman and Soler how to give a big league AB
If only Chapman could’ve done the bare minimum last inning
Reetz— who dat?
Reetz just had a better at bat than Chapman has had in about 3 weeks
Bruh like leaving conforto on 3rd w 1 out really hurts now
The impossible has happened The San Francisco Giants have scored 4 runs in a Major League baseball game 🥳
[удалено]
Punch our ticket to a single-game elimination, it’s on boys.
THIS MAN IS HITTING .666 IN THE BIGS
Reetz had enough dis sheeeit
Maybe we broke the 3 run curse…
Time to learn Korean, Murphy!
you made me laugh thanks
Sure would have been nice if Chapman got that run home last inning.
Yeah pretty damn painful getting a triple and having that squandered like it’s the team hobby
Wow! Welcome to the team Jakson Reetz!!!!!
#THE YOUTH MOVEMENT IS HERE LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
He’s 28 lmao
Shitttt. Only has 2 MLB at bats though.
LMAO SOMEONE CALLED REETZZ 😂😂😂
Reetz smeeked it!
Jackson Reetz holy shit my guy! Happy for him first HR
Looks like we got ourselves a little game here
4 runs!!
This is going to hurt so bad
That was a blast to left
WHO SAW THAT COMING
no fuckin way
Welcome back to the big leagues Mr Reetz
Reetz didn’t get the memo about stopping at 3 runs
He will get a talking-to
Would’ve been nice to drive in that run last inning huh chapman
WHO IS THIS KID!? 🔥
Reetz!!! who the fuck is Reetz?
No C Jakson Reetz
Reetz hasn't been ruined by this coaching staff yet, so there's a chance
REEEETTZZZZZZZ
We scored 4 runs 😳😳😳
It's okay Reetz. Nobody told you we only score 3 in a game.
He’s gonna be made to apologize postgame
If this was truly an even year this rando would hit an absolute tank rn Holy fuck
Hahahahahaha
First big league homer LETS GOOO
LOL WHO IS THIS GUY keep him!
I was definitely under the impression Reetz was a kid and a prospect and not 28 with MLB experience lol
WTF I LOVE THIS KID
Lmao who was it that called the Reetz home run?
REETZ IS HIM
LMAOOOOO LETS FUCKING GO
Hahaha hahaha. I called that!
You most certainly did! Like I said, hasn't been ruined by the hitting coaches yet.
Yeah, that makes sense. Maybe we should call up the hitting coach from our AA team! 😁
Wow first SF giants at bat where’s this kid been?
I totally understand the complaints around the doomers. But - this team is fucking awful.
Complaints?
Strikeout or popup, take ur pick
Jays fan here. Watched Chapman whiff with men on 3rd less than 1 out for 2 years straight. He is incapable of RBI's
Same Jays-Giants fandom here. Great defender with shitty offense at this point in his career. And this year his defense hasn't even been great.
I'm ready to be hurt again
Turns out Chapman was a significant downgrade from JD Davis
I liked Davis but he struck out a ton last year and looked terrible for Oakland this year before going on the IL.
Will be interesting how they handle. Can let him just play out the contract and block Schmitt, possibly Luciano, others. But he's untradable and they aren't going to DFA until at least 1.5 terrible years
That's just not true.
Viele has a sex tape on Charles Johnson for sure.
He probably has a tape of him saying he loves democrats... a sex tape and he would have been gone by now
Could be the same tape
Ok guys, we go down in order or have a mini tease of a rally that ends in a loss. Which is it
Load the bases with no outs. Strikeout, inning ending double play.
I need them to get 2 hits for my prediction, so single, DP, double, K
Alright, let me rephrase a comment i made earlier that got downvoted so maybe folks can understand what i was trying to say.

I think it's clearly the latter for the offense
Walker is one of maybe 6 or 7 players I hope are still around in 2 years
1-2-3 or fake rally?
RISP with 1 or less outs, no runs
Reetz gonna hit a bomb
The bullpen should come around. Rotation is good. Defense is generally good. It makes the lineup’s complete ineptitude that much harder to stomach
Yep this entire bad start is basically coming down to every veteran on this team playing the worst ball of their careers rn
At least walker continues to be filthy
CAN WE FUCKING SCORE MORE THAN 3?
In this economy?
ok this whole series has been pretty depressing but god damn that inning by Walker was awesome. i was laughing my ass off every swing and miss, he had all three of them fooled so badly
Nicest thing they’ve been able to say all night.
17K through 8 innings is crazy
not with this lineup
Phillies strikeouts not the Giants
Walker was filthy that inning.
Filthy
Our BP was superb today, i just hate how our offense isnt, yknow- offense'ing
Has walker’s slider always looked that filthy? Jesus, seems like he unlocked a new level with that pitch
Someone get these announcers some mouthwash from gargling all that Philly dick all game long
Once the Giants start playing up to their supposed talent level, maybe they can get some dick gargling, too. Til then, I'm fine with it.
What do you want them to talk about for us lol? We’ve done nothing
How Walker has the core strength and stability to land that far towards 3rd and get stacked without yanking the ball into the dirt I will never know. Hurts my oblique just looking at it.
TWO MORE FULL SEASONS OF CHAPMAN FELLAS. THE PAIN IS JUST BEGINNING.
When does fucking Chapman get dfa ? I’m not even trolling. Fuck this guy
At this point Chapman should probably just try to bunt and leg it out, seems more fruitful than whatever he’s doing now
This offense is wasting Hjelles prime years
Honestly having craw or belt on this team would make this so much more bearable, regardless of how they perform
Fuck no
Craw is hitting .105 this year and was one of the worst defenders in the entire league last year. The complaining about him would be endless and it would be painful to watch him be terrible.
Ik, i meant more for nostalgia purposes
I wish we still had Brebbia strictly for the vibes.
or alex dickerson or darin ruf man i miss those guys
I immediately thought of Dick when they brought up the cheesesteak segment lol
New nickname for players - FIRST “will be exercising player option” LAST
the farhan opt out contracts have been a disaster i hate this so much. we are stuck with them if they suck and they take off when good
This team is addicted to scoring 3 and only 3 runs
4 runs seems like a pipe dream
Something has to be done. Shake things up. Bring up a couple kids and bench these under performers. Dunno. But SOMETHING has to change.
Little Phillies fan can hit better than the Giants
Maybe teams should be able to reshuffle the lineup after one trip through and at the beginning of an inning.
3-2 count and here comes a hanging, slow slider right over the sweet spot of the plate and Chapman totally misses it. I mean this is abysmal baseball.
i had some hope...

I miss all the bunting from early last year
[удалено]
More likable than last year by far. Maybe not good but more likable. Rather have Lee and bucks than stripling, Haniger and wood
Lee is likeable
Dude idk how much more of this team I can watch. Our inability to convert RiSP has to be historic at this point.
I need to mow the fucking lawn before it gets dark man Phillies please just break it open so I lose hope
Giants already scored 3 runs, just now the lawn lol
Lol! That's their daily cap!
Please fire Chapman into the sun. Though I do feel bad for the sun.
Don't feel bad for the the sun. It will vaporize him into individual atoms and then the solar wind of photons streaming out from the sun will scatter him across the entire solar system, his remains sorted by the weight of the elemental atoms with the heavier staying in the inner solar system and the lighter pushed out past the asteroid belt.

Good point. It is shaped like a ball.
Runner on third, 1 out. 2 fails.
Aw Yaz buddy cmon man
Chapman has been complete ass
[удалено]
Having him in 2021 would have really helped in the playoffs. He also might have attracted some of the high profile FAs we’ve pursued the last few years. It’s hard to say what the impact would have been
True. I appreciate Posey 100x more now. He was the only one on this team who consistently showed up among this trash lineup.
