Ah just a month ago all knew the Padres were better than the Giants lol
The season run has been amazing, whether you believe pixie dust has been part of it or not.
Given the way the team has played (and won), it would be a crying shame if the Giants did not get to play a real playoff series. A one-and-done WC game would be an injustice, imo. Get to a real playoff series, and it's all gravy.
Still a month to go. And Gausman, your ace, on the hill tonight. If he recaptures the splitter, then he can re-establish himself as the ace (though I've heard a lot of folks already pencil in Webb as Game 1 or WC game starter). I have a similar reaction to that debate: still a month to go.
P.S. The Mets . . . a headscratcher. Were brutalized (2-11) by Giants and Dodgers. You look at that infield alone (Alonso, Baez, Lindor, and Davis/Villar at 3B) and wonder why they're not better. Having DeGrom and another pitcher on IL has really hurt. Even still, they are in a major funk right now and seemingly can do no right.
