a rough stretch

Rough stretch. A 1-6 week. That's the biggest factor right now. Compounding things, a loss by 5 last night and the vibes reflect it.

Giants News

The San Francisco Giants are stuck in a grim cycle, and it shows in their disappointing 14-21 record, with a dismal 1-6 stretch over the last week. While Casey Schmitt and Luis Arraez shine as the team's brightest stars, the Giants face a tough choice between these two hot bats. Meanwhile, Erik Miller's stint on the IL raises questions about the team's closer situation, as they may finally have to settle on Caleb Kilian or Keaton Winn. The pitching staff, highlighted by Logan Webb's rough outing against the Padres, has struggled to keep runs off the board, exacerbating the team's woes. With only 2.4 runs per game over the past week, the Giants need to find their offensive spark fast if they want to avoid falling further behind in the division.

Near the end of Tuesday’s telecast of the San Diego Padres’ 10-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants, broadcaster Duane Kuiper tried to look on the bright side of Matt Chapman’s 0-for-4 night. “If it’s any consolation,” Kuiper said, “Chapman’s had the longest out in this game.” That’s how hard it was to find a […]
