Thanks for the information.
after the 107 win season the next three seasons felt rudderless and no surprise, Buster Posey had left the dugout.
There's a huge difference between using analytics in running a team and using an̈lyrics In projecting performance
The Giants are desperate, for an elite bat. I like Chapman but he is NOT an anchor of any lineup. He is a 5 or 6 guy that has the potential to carry you once in a while. Belt was better than Chapman because Belt could always grind an AB out and often get a walk. Chapman is just bad with RISP. Chapman just doesn't have "clutch" factor.
So… if the Giants "graduated" so many prospects why is it that Ramos is THE ONLY FUCKING ONE who has actually made it onto the big league clue… WTF HAPPENED TO THE REST OF THEM.
Oh, were gunna see them this year
REALLY, FUCKIN REALLY, WHERE?
Chapman has 3rd locked up, Adames at 2nd, Bailey has catcher, Eldridge has 1st, Lee at center and Yas at right and Ramos in left. WHERE ARE YOU GUNNA FUCKIN PLAY PEOPLE TELL ME BEN. If Ramos looks awful maybe there is a chance, we see someone else in left but were sure as hell not benching Yas, we never have… not even when he's hitting .210 and .180 with RISP. So maybe someone can beat out Ramos if he does poorly enough, and 2nd base is up for grabs… THATS IT, THOSE ARE THE ONLY POSITIONS EVEN IN PLAY AT ALL. This team isn't going to play rookies, were gunna get the same old shit we've been getting for years at this point. The team is in desperate need of a complete rebuild so what do we do, get more veterans and lock up roster spots so we have nowhere to play the rookies.
Where's my fuckin Dodger hat, this team doesn't want to change, they don't want to get better or try something different, FFS WE BROUGHT YAS BACK, AGAIN, AND BLOCKED ANY ROOKIES WE HAVE FROM LEFT FIELD FOR FUCKIN YAS, AGAIN!!! I've been a Giants fan for two decades and I've never seen it this bad, I'm done here, GO DODGERS!!!
Well the lord knows the Giants need a superstar
