How the Arizona Diamondbacks can reach the playoffs

Say what you like about the extra wild-card, it has certainly made things interesting. There’s really only a handful of teams in the NL who are out of the picture.

Series Preview: Mariners (48-49) vs. Giants (41-55)

With a few days to rest and reevaluate after a disappointing end to the first half of the season, the Mariners are hoping to start fresh after the All-Star break.

Buster Posey Sucks, But Don’t Take My Word For It

There was a very awkward moment in the July 16 episode of The Executive Show on KNBR in San Francisco. The hosts, Brian Murphy and Markus Boucher, were talking with Giants executive Buster Posey, making his first appearance on the show since May 21. According to SFGate , that May interview was "testy," and Posey subsequently bailed on the episode scheduled for June 25, possibly due to hurt feelings but also possibly because he was too busy making a huge mess of the team's stupid Pride Night me...

4 Trade Landing Spots For Giants' Luis Arraez

The San Francisco Giants are trending toward a sell-off at the August 3 deadline, and Luis Arraez has become one of the most talked-about names on the market. At 41-55, the Giants are near the bottom of the National League, and Arraez, a pending free agent on a one-year, $12 million deal, is the most obvious candidate to be moved. The four-time All-Star continues to provide elite bat-to-ball skills, sitting around .325 this season, and has surprisingly become one of the better defensive seco...

Fun (?) stats from the first part of the season

Remember May 1st? I don’t. But on that date, I wrote this about March & April: The Giants were not a good baseball team, which doesn’t necessarily mean that they will be a bad baseball team going forward. Nobody wants to root for a bad team anyway. That was the start of a post that […]

Thursday BP: Giants outright Eric Cerantola

The San Francisco Giants made a mild-mannered move over the All-Star break, quietly waiving right-handed reliever Eric Cerantola and outrighting him to AAA Sacramento.
