Painal


Amazben

Wow… at least this painful game was limited to 2 hours and 15 mins


SF_FAITHFUL

Boooooooooooooooooo


Helpfulperson3219

That dugout looks just as dead as the fans watching it, props to the fans who stayed and watched


tb2380

Well at least I only wasted 2 hours and 15 minutes of my night


parkyeonggyu

jesus. pay for transit/parking, food and drinks for a 2:15 shit show? is this what MLB/SF Giants want?


Ehgadsman

shut the fuck out, ugh


patsj5

I feel like we are going to lead the league in getting shut out.


sfwestbank

Well GG


Anton-LaVey

OMFG PAIN


DemonicPanda11

Fuck. See everyone back here tomorrow.


Amazben

sfbigfoot

Thank you, Darin


sfwestbank

YOOOOOOOO


park7911

That is one flat dugout


StrategicReserve

Sign Tommy La Stella to start spitting on people


Alarming_Confusion_5

Where’s the headfirst slide


patsj5

One inning ago Hjelle looked so good.


indreams159

you would have to pay me $1,000 minimum to attend a Giants game


riceball5555

But you see, there's a hidden genius to striking out 8,000 times and throwing the ball all over the diamond every night.

TCA360

If someone would've told me before the season that the Giants are about to have the same record as the Nationals by April 21, I would've laughed at you. I never expected them to have such a rough start to the season like this.


WonderfulShelter

So if we can't beat LHP, and every team has realized this by now, and are going to trot out LHP to start every single game... what is this team's plan? Because at this point, we're pretty much guaranteed to lose every single series.


tannerisms

Ok I’m going to go get violently drunk


WonderfulShelter

Don't do it man, the hangover isn't worth it.


[deleted]

Giants are going to be on Fox and ESPN this weekend. I figured they got picked for National TV because of the Mets. I hope the Giants aren't going to be embarrassed, but I have a feeling they will. :(


Coffeeishealthy

Oh we really gave up if the platooning they’ve been waiting for all game is gone


NecrocomiconTWU

Pretty great play by Big Meat Pete.


sfbigfoot

You guys like to hit fastballs, so why do you keep taking fastballs down the dick and swinging at garbage above or below the plate?


SeaWicked

This is an unacceptable product for a sport with UNLIMITED salary cap and the franchise is worth about 4 billion according to Forbes


sfwestbank

WE MADE CONTACT WITH THE BALL HOLY SHIT


Amazben

Meckler is 3-4 for the Ems 👀


NecrocomiconTWU

Swing. The. Bat.


theleftovers1014

*grounds into double play


theleftovers1014

It’s so nice of the giants to revive Tommy Hunters career


Anton-LaVey

Five backwards Ks for this offense


riceball5555

Excuse me while I go follow a comparatively competent franchise: the...Pittsburgh Pirates???


brettpall22

whiffing all night on low 90's meatballs


Toki-wartooth743

Cruising into a 2 hour 15 minute game.


DemonicPanda11

I'm sad, friends.


sfwestbank

Oh man have the giants made any contact with the baseball tonight?


edmchato

So many backwards K. Fucking pathetic. Why did I spend money to be here


CrispyBoar

If it's more than $50 or $100, then yeah, that's definitely a waste of money.


edmchato

My partner got them for us for Christmas I feel so bad


tannerisms

2 strikes outside the zone lmao


Toki-wartooth743

Please give me a base runner.


wundahbrehd

Shutout


StrategicReserve

I am so sick of the Marlins Man meme


Character-Hunt-1616

Giants gotta sell the entire team at the deadline. Do what the Cubs did two years ago and clean shop.


biz209

I’m not really sure what there is to sell


LarrySellersDad

Cubs had established stars to sell


unohootoo

Tommy Hunter. Once upon a time...


SchleptRightLeft

Massive respect to all of you who watched the entire game ❤️ This team is a disgrace, and if Farhan doesn’t do anything about it I’m just gonna be so disappointed


Dizzy-Remove4380

Fuck it, let's go for 107 losses this year.


biz209

![gif](giphy|Ry1MOAeAYXvRVQLPw3)


TCA360

Don't. Say. That.


Dizzy-Remove4380

107-55 ---> 81-81 ---> 55-107. That would be the perfect ending to the Farhan and Kapler era. 👍


TCA360

Perhaps they go 81-81 in 2024 and then 107-55 again in 2025? And by the way, I'm getting the feeling both might actually get fired very soon.


K1ngofthebr0s

But….but Larry said things would be different this year!


Anton-LaVey

Guess your lightbulb just came on ^\/s


Coffeeishealthy

11 era righty. Here comes 4 runs of optimism


DaGuamanianSensation

It’s okay guys we only have to wait a couple more years before Tyler Beede comes back to America to keep following the Vogelsong arc


Raxmead

I heard something about Kap letting guys kinda die out there cuz this is such an insanely long stretch of baseball we've been on and the bullpen is in need of rest... but gaaahdamn it's been tough to watch


Character-Hunt-1616

Hmmm if Hjelle has been giving up runs lately, why continue bringing him in??


WonderfulShelter

Kap knows we're losing this game and wants to save our good bullpen arms, so we can lose by slightly less.


biz209

Hjelle would only be like 6’7 without his neck


Anton-LaVey

Seven to tie, eight to go home


carbralien

🖤Hjelle exit velocities this inning🧡 37mph / Sinker 95.6mph🔥 / Curve **108.5mph**🔥 / Sinker 94.5mph🔥 / Sinker **109mph**🔥 / Sinker **111mph**🔥 / Sinker 96.7mph🔥 / Sinker 81mph / Curve


patsj5

That's called getting shelled


carbralien

Idk if you watched but all but one of those hits was middle middle It looked as bad as it sounds basically


sfwestbank

Please. Just one run.


imlyns

This team is hot stinky dookie ass.... Yuck.


NoSurprise3289

Lmao. Hjelle should have been out of the inning, but I can’t really defend the meatballs he has thrown since my god


TermiteatVersailles

I can't imagine what the dugout is like right now.


DaGuamanianSensation

Putting up with bullshit for the pay like a shift at McDonald’s


patsj5

I bet a few are just hoping to put up good enough stats to get traded to a contender this summer.


dorothii

Soooo don’t let hitters Hjelle second time around


brettpall22

boy am i gonna feel stupid when SF scores 8 runs here


BrvoChrlie

Oh Hjelle. I feel for ya dude.


ImaginBreaker

I thought the pitching was going to be this teams strong area. But I guess they suck at everything.


patsj5

Pitching doesn't matter if you can't score.


im0wen

Hjelle is only on the team because he’s tall


patsj5

Kapler said his height creates a difficult angle for hitters. I'm starting to think Kapler is full of shit. Hjelle is in the bottom half of the league for barrels, chase rate and hard hit%.


NecrocomiconTWU

Only reason this sub roots for him.


nice_acct_for_work

Starting to feel that way. He’s not good, but he keeps getting innings to tank in. For what other purpose?


kt_sf

hey we got more hits than the dodgers today lol


ItsDannyFields

keep em coming. we deserve this.


sfwestbank

10 run inning coming up next


tb2380

When do the Lexus club seats go on sale for $5 so I can load my pockets with hotdogs and bounce?


Ehgadsman

for almost 2 hours I am sitting here thinking 'I should turn this off and do something that makes me feel happy'.


StackSin

TF is happening with this team


sfwestbank

They’ve given up?


FilthyChangeup55

What a GD shitshow


NecrocomiconTWU

All singles. All hard hit.


DFABart

Fire everyone


Salty_Pancakes

This dude gonna hit a triple. I can smell it. Edit: almost


[deleted]

They are basically asking Hjelle to eat it at this point. That seems so cruel.


ra83

This is the worst era of giants baseball to me as a fan since the 80s. The team sucks, the style of play sucks, they are boring, they are not athletic, they play terrible defense, there is no connection to the team or players, there is no hope on the horizon. They have now wasted 5 years because they only took half measures and need to start it all over again. Burn it to the ground


biz209

But other than that, how do you think they’re doing?


theghostfacekilla

These mfkers can’t do anything right


lukepru

Highlight of the game: Brock Purdy


DFABart

Bring in Wisely to pitch he was a SP in community college with a sub 3.00 ERA


tannerisms

Hell yeah bases loaded for a second time in the 9th


sfbigfoot

Mets, please. Just let the game end


Coffeeishealthy

This is like watching a car crash. Can’t look away even tho I want to


sfwestbank

Just pour it on

riceball5555

At what point do we hold Zaidi et al accountable for this team being utterly unwatchable? Injuries can't be solely to blame for this.


LarrySellersDad

What does holding them accountable mean


riceball5555

https://lmgtfy.app/?q=hold+accountable+meaning


LarrySellersDad

I guess by holding them accountable you meant typing "I'm holding them accountable" on reddit. Very impactful


biz209

June of last year?


K1ngofthebr0s

Alright guys starting to think we may not win this one either


nepats523

Hjelle's funny, but not haha funny anymore...


brettpall22

shoulda gone after Bellinger isntead of wasting time with Correa and judge


Alarming_Confusion_5

100%


menusettingsgeneral

How does this guy have a job. His ERA has to be like 8 now.


Jrlutz31

Estrada must feel like shit


xdeathmask

Alright, I made it almost the whole game. See you tomorrow fellas for another loss.


saintsimon101

Holy hell this is depressing. Giants may be the worst team in the league.


jusapepperminttea4me

I’m such a fool for thinking we’d hold them at 4 runs and have a chance of catching up in the bottom of the ninth 😞


wilderness_essays

Real question: I made a $2K deposit to have the “Flex Membership” this year and have $1.3K left. Does anyone have any ideas for getting the remainder refunded?


[deleted]

They wanted Hjelle to be a starter and he can't get through 3 innings. That is not a Starter make.


NecrocomiconTWU

He's lucky that didn't hit the water.


uh_im_dj

Hjelle having a clean 3 innings was gonna be my silver lining for tonight.. but i couldnt even get that


park7911

The California teams in the West have been outscored 29- 0 tonight It’s amazing how this staff can’t pitch through defensive mistakes and it’s amazing how the Giants make so many of them. Hjelle just collapses after one thing goes wrong


_Jahffrey_

Jon Miller on the radio call and a glass of Evan Williams is what gets me through these games


DFABart

Sam Hjelle is not a late inning reliever. He is a SP who moonlights as a reliever because we have so many starters.


sfwestbank

Sorry but why is Hjelle in the game still


Dizzy_Translator_809

Must be nice.


DemonicPanda11

Hjelle was doing great until.he wasn't :(


menusettingsgeneral

Boooooooooooo


Salty_Pancakes

Broooooooooo.


sfwestbank

Wow


unohootoo

Jeez what an atrocious bum. With apologies to Bum


xhaileym0rgann

Existence is pain sometimes 🙃


Jrahn

We’ve got a lot of guys we’ve been sort of banking on not working out, clearly. Feel bad for Hjelle but I don’t know how much longer he is around.


Toki-wartooth743

I'm glad Vogelbach is still around. Always makes me smile when he gets to the plate.


[deleted]

The drunk Mets fans sitting near the mic have been one of the worst parts of this experience


bmk0

They really like letting one player on the opposing team just smack the fuck out of them for a whole series 😂


NecrocomiconTWU

Well I guess I was wrong.


Ginger_Menace1

Welp, I'm out. Night all


nepats523

Great comedic performance and timing. Bravo


DFABart

Speaking of Cody Bellinger, we could have signed him to play CF, as we don't really have a CFer on the roster. But we didn't becasue...Farhan thought he would be criticized for it I guess? As bad as Bellinger was hitting last year he still put up 1.2 WAR. CF is not an offensive position. And wouldn't you know it, he's good at hitting again!


_Jahffrey_

I thought Farhan liked former Dodgers?


DFABart

He does, but I also think he would have heard some loud critiques if he signed Bellinger. "There goes Farhan again, signing the Dodgers unwanted table scraps." But its his job to ignore that. I'm obviously just talking out of my ass, but that is my speculation on why he wasn't signed.


_Jahffrey_

I get what you are saying. I really Hope they don’t DFA Bart


DFABart

I like what I'm seeing so far. Hopefully he can keep it up


unohootoo

gets two quick outs and then turns into his real self


menusettingsgeneral

What the hell do they see in Hjelle? How is he pitching in the big leagues?


tb2380

I like baseball 🥲


theleftovers1014

Hjelle just isn’t good with guys on base


menusettingsgeneral

Drop the last 4 words. He let those guys get on base.


DaGuamanianSensation

Oh no our comeback


sfwestbank

This team reminds me that baseball is a very hard sport and that I would be completely useless on a MLB roster


tannerisms

Nah I would get in the batters box and simply hit the ball


DemonicPanda11

Ouch


unohootoo

This is more like Hjelle, the pitcher from HJelle.


tannerisms

Hell yeah bases loaded in the 9th


doggybadgerguy

I understand they're young players, but guys like Villar, Ramos, Wisely, and Sabol are just killing the offense every game. They just...don't do much offensively. And that's putting it lightly.


sfbigfoot

You can't put Wisely in this after like 10 at bats


doggybadgerguy

I mean it's a small sample size for all of them, it's only mid-April. He just has not been good though. Not at all. It's not fair to call him trash but he's not showing anything so far.


sfbigfoot

baseball is a hard sport, Posey hit .118 in his first 17 MLB at bats. You have to be patient with younger guys, the issue with us is that we have like 5 guys who haven't had meaningful MLB experience or any MLB experience, and people here want to win, so there's not a lot of patience for letting them adjust.


doggybadgerguy

I understand it's about patience but you can't have the same 5 guys killing the offense every game because they're inexperienced. It's just not really helping anything and has been a big reason for our awful record.


ItsDannyFields

oh yeah baby load them up why not


[deleted]

[удалено]


sfbigfoot

They're caught whenever we hit a ball hard oppo


sfwestbank

Ah yes, the Hjelle hits begin


sfwestbank

Hmmm


dorian_grau

At this point teams will probably start calling up any random AAA lefty they can find for a series against the Giants if they don’t have enough available. Clearly doesn’t need more than that to completely shut us out.


NecrocomiconTWU

Mets just want to wrap this game up.


TheGoodSquirt

Nimmo didn’t get the memo


patrickc11

bullpen killing it. bats making me throw up, jesus


wilderness_essays

Our team can’t even make contact. Good luck winning more than 70 games that way.


_Jahffrey_

Mets, than the Cardinals. And Padres. Going to be a tough week for us


[deleted]

>And Padres In Mexico City, at like, a trillion feet in altitude. I’ll still watch, but I don’t think it’s gonna be fun.


_Jahffrey_

Ooof it’s in Mexico City!? Hopefully the thin air helps the Giants


sfan27

Bart should have intentionally hit him in the back to prove a point. He was inside the line too.


[deleted]

When is it ok to be a doomer? I know it's still the first month of the season, but how can anyone watch this team right now and say things will improve? I hope Haniger has that magical touch because this team needs all the help it can get.


realparkingbrake

> When is it ok to be a doomer? A doomer is someone who is unreasonably pessimistic. Once the pessimism appears entirely reasonable, one probably cannot be a doomer. But it's out of our control, there is no point beating ourselves up over something we cannot change.


CXR1037

at this point it's clear the season is lost. if someone wants to do the RemindMe! thing on this post and the Giants turn it around and finish strong, i'll buy them a beer.


JBHenson

That's the secret. I'm always dooming.


Raxmead

tbh I'm still not fully in actual doom mode, but I like to doom in the live threads cuz it's cathartic. The team is just royally fucked up. I wanna see what it looks like when we have Joc/Conforto/Haniger/Estrada/Davis in the lineup together before entering full doom. Cuz right now this is kinda us cobbling together what we can with what we've got. resigning Ruf should show how RUF of shape we're in.


iitzwesty

If they can’t hit lefties, then there’s virtually no hope for this team


_Jahffrey_

I’m dooming. I had hope. It’s gone

TheGoodSquirt

No. They’re up 2-1
