Crawford released.  I wish he retired after last season.

The Giants lost, 6-2 at home, to the last-place-of-all-time White Sox. Stanford's Erik Miller gave up three earned runs in 2/3rds of an inning, allowing five baserunners. Logan Webb gave up two runs in eight innings pitched. Bivens gave up an unearned run.

Outfield play was comical today. McCray won't make anyone forget Garry Maddox...or Angel Pagan in CF. 28,375 at the old ballyard.

The Giants have 11 series left, 10 of which come against teams with a winning record. Don't think we'll see 26-12...maybe 12-26.

Didn’t see the game.  McCray is supposed to be an elite defensive CF.  That’s his ticket.  Certainly not his bat.

My take is that he has a knack for turning routine fly balls into spectacular catches. Doesn't take great routes, gets turned around, late jumps, etc.

Based on a small sample, his fielding percentage is .947, he has a -8 Rtot, and his range factor is slightly below average for center fielders. I had a ton more confidence in Lee and Matos than I do in McCray.

Had the game on in the background the other day. Mike Krukow was certainly singing his praises, specifically noting that the routes he takes are perfect and that he gets quick jumps on the ball. . . .
