It was a little discouraging to hear Bobby Evans talk about how they think Parker and Williamson are the answer in the outfield. :/
I guess we shouldn't get our hopes up.
Kinda fitting that a season marked with an unstable bullpen would end with a blown save.
Off-season wish list:
2 dependable late-innings relievers who can get outs and are unaffected by match-ups.
Productive power-hitting left fielder.
For Posey, Pence, Panik, Belt, and Crawford to figure out...
The thing about the 2016 Giants is that the key offensive players are not playing up to their potential. Posey, Pence, Crawford, Panik.
Yeah, the bullpen stinks, but a fact of the 2016 Giants is that they have 0 wins when trailing in the 9th. 0. No comebacks. No come-from-behind clutch...
Baggs did a good story about Gillaspie's return, http://blogs.mercurynews.com/giants/2016/02/21/conor-gillaspie/.
Gillaspie's among a series of 1st round busts the Giants drafted after already having a pick.
2006:
1st 1st round pick: Tim Lincecum (hit)
2nd 1st round pick: Emmanuel Burriss...
Apparently Murph found a lost box of "clutch" while cleaning out the clubhouse before Friday's game, and promptly cracked it open.
The result? Sweeping a must-win series to punch their ticket to the Wild Card game!
Of course, the last time the Giants faced Syndergaard...
Thor: 8 ip, 2 hits...
Giants win a game, but they pay for it with tightness in Hunter Pence's surgically repaired hamstring, and ghosts for Moore's head, as he will be haunted by "what could have been".
