4.8 out of 5 stars from 1.5k ratings
  • Good Diction

    No judgment if you or someone you know uses a lot of discourse markers (e.g., “um,” “like”). But you will find they are quite few and far between on this podcast! And while I can imagine some are cut while editing, I feel what we hear is pretty darn close to what they record! Makes for a great listen. Bravo!

  • Five stars!

    It’s a good show. A really good show about the San Francisco Giants. Do you like the San Francisco Giants? If yes this is your show. If not you’ve made some weird choices to wind up here. Do reviews have to be a certain length to “count” as legit? Maybe? Who knows? This seems like it’s probably long enough. Go Giants!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why mess of a season 'can't get worse' after another series loss
Q: How do you see Bryce Eldridge impacting the lineup, and what's the plan for integrating him with veterans?
Posey and the hosts imply a gradual integration, leveraging Eldridge's defense and offense while allowing veterans to lead; the plan includes strategic rest days and mixing in Casey Schmitt at multiple positions to optimize the lineup.
Why mess of a season 'can't get worse' after another series loss
Q: What do you think it is about baseball that keeps fans coming back despite a rough stretch?
The hosts suggest it's about community and enduring fandom, with moments of memory and hope—like standout games or unexpected heroics—that keep fans connected to the team even in bad times.
How Landen Roupp, Jung Hoo Lee fueled San Francisco's winning homestand
Q: Is there a chance Luis Arriz could sneak into the All-Star game this year given his steady play and defensive excellence?
He could have a real shot at the All-Star game if his offense continues to improve and he stays in the mix, though the group around second base in the NL is strong and makes the path competitive.
How Landen Roupp, Jung Hoo Lee fueled San Francisco's winning homestand
Q: Could Landen Roupp be an early contender for the Cy Young Award or even an All-Star selection?
We think he is in the All-Star conversation through the next couple of months if he keeps pitching at this level, but the Cy Young is a much bigger jump and would be surprising given the workload and the level of competition in the NL.
Brandon Belt teases potential involvement with Giants
Q: Is there a world in which the Giants look to move Matt Chapman and make Casey Schmitt their everyday third baseman?
The hosts close that door, emphasizing Belt's perspective that the organization intends to keep core players like Matt Chapman for the long term and to build around their developing infield, including Casey Schmitt.
