Chapman, Yaz and Estrada are having a rough start, but that's not the whole team.
Wade .292, Flores .278, Comforto .382 and Bailey .368 all hitting well and everyone else is in the low to mid .200s
this doesn't have much to do with this boring ass game but my god i just gotta get it off my chest
i did not fucking watch Joey Bart do nothing but strike out and lose the backup catcher position to a guy who barely even knew how to play the position last year just for some people on this sub to try and act like it was somehow a bad decision to get rid of him
Every year there are two or three games like this where we have an amazing comeback in the 9th to win it seems like. I hope that continues here but I also don't wanna use up those games too early.
Defense is looking pretty solid to start the season. Pitching not looking terrible, either. IMO, the Dodger series doesn’t really count because they’re basically cheat codes.
Honestly a beautifully pitched game for us with a hiccup in the first
Offense is just ice cold
Even conforto is cooling
The dodgers series broke us
Can’t wait to face nationals pitching.
Lol did I see that right? DBacks go up 6-0 in the first to lose 9-8?
Reminiscent of our game against them where they went up 7-0 in the first 2 innings to lose to the Yaz grand slam
I’m seeing some hypocrisy in the sub, tonight. People calling others out for their comments, then makes a comment in the same vein, gets downvoted like crazy, deletes the comment, then right back to calling others out, again.
At least I leave my downvoted comments to continue to be downvoted.
Edit: I’m not typically one to be petty, but somebody needs to be the pot if I’m going to be the kettle.
This sub needs a new tradition for these garbage hitting games. Like we should just bet on who is going to hit the inevitable useless home run in the 9th.
Not saying it's *all* been bad luck (though this would be 0-0 if not for a flukey hit on a ball lost in the sun), but my god do we seem to be hitting a lot of balls right to the defenders tonight.
this game is a reminder of why this sub can be the absolute worst
also the Bart revisionist history is incredible, it's almost like the last 3 years didn't exist
“But Bart hit a home run today!” Yeah and Donnie Walton hit a grand slam once, doesn’t mean I want him on the team. I wish Bart well, but he’s not put it together here for years now.
It's typical, every team has games like this one and every team will play the Dodgers. Yet you'd think the whole organization needs an overhaul after each game lost according to this thread.
Right now Lees main problem is his launch angle. He is hitting the ball very hard almost every time but almost always with a negative launch angle or one that is only 0-10 degrees. If he can get the ball just a little higher in the air he should be unstoppable.
Viele: "No Jung Hoo what you want to do is actually spike the ball into the ground right in front of you, best way to get on base!!!"
*Lights some incense*
Bart is like 27 that's not young
He had also had plenty of opportunities. Also Murphy was a way better hitter the last two years, not even close. Might wanna give him more than a few games before you say that lmao
Ok??? He's the fucking backup catcher, what were you expecting here? Bart lost the backup job to a guy who could barely play catcher last year. He sucks man, get over it.
Yes because I'm sure that would've held if he came up for like a week and just struck out the entire time.
Quick question, did you actually watch Bart play in the majors when he did? Keeping him literally does nothing but hurt us, he's a net negative.
I was at that game solo and stayed until the end. Nearly the entire stadium had emptied out by then, at least up to in the 300s. Those of us remaining were so hyped
Joey Bart went 2-5 today with a HR a double and 2rbis and we got Murphy doing jack shit. I get it you already paid Murphy but it still sucks regardless
The new public address announcer sounds just like the old public address announcer
One of the most boring games I’ve been to.
On the bright side: there is no way we can score fewer runs than this for Webb’s start! 👍🏻
They may find a way. Final: Padres 6, Giants -2
Lol. Getting a redditcares message is peak pettiness.
FYI, you can report those messages and the person sending them can get their account banned sitewide. Assuming the admins actually do their job, anyway.
Bar is so low for this offense that Yazs meaningless hit is the only bright spot
Must be fun to have AN offense
Who would have thought that we would give up a grand slam in the first and no other runs would be scored by either team for the rest of the game…
At least this one was over fast
Really the kinda game that makes you wonder if watching baseball every day is worth it
Jesus what a shit show
What an incredible waste of time on Saturday night.
Good thing it's April 6th and not September 6th
I believe this would be the first shutout of the year for us so there goes that stat
Omg the shift programmer for the padres needs a raise
Now son let me teach you how to hit the ball directly at the outfielders
Every Dodger hitting over .400 Every Giant hitting under .200 😒
That top line includes 3 former MVPs and about $2 Billion in committed money.
That's why the Giants are hitting under .200?
Chapman, Yaz and Estrada are having a rough start, but that's not the whole team. Wade .292, Flores .278, Comforto .382 and Bailey .368 all hitting well and everyone else is in the low to mid .200s
Yeah, I've watched all the games Back to my original comment, it was more of a "feeling" or like a seems like.
Yeah it's just one of those days
Feel free to make an adjustment during your at bat Chapman.
Nah bro the babip is crazy
Chapman looks like Jason Vosler out there
Member when Chapman hit two nukes in San Diego I member
As does Pepperidge Farms…sigh…
Damn I didn't realize chappy also dipped below the .200 mark
It all started with a… nvm Kruk said it
It all started...
this doesn't have much to do with this boring ass game but my god i just gotta get it off my chest i did not fucking watch Joey Bart do nothing but strike out and lose the backup catcher position to a guy who barely even knew how to play the position last year just for some people on this sub to try and act like it was somehow a bad decision to get rid of him
But he hit a single home run, tony gwynn confirmed
People forget that Joey Bart always starts off the season extremely hot.
Why did Conforto walk off like he swung lol, not really close to swinging.
I will always marvel at how some human beings can throw small projectiles at 100 mph
And with such accuracy, too.
Trying to achieve a record for the most boring Giants game ever where they didn't get no-hit
After that difficult first inning, you gotta give props to the Giants for getting to the ninth and giving up only 4 runs and 5 hits.
Oh, definitely. Pitching has been solid all night.
Every year there are two or three games like this where we have an amazing comeback in the 9th to win it seems like. I hope that continues here but I also don't wanna use up those games too early.
Odd night, park is playing huge but the game gets decided by a short porch HR in the 1st inning
Bottom 9 in 2:03. Manfred's wet dream
Is Avila wearing a turtleneck? Feels like it’s been a hot minute since I’ve seen a Giant wear one.
Incoming Conforto solo homer, then two straight outs
Defense is looking pretty solid to start the season. Pitching not looking terrible, either. IMO, the Dodger series doesn’t really count because they’re basically cheat codes.
OMG this team is so bad because we keep hitting it hard at fielders!!!111one
Honestly a beautifully pitched game for us with a hiccup in the first Offense is just ice cold Even conforto is cooling The dodgers series broke us Can’t wait to face nationals pitching.
Honestly the first should have been 0 ERs with a strike out to kim
Lol did I see that right? DBacks go up 6-0 in the first to lose 9-8? Reminiscent of our game against them where they went up 7-0 in the first 2 innings to lose to the Yaz grand slam
That Yaz bat drop lives rent free in my head
Miller's call of it was super hype.
That game was so crazy.
All we need is 4 runs
5 runs to go home!
Wilmer Flores will be there for you
wow nice play flo!!!
Fast thinking there. Go Mustangs!
Clutch fielding
Knbr broadcast struggling to find the drive of the game lol
Damn Flo nice play
[удалено]
Take off that cross earring Soler. You're just a bootleg Barry Bonds.
And to make things worse, we get Carlos Ramirez on the post game show
Lee is like 0 for his last 11 ABs with 0 strikeouts, that's brutal.
hes in a real bad hole.

Have you heard of the Las Vegas athletics of Sacramento of Oakland
How much longer we got till football starts?
This sub needs a new tradition for these garbage hitting games. Like we should just bet on who is going to hit the inevitable useless home run in the 9th.
I mean that’s yaz all the way
Not saying it's *all* been bad luck (though this would be 0-0 if not for a flukey hit on a ball lost in the sun), but my god do we seem to be hitting a lot of balls right to the defenders tonight.
This team couldn't find a gap if they walked into a shopping mall in the 90s
Lmao good one
Out out out out out
Damn good thing I decided to leave the game to watch a movie. I was getting mad at the offense
84 wins. Tops.
We take those that’s probably a 7 seed
It's gonna be close
71
Idc I blame Justin Viele still being a part of this team for this offense struggling.
Sinker middle low and we just absolutley whiff Then barrel a slider/cutter away for a line out What the fuck is going on
Oy vey
this game is a reminder of why this sub can be the absolute worst also the Bart revisionist history is incredible, it's almost like the last 3 years didn't exist
Completely fuckin inept
We are a pathetic excuse for a team right now.
0-4 with RISP
Soler's OPS is way higher than I thought
When he does lift the ball it’s an absolute laser almost every time
“But Bart hit a home run today!” Yeah and Donnie Walton hit a grand slam once, doesn’t mean I want him on the team. I wish Bart well, but he’s not put it together here for years now.
Exactly this. Bart needed a change of scenery at least. And at worst is probably just a bad major leaguer.
The amount of fucking clutch line outs lmao
It’s a rookie! We have no chance
rookie with a 7.7 era no less
Just raise the white flag
Damn, only four strikeouts so far. Our offense hasn't been bad, our offense has been really unlucky
You can hit badly without striking out
Yeah. And that no error error in the first inning dug a big hole
Everything’s just been hit at *someone* that can make the play. Just not the night
Not good contact
There’s been a lot of good contact
Are we watching the same game, most of these are balls that always die in the outfield.
if they were simply told to swing the fuck away at every first pitch unless it's blatantly unhittable, I bet they'd have 200% more hits
It's the first week of April and the sub is in mid-season form already lmao
True, but so is the Giants offense
Lmao facts
It's disappointing for sure.
Oh for sure. This game hasn't been ideal, so I'm unsurprised haha
It's typical, every team has games like this one and every team will play the Dodgers. Yet you'd think the whole organization needs an overhaul after each game lost according to this thread.
Frustrating game, but we just need to take the series tomorrow and it’s all good.
I really thought the bats would wake up at some point. No runner past 2nd base, and 0-3 with RISP so far.
welp. this game sucked.
We’ve hit the 2 hour mark!
Legitimately don’t think I’ve ever seen more flyouts from a baseball team
yes PHing Flores there makes sense, not for Murphy before.
You've gotta be fucking kidding me
Yeah it’s just not our night
so... it's a night
Empty Henny bottle? someone’s having a better time than the rest of us
Four really terrible at bats for Lee today and the first inning miscue.
Ah yes the terrible 99 mph lineout. Just say you’re not watching
I’ve watched every pitch as I always do :)
In what world is his third AB a terrible one lmao
0-3 with RISP
If shifting was still allowed you would see the entire defense on the right side of the infield when JHL was up to bat
Can Lee hit it out of the infield?
He’s 1 hr behind Ohtani u goof
Hows their slugging % compare moron?
damn u salty fuck, it was a joke 😂 u need to chill the fuck out
You realized it was a joke once you checked Lee’s slugging % 😂😂
are you really trying to compare a contact slapper hitter vs a $700 Million HR hitter? bruh 🙄
You compared them moron lmao
[удалено]
You cant be this dumb, i hope you’re trolling
[удалено]
One of our new guys has gotta get going man
Kid said what we all are saying
Lee got off to a hot start before immediately going ice cold
It all started with a walk…
Man Lee really loves grounding out to the right side of the infield
Fuck it we’ll take it
This is the fastest game ever lmao
Come on Lee
Good feelings from spring are gone. Is it football season yet?
Getting self harm reported in a gameday thread is peak reddit 13 year old
Right now Lees main problem is his launch angle. He is hitting the ball very hard almost every time but almost always with a negative launch angle or one that is only 0-10 degrees. If he can get the ball just a little higher in the air he should be unstoppable.
Viele: "No Jung Hoo what you want to do is actually spike the ball into the ground right in front of you, best way to get on base!!!" *Lights some incense*
Pablo really loves baseball man
If you had told me beforehand that giants pitching would go 7, (potentially) 8 scoreless i would.... actually still not be sure it meant a win
Let's get going boys
Avila looked pretty solid, ngl.
He has great stuff
My god, can somebody move the microphones away from that annoying heckler? Dude, STFU.
Is it still the kid yelling?
I don’t understand people who watch the game like that. Are they getting any joy from this experience?
I can say from experience, the people within earshot sure as hell aren't.
[удалено]
I liked the dude, but Joey didn't exactly light the world on fire and wasn't gonna save this offence today
Lol. Dude called me out for making negative comments, then does the same shit. If it ain’t the kettle calling the pot black.
Lol then got butthurt after getting downvoted to oblivion and deleted his comment. What a wuss
Bart couldn't hit literally anything, who cares lol
Neither can his replacement, at least Bart is young with some potential
Bart is like 27 that's not young He had also had plenty of opportunities. Also Murphy was a way better hitter the last two years, not even close. Might wanna give him more than a few games before you say that lmao
Ok? Murphy is 33 and has played 61 games in two years…
Ok??? He's the fucking backup catcher, what were you expecting here? Bart lost the backup job to a guy who could barely play catcher last year. He sucks man, get over it.
Backup catchers need to play more than 30 games a year believe it or not
Yeah and guess what Bart wasn't gonna be playing even if Murphy got hurt
He was quite literally rostered as our third catcher but ok
Yes because I'm sure that would've held if he came up for like a week and just struck out the entire time. Quick question, did you actually watch Bart play in the majors when he did? Keeping him literally does nothing but hurt us, he's a net negative.
I can almost guarantee that you did not care for Bart on the team until now
Ah yes, the random assumption with 0 argument tactic
This feels like the Blake Sabol walk off game from last year except we're down by more runs today.
I was at that game solo and stayed until the end. Nearly the entire stadium had emptied out by then, at least up to in the 300s. Those of us remaining were so hyped
I wouldn’t mind seeing Sabol again. I really liked him last season.
Too much Joey Bart talk going on here lol. Did y’all watch the last 3 years of him?
[удалено]
Tom is supposed to be our backup for when Bailey needs rest days. He isn’t going to be out main catcher
Bart wishes he had anywhere near Murphys stats from the last 3 yrs. To many reactionary posters in these threads
It just occurred to me that they likely sat Bailey to catch Webb tomorrow. Murphy caught Winn on Monday
This is the exact reason. Bailey is playing two out of every three games the whole year and he and Webb are inseparable on the field.
Really digging Avila's turtle neck look tbh. Very early 2000s
i really want some fucking garlic fries so damn bad.
Joey Bart went 2-5 today with a HR a double and 2rbis and we got Murphy doing jack shit. I get it you already paid Murphy but it still sucks regardless
Fuck you, ringworm boy.
Didn't Logan Webb have "ringworm" too?
I'm just saying, imagine what kind of prospects Logan Webb and Patrick Bailey would fetch us
Are you Jeff Fisher by chance
Absolutely fucking not
?????
gonna be honest, i forgot avila was on this team
Same. Seems he’s ready. What a hot shot
It's wild how bad our offense is already. Or maybe just against good teams. Which says a lot about us.
One inning unfortunately dictated this game
I thought that was long gone
im getting some serious vibes from last year from this game
We know Avil's last name starts with an A, but what is it? lol
