Filling out my ballot

I still don't believe Matt Chapman will be traded (hard to imagine him approving a move with a baby incoming) but I do think the Phillies would be interested. Need a RHH, in win-now mode, Alec Bohm stinks, and they aren't afraid to spend money.

Another homestand has ended, so it's time to update the most advanced statistic of our time. Maybe we should stop wearing anything but our standard uniform at home?

could never be me

File this under things I never would've guessed Drew Gilbert has the third-best K% (19.7%) and third-best BB% (8.3%) on the team.

If we can figure out a way for Logan Webb to throw 8 innings every game we've got a shot.

A STOLEN BASE LEADS TO A RUN WHAT ARE THE ODDS!?

We make so many bad decisions.

I don't know who needs to hear this but if you're on the team for your speed and defense and you haven't been particularly great on defense and make mistakes on the bases well buddy do I have bad news for you

Giants longest on-base streaks at age 21 or younger, last 95 years: 1959 Willie McCovey: 25 games 2026 Bryce Eldridge: 20 *active

Chapman has now passed Schmitt to take the team lead in RBI with 39.

IMAGINE NOT LOVING MATT CHAPMAN

Ross calling all the Cubs by their nicknames and rooting for Susac to be out at first. This is great.

So the announcers for today's national broadcast are the Cubs play-by-play announcer and the starting catcher of their World Series champion team/former manager. Cool.

@JRBayArea10 As opposed to Jonah Cox?

@FattyBarrels Trotting out Gilbert everyday is certainly a choice.

Was literally thinking to myself that Chapman's the best lead-off option on the team. He takes walks. He's a good baserunner. Kinda damning that he's the best option for the role, but well, we suck for a reason.

I'm happy to live in a country where we're allowed to protest, and I support anybody's right to protest whether I agree with what or why they're protesting or not.
