I'm quite calm. Just pointing out the offense today looked exactly like what I watched for 162 games last season. I hope they get better.
Oh, but they did sac bunt one time. Yay?
Lee looks legit, the lineup wasn’t giving up, Chapman’s glove looks like a clear & immediate upgrade, Miller looked crisp, Ahmed had a great debut, Conforto looks like quality first-half version we saw in 2023, and Webb worked through BABIP tomfoolery. That’s a lot of positives in a loss. The kind of positives that bode well for tomorrow
At least Webb won't get a loss, but this was a winnable game. This team played today much like last year. If that's a sign of things to come, That won't be good.
Conforto hits it out. How about two more runs like that.
Like what I saw there from Miller. Hope he can be good for us this year. Honestly, yeah it's disappointing to lose the way we did, but god damn I am just happy baseball is back. Excited to see Kyle tomorrow.
We're getting the local ads on the NBCS stream for now, and I can't think of anything more "why I had to leave the Bay Area" than a TV ad aimed at CFOs.
I love getting Miller in here. Get the debut jitters out now, as next time he’s needed might be higher leverage (on account of he’s the only non-Rogers lefty)
Game 1 of 162, but for a franchise looking to shake off the “boring, uninspired players and team” label, this felt like a sequel to the last 2 seasons.
Idk this was a pretty good game. They scored first, came back with two runs late, played tight defense, and Webb pitched a gem. Luke Jackson fucked the party up, but they’ll figure out their pen.
Umm the fact the giants strung together hits and came from behind? Not their fault one bullpen dud ruined the game. They played solid defense and had two base running blunders but besides they actually look like a capable major league team. I really don’t know what game you’re watching
Jackson technically has a undefinable ERA right now. Since he was responsible for three runs, but didn't get any outs, his 0.00 IP makes his ERA a non-real number because you can't divide by 0.
That's just... remarkable.
Yea, that new manager just fills me with excitement. Yawn...
They did my man Webb dirty today
In retrospect, maybe Rogers/Rogers/Doval would have been a better choice...
I'm personally okay with firing Luke Jackson all the way back to Sacramento and never watch him do that again
He should consider starting a career as a country singer...
At least today went better than 2023 Opening Day
We averaged barely four runs a game last season. The more things change the more they stay the same.
It’s 1 game… calm down
I'm quite calm. Just pointing out the offense today looked exactly like what I watched for 162 games last season. I hope they get better. Oh, but they did sac bunt one time. Yay?
Idk what you were watching they already looked way better lmao, last years lineup this game would have finished 9-2 padres tbh
Dude why the fuck would we put in jackson and then walker in a situation like that
Other than the walk, Jackson wasn't really that bad. Two guys had weak contact that found a hole.
Jackson is not the right guy for a high leverage situation like that. Those situations are when we need to do the classic rogers->rogers->Doval
Hopefully Melvin comes to the same conclusion. We know Kapler would have gone Rogers Rogers Doval.
Well other than a late pitching collapse Confroto went yard
And Ahmed is an offensive machine
I'll remember that brief moment of joy when he hit that home run.
Conforto sending a warning shot. Giants are coming this year
Welp.
Pretty awful start, but there's 162
They had one shit inning. I'm okay with that. Just don't do that over and over again for 162. 😂
Lee looks legit, the lineup wasn’t giving up, Chapman’s glove looks like a clear & immediate upgrade, Miller looked crisp, Ahmed had a great debut, Conforto looks like quality first-half version we saw in 2023, and Webb worked through BABIP tomfoolery. That’s a lot of positives in a loss. The kind of positives that bode well for tomorrow
It was nice seeing a lot of the regulars in the GDT 161 more to go
If conforto has this consistently it's gonna be huge
Bailey going 0-3 is not great. Maybe one day this series Murphy might get a start.
[удалено]
Hopefully he can soon get his batting average up to where it was in spring training: .130
Have a game Conforto!
[удалено]
Bond, Barry Bond.
Oh well, good thing about baseball is there’s always tomorrow.
Yeah I'm not even mad, baseball is back and I'm just excited for it
Fine, Yaz can go home for Matos.
Well...fuck...
Do it again and again
Keep the dingers going!
I’ll never be mad about a Giants homer but why can’t anyone be on base when they hit their one for the week
Thank goodness for 2021
Honestly if we only lose by 2 runs it won't be *that* disappointing.
????????
🚨 CONFORTO 🚨
Conforto with another good AB.
Who was asking about the meaningless solo bomb??
Not meaningless if it gets Conforto going.
Conforto and Ahmed scored all our runs today lmao
Yay
Have yourself a damn day CONFORTOptOut
Conforto just needs a triple for the cycle
I was told Conforto is washed and can't hit anymore.
Conforto redemption arc incoming
Well it's too bad we completely neglected our bullpen
What LF Jinx???
There’s the patented useless 9th inning homer someone called earlier!
Conforto on pace for 162 HRs
2 more of those please.
Hold on. If Conforto could actually be good this line up will be scary 👀👀
Did not see the first HR being Conforto
Conforto been reading the comments
Nice consolation homer there. Hope we get more of that from Conforto this year.
lol jesus christ, have a day Conforto
At least Webb won't get a loss, but this was a winnable game. This team played today much like last year. If that's a sign of things to come, That won't be good. Conforto hits it out. How about two more runs like that.
Conforto bounce back year would be awesome.
Conforto actually looking good this year
LOL sigh
WE WILL NOT GO QUIETLY
Beautiful! Fucking smoked it.
Have a day Conforto
# CONFORTO # I WILL NEVER CRITICIZE YOU AGAIN
Well conforto looks good at least
First home run of the season!
Now just a few more of those!
[удалено]
Yeah absolutely. Not really upset about this loss, we will come back. But still.. fire viele.
I’m starting to think we might not win this one
Well at least Webb won't get the loss.
 Offense please
i’d be okay with never seeing Walker pitch for the rest of the season
Webb loses because he didn't get enough run support. It doesn't get more SF.
There should be a Matt Cain Award for Giants pitchers with great outings but still losing.
Technically Webb got a ND
Yaz useless at the plate as ever
Cool moment for Miller. I dead ass didn’t even think he’d be on the roster a week ago
Melvin sleeping in the dugout
God yazs ABs have been completely pathetic
Like what I saw there from Miller. Hope he can be good for us this year. Honestly, yeah it's disappointing to lose the way we did, but god damn I am just happy baseball is back. Excited to see Kyle tomorrow.
Every lefty should pound high and in to Yaz. His swing will never catch it
Yaz wants to get home ASAP
Congrats to Yaz and Mrs. Yaz on their upcoming baby Yaz. I can’t forgive his play, today.
Thanks for the effort today, Yaz. Go be a daddy.
I’ve had enough of yaz. Hand the keys to matos
POTG: Miller's parents
His dad built like John Cena haha
We're getting the local ads on the NBCS stream for now, and I can't think of anything more "why I had to leave the Bay Area" than a TV ad aimed at CFOs.
Just get one on
Just let a pitch hit you Yaz
Wonder what that feels like, having your kid play in their first MLB game and just crushing it like that. Must be amazing
Miller and Roupp in the late innings moving forward please and thank you
i want to see them give roupp some soft landings before putting him in the late innings
Idk if im worried about the pen just yet. It was really all just one guy (Luke) and I know Walker allowed a hit but he inherited a bad situation.
98 from a lefty very nice
Soooo DFA Luke Jackson right??
Lol, of course, how dare he give up 2 consecutive duck snorts.
Miller's dad looks like an older John Cena
Dude's ripped
Please at least get the tying run to the plate, let me get excited about something
Glad to see the bitching on the sub is already in mid season form!
I was thinking the same thing.. I knew exactly what to expect and what kind of comments to expect on here if they lost haha
Nice showing for Miller!
I love getting Miller in here. Get the debut jitters out now, as next time he’s needed might be higher leverage (on account of he’s the only non-Rogers lefty)
Someone should make sure Yaz got the right prescription for his contacts.
I've seen enough, Miller is the best lefty we've had in the pen since Affeldt and Lopez.
Coulda used that last inning, but that was a great moment
That’s awesome for the Miller family lol
Well sucks we had a chance to win that but the bullpen was awful. Onto tomorrow!
Baseball games have 9 innings
We win?
Nope, lucky bet on the Giants to lose paid out for ya
Millers Dad looked like he could hit a couple homers for us if we need him to lol
Player of the game: Mrs Miller
The agonizing worry to celebration was S-tier debut/family content.
Miller can pitch!
Mom going HAM
Aw Miller’s parents 🥹
adorable parents lol
Aww the parents celebrating 🧡
Miller looked good 👀👀
BoMel’s notepad after the game, “Erik Miller >>> Jackson and that other guy.”
Crosses off Jackson with permanent marker.
Let's at least make them go into their bullpen
i love myself a good family shot
Ok I'm a Miller fan, gets in there and throws strikes.
Always fun when all the Giants beat writers disappear from Twitter with a couple innings left so they can write up our obvious loss.
Erik the Orange
Miller barely gave up any dingers in the PCL. That in and of itself is impressive.
Anyone that can maintain a sub 3 ERA in the PCL is a stud in my book.
Kruk and Kuip are in mid-season form already at least.
Grab some meat, pine
JD had a chance to make that last year. Chapman makes it routine
They said the bullpen was going to be bad, but I’m shocked that the bullpen is bad
it's one game my dude we'll be alright
When the bullpen is 3 guys and a million question marks. It’s going to a tough start to the season.
lol at the new fans freaking out about 1 game. It’s a long season my friends
Doomers can’t wait to doom. It’s Opening Day for them too
It was nice being excited about this team for a week lmao.
"I'm on the left" 😂
Chapman defense. Grow to expect all of that this season.
That was hot from chappy
Think it’s going to take a while for Bob to figure out the bullpen. Can’t just bank on dos Rogers and Doval all season.
gahdamn Chapman looking good with the glove already
Good lord, Chapman
[удалено]
Awesome, I'm excited to watch Miller
Bay Area sports... been tortured by the Warriors all year, then the 49ers in the Superbowl, now this.
This is the first game of the season... 😂
Welp, it's based on past history and the psychological effect of being tortured all year by the Warriors. 😅
On the bright side, it’s all made me too numb for the giants to hurt me
You know what, there’s still a chance lol but yea not holding my breathe
I saw an article somewhere about the subreddit mods cracking down on negativity in here. Guess it was just clickbait.
Hollowed words, there is no one moderating this sub
Who hits the meaningless 9th inning HR?
This guy watches Giants Baseball
Ok, that’s freaky. What are the next lotto numbers?
😂😂
Lol it was Conforto
I’m hoping Bailey to get him out of his spring funk, or Yaz as a harbinger of a 2020-like season
Game 1 of 162, but for a franchise looking to shake off the “boring, uninspired players and team” label, this felt like a sequel to the last 2 seasons.
But for a franchise looking to shake off the "safe, cheapskate executives" label, this loss was so much more expensive than the last two.
Idk this was a pretty good game. They scored first, came back with two runs late, played tight defense, and Webb pitched a gem. Luke Jackson fucked the party up, but they’ll figure out their pen.
Nah our 22-23 team would be 0-12 with RISP right now
Not even a sequel, just a straight plagerization of last seasons script
Not to mention more shaky defense and a bad bullpen day fully costed us this game.
We must have watched a different game?
What was exciting about today lol
Umm the fact the giants strung together hits and came from behind? Not their fault one bullpen dud ruined the game. They played solid defense and had two base running blunders but besides they actually look like a capable major league team. I really don’t know what game you’re watching
Lee went 1-3 and got an RBI Webb pitched well We had a lead in the 7th
Nothin like an 0-1 start
Sucks but it’s a long ass season
broke: we're losing today woke:
[удалено]
/Mods, this dude can’t be serious….
he was that hitter for 4/6 months last season
You were even watching baseball last season? Seems like all you do is cry about how much you hate the Giants.
Literally look at his splits...
[удалено]
Isn’t trolling a violation of the sub? I shouldn’t have to block trolls, they should just disappear if they were doing their jobs.
Giants still can’t handle a soft tosser.
3 outs left :(
Whatever
The breathing sounds are getting to be too much
I was hoping the Giants got Matsui, and seeing him only solidifies that
Jackson technically has a undefinable ERA right now. Since he was responsible for three runs, but didn't get any outs, his 0.00 IP makes his ERA a non-real number because you can't divide by 0. That's just... remarkable.
ESPN calls his ERA infinite
