    I saw him play when he was with the Giants against the Astro's in the Dome in the early to mid '60s.

    Holy crap the hitting on this team. And their best player is out #27.

    Bregman has 13 hits the last 9 games and 8 are homeruns. Springer is batting .500 over that period with about as many. 8 runs a game. Like a beer league softball team.

    %#@&,.. Giants starters batting averages, .265, .245, .235, .232, .229, .228, .213, .183

    we'll sell off Bumgarner soon, then others,.. but not Posey, they want him to mentor Joey Bart

    our outfield fence will be reconfigured after the season

    Well we don't need a catcher anymore. Lsu could use these bats. 6 runs since i typed that thru 2.

    Altuves got a hammy so diaz from the cards is Grand slam sunday and another homer since. And theres another. 7-0.

    Have won 10 of 11 if they hold on and won 10 in a row earlier.

    They could use another starter. Bum?

    Astros head to Fenway this weekend probably cools them off.

    *8-1 top 4.

    Giants gonna let the gd doyers keep winning?

    If Bregman wouldn't start every year so slow he could hit .350 40 130.

    I cursed a pox on those fuckers, it's out of my hands now

    Bum's still got it, the thinking is, he'll go way before the deadline,.. with a team friendly contract, he has good value as a hired gun... he and the Giants are hinting about him resigning with us next year.

    enjoy your team tirk, you paid your dues
    .......................................

    sigh,.. we tried using a new age starter to begin today's game,.. never got out of the 2nd inning,.. Vlad Guerrero jr hit his 1st mlb home run, so that was a big thrill,.. Lol, this sucks

    When are Springer and Altuve coming back? Since Altuve has been out Bregman is not seeing many good pitches.
