You'd think all the pundits would have learned from last year not to underestimate this team. Yet pundit after pundit is picking them for 83 wins or less. The Giants have a very good pitching staff, which will keep them in a lot of games. By and large the team plays very good defense (now that Dickerson and Bryant are gone) which will also keep them in games. And I believe that they will get timely hitting. No, they wont get 107 wins again, but they will easily be a playoff team IMO“Well, I like to say I’m completely focused, right? I mean, the game’s on the line.

The Giants take 2 of 3 from the Marlins. It's great seeing both Bart ands Ramos in the majors. It's time for the prospects to make some noise. Hopefully, this is just the beginning. The Giants have some great arms in the minors coming up.Strikeouts are boring! Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic.-Crash DavisComment

Well, 8-3 on a LONG roadtrip is pretty darn good. Had to love last nights win over the BrewCrew with the late Gonzalez 2 run dinger. Oh, and Joc Pederson is just killing it out there. What a great signing“Well, I like to say I’m completely focused, right? I mean, the game’s on the line. It’s not like I’m thinking about what does barbecue Pop Chips and Cholula taste like.

On KNBR this morning they were talking about Joc Pederson and all the best Dodger-turned-Giants players from the past. They mentioned Reggie Smith and Candy Maldanado!Originally posted by KHenry14 View Post

The Daren Ruf is hitting into bad luck is BS
He constantly takes strike one with a straight fastball getting a good part of the plate
Then he swings at pitches out of the strike zone, and flails at strike 3 or hits an easy out
This will not change1. The more I learn, the more convinced I am that many players are over-rated due to inflated stats from offensive home parks (and eras)

Mauricio Dubon is not a major leaguer
Clueless in basic fundamentals and that includes hitting, baserunning and fielding
Reminds me of Eugenio Velez although Dubon is slightly more talented
not an asset but a liabilityLast edited by 9RoyHobbsRF; 05-05-2022, 10:57 AM.1. The more I learn, the more convinced I am that many players are over-rated due to inflated stats from offensive home parks (and eras)
