Meanwhile, in AZ, another Giants' loss.  Cueto very mediocre.  Team still can't hit.

In post-game, I heard Papa say that the Giants "by far" rely on the long ball more than any other team to score runs.  This comports with my gut feel that the team SUCKS at advancing runners and scoring without a hit (let alone without a bomb).  Happened again tonight.  (1st and 2nd, no outs . . . no runs scored).

Danger, Will Robinson!!

Yeah, they need to figure out how to score without HRs.  Still it’s 4 games. They are going to have a dry spell.  I don’t pay much attention to Dodgers and Pads. Both will pass and finish higher than the Giants. I concentrate on the other divisions. Particularly, what team is in second. Cause in the end, the Giants somewhat realistic shot is the second WC. Right now those two teams are the Nats (Giants lead by 9 1/2) and Cubs (8 1/2).

So you can get a front line starter on a rental. Price is Bart, Slater and a low level prospect. Assuming Giants don’t go into the tank between now and July 31 ( they have something like 22 games till then) Do you do it?
