Yup, Giants still can’t beat the Diamondbacks

A month had passed since the Giants and Diamondbacks faced each other. In the meantime, Arizona’s offense had derailed, while San Francico’s had stayed railed (somewhat).

Susan Slusser slams KNBR’s Larry Krueger for ‘utterly unprofessional’ comments

San Francisco Giants beat reporter Susan Slusser shared some matter-of-fact thoughts during her appearance on KNBR last Friday. Her response to a question from guest host Larry Krueger about the longterm impact of the Giants’ Pride Night controversy raised eyebrows. It sounds like they must’ve raised Krueger’s eyebrows as well, though he didn’t say anything at…

Braves at Giants series recap: Atlanta continues to skid in San Francisco

I guess this point when you consider the nasty run of form that the Braves are currently in and the fact that these games took place in California, we should be thrilled that this wasn’t a sweep. Still, it certainly didn’t feel good to essentially watch this team just completely hit the wall for the […]

On May 22, Bryce Elder completed six innings against the Washington Nationals to lower his ERA on the season to 1.97. His FIP sat at a reasonable 3.31 and even his 3.84 xFIP was totally palatable. Flash forward to Saturday night — a span of six starts — and after surrendering five more runs to […]

Ha-Seong Kim starts again, Drake Baldwin bats cleanup against the Giants

Ha-Seong Kim is getting a third straight start at shortstop and batting ninth, as he continues to set a torridly awful pace for value and production this season. Drake Baldwin is catching and batting cleanup and the Braves really need him to find his swing again, as he has struggled since returning from injury. That […]

Highlighting some “on pace for” stats from the first 81 games

The Giants have played 81 games, marking the official halfway point of their 2026 schedule. Before I highlight some of the truly lowlights of this what’s-shaping-up-to-be historically awful season, let’s first contextualize their 33-48 record and then do that fun thing where we double all the current stats to “project” end of season results. To […]

Weekend BP: Lowlight of the Week

Good morning, baseball fans! We have reached the point of this San Francisco Giants season where it’s not really worth finding the silver linings.
