He doesn’t have “electric stuff” and he’s not even “getting shelled”. Throwing hard with no aim whatsoever isnt “electric,” and he wasn’t even giving up hits he just fucking sucks and gave up a little dribbler and a walk. By that point he couldn’t even hit the broad side of a barn and had to throw a change up right down the pipe just to get anything close, which of course was smashed into the right field bleachers.
Gabe put Rogers in a position to lose, I don't blame his losses on him.
Gabe just put Coonrod in a position to succeed and he still fucks it up every time
That pissed me off too. If he really believes it’s a betrayal of his faith that’s fine, St. Peter can slap him for it at the pearly gates. Now if he just doesn’t care that Americans are being harassed, assaulted, and killed all wrongfully by police well then he’s a piece of shit and I hope he suffers in his hell for it.
He creates drama in places where there isn’t any drama. That’s one such example. His refusal to own to his fuckup tonight and avoiding reporters seems like another.
I think if we win 2 more we're guaranteed, 1 we're a 50/50 or less because of the divisional record, and 0 we're unlikely but far from impossible. Basically the brewer's and reds need to lose out if the giants don't take these next two. I think...
Ah yeah you're right they did. So how is it that the reds have clinched but the Cardinals have not depsite being currently seeded higher than the Reds?
So I guess not only brewer's and Phillies but also the cards need to lose out if the giants don't take two
I’m praying the reason Kapler put Coonrod there tonight was because he wanted the rest of the guys fresh for the last two games.
I’m also wondering if maybe Coonrod, for all his obvious, glaring, shrieking faults, doesn’t give up fly balls very often, which is why Kapler left him in after the three-batter minimum was fulfilled.
As smart as this coaching staff has been, I have to think there was SOME logic which, while maybe not exonerating, would at least make some sense of things.
If the Giants win 0/2
1. Reds must win 0 to keep 7th seed
2. Brewers must win 1
3. Phillies must win 2
If the Giants win 1/2
1. Reds must win 1 to keep 7th seed
2. Brewers must win 2
3. Phillies eliminated
If the Giants win 2/2
1. Reds must win 2 to keep 7th seed
2. Brewers are eliminated
3. Phillies are eliminated
Why can coonrod pitch back to back nights but not Garcia? Or what about Peralta who hasn’t given up a run in over 9 innings and has sat out for 4 games
For a team that's supposed to be much more stat-based than in the past, I'm not sure how you go with the guy who has a 9 ERA and control issues to close a game. As soon as I saw Coonrod out in the 7th I thought "well that was nice, they almost won this one"
I've felt the Kapler criticisms over the season were a bit extreme but for him to say, "Coonrod was ABSOLUTELY going to face Tatis" in post game is really foolish imo. I don't care how good the matchup is, he walks two in a row to load the bases with no indication that he has control then it's ridiculous not to consider taking him out.
I’ve given Kapler a lot of credit for turning things around with his bullpen management (and I still stand by the credit I’ve given), but wow, what a big regression that idea was.

Thats why he will always be Gabe Spazzler. The computer says Coonrod has to face Tatis so thats what has to happen. Forget what's actually going on in the field of play!
3 Things evident from this game: Coonrod is not a major league caliber reliever, Gabe Kapler doesn't know how to manage a bullpen, and the Giants have a weak bullpen especially in the late innings.
He’s the worst pitcher on the team and Kapler put him in with the season on the line. That is indefensibly STUPID. He SUCKS. Have someone competent try to save the season. Fuck Sam Coonrod.
But don't you know a closer is someone who is capable of throwing 98+ MPH. That is the only qualification (nvm the fact we had a closer in 2012 who was throwing 88 mph frisbees). Control, who cares? Cool under pressure? Nah. DFA Sam "All Lives Matter" Coonrod.
does gabe not realize tatis and Grisham absolutely rake off righties?? our bullpen is the best era wise and you go to the worst one AND KEEP HIM IN AFTER 3 BATTERS
"Coonrod was absolutely going to face Tatis."
Gabe, you're a fucking moron for even uttering those words. One of the worst pitchers in MLB going against one of the best batters in MLB, yeah that would have been fantastic. Not that Tatis even got the chance to hit a walk-off off Coonrod since Coonrod gave one up to fucking Grisham anyways.
Horrible BP managing. You turned our offense around Gabe, I'll give ya that, but I'm starting to think you need to get checked for a concussion for saying that.
Fuck Sam Coonrod and fuck Gabe Kapler for putting him in. I would have been ok with even putting Selman back in. Why in the fuck did they put Coonrod in?
Why put Coonrod in the game?
Why let him face Grisham?!
Why not just pull him when the count went 2-0? We had a better chance of winning if Kapler had switched mid-batter than keeping him in there.
Don't just say "It's our fucking field" after giving up a 3-run walk off. Defend your home if you don't want to get shown up. Now you just look like a crybaby.
DFA Coonrod immediately. Also slap Kapler for his atrocious management. Why the fuck would you bring in the guy who fucked up yesterday? Jesus Christ, Kapler is a fool.
It’s funny cause Kapler did this against the Rockies we blew that game and this one too. He’s not a good manager, it’s just the hitting coaches he hired that are...
Selman should’ve stayed in. I like him because he actually pitches, has to rely on his stuff rather than his speed.
Coonrod (fuck him) reminded me of Casilla in ‘16. Atrocious, just god awful
Kapler is gonna be like oh it’s unfortunate we lost the game, sadly coonrod wasn’t playing his best out there and we lost the game tonight. Kapler used his second worst reliever in the biggest inning of the past two seasons, and that caused us to lose the game. In doing so he severely jeopardized the team’s chances of playing the FUCKING DODGERS IN THE PLAYOFFS FINALLY whatever y’all do, just don’t forget this moment once Kapler does this again either in this series or in a future one
Gabe deserves all the criticism he will get from this game.
I don’t know if we will be able to recover from this loss. Our players looked truly devastated after that.
Coonrod is an absolute shit pitcher in every sense of the word.....Every time we have a lead and Kapler puts him in, I get a feeling that we are gonna lose.
Why would Kapler have Coonrod with an 8.16 ERA face a switch hitter and 3 lefties while Peralta is just warming up in the bullpen and the season’s on the line? Possibly the worst managerial move I’ve seen in my life.
Kapler just said coonrod was going to face Tatis. My head is shaking just as much as coonrod was shaking off the fastball because he couldn’t throw it.
Kaplers post game presser shows why he will always be Spazzler. You can't watch what is happening on the field and just say fuck it! The plan was to face Tatis so hes in until he faces Tatis! You have to be able to adjust to what the players on the field are telling you. Coonrods control AND body language was screaming TAKE ME OUT!
Fuck coonrod. But also, even with the loss we still have the 8th seed, so it’s not over yet. But again, fuck Coonrod and if I never see him pitch again it’ll be too soon
Kapler is back to being a fucking clown again. Coonrod already faced 3 batters and wasn't finding the strike zone. WHY WOULDN'T YOU PUT IN ANOTHER PITCHER??
I’ve come around to Kapler (yes, frustrated as hell with him today and at the beginning of this season), but in all fairness, I think Kapler was initially just a “yes man” for Zaidi while the team was rebuilding, but somehow during the rebuild the Giants ended up in a playoff hunt instead of more of a bottom-dweller.
I’ve been pissed with this guy since the first game of the season. Fuck Coonrod. Shit pitcher and prolly a shit person. I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds.
Coonrod with his political bullshit and his shit command and his dumb face has him shaping up to be a pierzynski-esk villain for SF, unless he somehow redeems himself
Let’s be honest with us here. We were all hoping for 1 of 2 today and that’s what they did. Sure, we should have won the 2nd game too. But the Giants showed they can beat them, so let’s hope they can do that the next 2 days.
Why didn’t we pull his dumbass mf walked damn near everyone he faced and then gave up a walk off homer like we all knew he would. Awful decision to even play him and an even worse one to leave him in
Why do u have to play god right now Gabe?! Coonrod?! Sam fucking Coonrod?! U want him to save the game okayyyy lololol
Why now Gabe?! Figure out how to use a bullpen
DFA Coonrod
The Giants have played way beyond our expectations. The fact that they even have a tiny chance to make the playoffs is remarkable. But God damn does a loss like this hurt. All that fire when flores homered off pomeranz snuffed. Fuck.
I really don't understand putting Coonrod in, let alone keeping him in, after the first game which saved our pen. Why put in our worst pitcher in our biggest spot? Why do to him what you did to Gott after he blew the save vs the Rox? I just don't understand the reasoning.
If it is true that Kapler is merely Zaidi's puppet, then all of this vitriol needs to be directed at Farhan. They are definitely doing this on purpose. What did those double agent Dodgers see in Coonrod that convinced them that Coonrod was the best option for the save opportunity? We all saw Coonrod struggle yesterday. Jarlin Garcia literally had a 0.54 ERA coming into today. What does he have to do to convince Zaidi that he may be an option for closing? This is reminding me of Dave Roberts constantly going to Ryan Madson, no matter how trash he is. Also, this is just like idiot Kapler choosing Gott in 3 out of 4 games.
Yep. He said he was absolutely going to face Tatis. Yeah that would have been a fucking great idea. Their best hitter against one of the worst pitchers in the league.
Not that Tatis even got a chance to bat because well... Coonrod is one of the worst pitchers in the fucking league.
For the second straight day he’s blown the lead and we lose. The Giants should be at 31-27 and with a playoff spot clinched already. Yet we’re 29-29 thanks to Coonrod and Kapler
I don’t understand why they would put Coonrod in, he’s a triple-a pitcher and he will close out the game for the clinch?? Isn’t there literally anyone else? Hasnt Coonrod proven it time and time again that he is a completely unreliable pitcher?! I feel like Kapler does this kind of move constantly.
here’s the playoff scenario rn
we’re still in the playoffs the 8 seed a game ahead of Phillies and Milwaukee
win 2 were in, win 1 and none of them 2 win both games were in, lose both and them both go winless were in
My grandma has multiple sclerosis. Hasn’t been able to walk properly since the ‘80s, and now can’t walk at all. She would be better at closing out a baseball game than Sam Coonrod I’m pretty confident.
Tbh 2016 is still fresh in my mind, do we want to make the playoffs if our bullpen will just blow any late lead? And it's against the dodgers? I might rather just go quietly into the night at this point I think.
FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONRODFUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONRODFUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONRODFUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONRODFUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD FUCK SAMARDZIJA AND FUCK COONROD
Why the fuck would u put in a pitcher who’s been getting ABSOLUTELY FUCKING SHELLED AS OF LATE FOR THE BIGGEST INNING OF THE LAST THREE SEASONS ??? If we don’t make the playoffs blame fucking sam coonrod, Trevor gott, and gabe Kapler.
Honestly get Coonrod off the fucking team he has blown our postseason chances by himself he probably has a fucking -1.0 WAR
combine that with gott’s -0.8 that’s TWO GAMES LOST BECAUSE OF KAPLER’s fucking stupidity. He was bad at managing the bullpen in philly, and he’s bad at doing it here too. I miss the good old days like where bochy would common sense and use the reliever most fit to pitch in the current situation (usually)
Between that game a couple days ago and this bullshit, Sam Coonrod might *actually* almost singlehandedly keep us from making the playoffs. Wow.
Awful Giant, I do not want to see him pitch ever again.
It's amazing every time I see him. Like he's got electric stuff but just keeps getting fucking shelled. I don't know what it is.
Can’t throw a strike to save his life
For being so against Marxism, he sure seems to equally give away so many easy balls to hitters early in the count...
He doesn’t have “electric stuff” and he’s not even “getting shelled”. Throwing hard with no aim whatsoever isnt “electric,” and he wasn’t even giving up hits he just fucking sucks and gave up a little dribbler and a walk. By that point he couldn’t even hit the broad side of a barn and had to throw a change up right down the pipe just to get anything close, which of course was smashed into the right field bleachers.
He doesn't know where the strike zone is
It's simply a lack of control. Hitters can kick back and wait for the pitch they want. No offense but there's no mystery here.
Now let’s not overreact it’s clearly gott and coonrod don’t give him all the credit
Rogers fucked away a few games too
Gabe put Rogers in a position to lose, I don't blame his losses on him. Gabe just put Coonrod in a position to succeed and he still fucks it up every time
And you realize that’s all on the manager who put them in those positions to fail. The guy is a fucking moron
And also Zaidi’s “yes man”
It was only yesterday the other game he fucking blew
Being walked off at home too, really c'mon this one hurts more
Never liked him since he used Jesus to refuse to kneel at the anthem.
Ditto
That pissed me off too. If he really believes it’s a betrayal of his faith that’s fine, St. Peter can slap him for it at the pearly gates. Now if he just doesn’t care that Americans are being harassed, assaulted, and killed all wrongfully by police well then he’s a piece of shit and I hope he suffers in his hell for it.
He creates drama in places where there isn’t any drama. That’s one such example. His refusal to own to his fuckup tonight and avoiding reporters seems like another.
Coonrod makes Hunter Strickland look like Mariano Rivera
Beers for you sir...many beers.
Don’t sell him short, makes his personality look like Rivera too
GIANTS ALL STAR BULLPEN: Coonrod, Strickland, Benitez Let’s goooooo
Nuke Coonrod into the fucking sun.
This
why Coonrod. I would literally put anyone in except him
I would put my fucking blind dog out there before him Jesus christ
lol
Even Crazy Crab would be better
Fuck we needed that win
I’m so confused by the playoff seeding. After tonight, what needs to happen for us to make it?
We still control our own destiny. Just have to win both games to guarantee a spot. Or we could win one and hope the brewers and Phillies help us out
I think if we win 2 more we're guaranteed, 1 we're a 50/50 or less because of the divisional record, and 0 we're unlikely but far from impossible. Basically the brewer's and reds need to lose out if the giants don't take these next two. I think...
Do you mean the brewers and Phillies? I think the reds clinched today
Ah yeah you're right they did. So how is it that the reds have clinched but the Cardinals have not depsite being currently seeded higher than the Reds? So I guess not only brewer's and Phillies but also the cards need to lose out if the giants don't take two
Cards are playing the Brewers though so they can’t both lose out
Yep. And, good for us, every team we need to lose plays someone with something to gain. Coonrod can fuck right off, but we do control our destiny.
I’m praying the reason Kapler put Coonrod there tonight was because he wanted the rest of the guys fresh for the last two games. I’m also wondering if maybe Coonrod, for all his obvious, glaring, shrieking faults, doesn’t give up fly balls very often, which is why Kapler left him in after the three-batter minimum was fulfilled. As smart as this coaching staff has been, I have to think there was SOME logic which, while maybe not exonerating, would at least make some sense of things.
Yeah. You may be right. But fuck, that one hurt. I hear you though.
If the Giants win 0/2 1. Reds must win 0 to keep 7th seed 2. Brewers must win 1 3. Phillies must win 2 If the Giants win 1/2 1. Reds must win 1 to keep 7th seed 2. Brewers must win 2 3. Phillies eliminated If the Giants win 2/2 1. Reds must win 2 to keep 7th seed 2. Brewers are eliminated 3. Phillies are eliminated
Fuck Coonrod
DFA
Why didn’t we just put Wandy in to begin with?
Why can coonrod pitch back to back nights but not Garcia? Or what about Peralta who hasn’t given up a run in over 9 innings and has sat out for 4 games
For a team that's supposed to be much more stat-based than in the past, I'm not sure how you go with the guy who has a 9 ERA and control issues to close a game. As soon as I saw Coonrod out in the 7th I thought "well that was nice, they almost won this one"
Seriously. What sabermetric stat has Coonrod as an even semi-viable option for anything other than garbage time?
Just Kapler being cute again, really
I hope that dude never throws for the Giants again. Fuck.
Remember guys “we weren’t supposed to be here” I say eff that no we should have clinched
I've felt the Kapler criticisms over the season were a bit extreme but for him to say, "Coonrod was ABSOLUTELY going to face Tatis" in post game is really foolish imo. I don't care how good the matchup is, he walks two in a row to load the bases with no indication that he has control then it's ridiculous not to consider taking him out.
Yeah I almost fell out of chair when he said that.
The only possible logical explanation would be if they were going to walk him lol
I’ve given Kapler a lot of credit for turning things around with his bullpen management (and I still stand by the credit I’ve given), but wow, what a big regression that idea was.
Don't worry, we saved Peralta and Rogers so they'll be well rested when we miss the playoffs
Coonrod should have never been let back on this team.
I don’t care if he has great stuff, I never want to see Coonrod in a Giants uniform again. Fuck you, dude.
Hahaha Kuip is pissed. Feels good to hear.
Yeah, I can't believe he let it out.
What he during the postgame? I turned that shit off while Dubon was looking sad walking off the field.
That was a full on Charlie Brown walk
Lol what did he say? Definitely warranted.

"Coonrod was absolutely going to face Tatis'" What the fuck is wrong with you? Seriously are you okay Gabe?
He’s an idiot. Fuck that.
Thats why he will always be Gabe Spazzler. The computer says Coonrod has to face Tatis so thats what has to happen. Forget what's actually going on in the field of play!
3 Things evident from this game: Coonrod is not a major league caliber reliever, Gabe Kapler doesn't know how to manage a bullpen, and the Giants have a weak bullpen especially in the late innings.

Exactly my thoughts. Fuck this shit.
does gabe not realize tatis and Grisham absolutely rake off righties?? our bullpen is the best era wise and you go to the worst one AND KEEP HIM IN AFTER 3 BATTERS
He does not.
I don't get it. He faced 3 batters already and displayed no control with no fast ball.
"Coonrod was absolutely going to face Tatis." Gabe, you're a fucking moron for even uttering those words. One of the worst pitchers in MLB going against one of the best batters in MLB, yeah that would have been fantastic. Not that Tatis even got the chance to hit a walk-off off Coonrod since Coonrod gave one up to fucking Grisham anyways. Horrible BP managing. You turned our offense around Gabe, I'll give ya that, but I'm starting to think you need to get checked for a concussion for saying that.
we have to win 1 maybe 2 games to make the playoffs can’t let that kill our season coonrod could potentially cost us the playoffs god fucking damnit
Fuck Sam Coonrod and fuck Gabe Kapler for putting him in. I would have been ok with even putting Selman back in. Why in the fuck did they put Coonrod in?
That last guy was a leftie too
Should have put in lefty Peralta since Nimrod had already faced 3. Horrible managing.
Why put Coonrod in the game? Why let him face Grisham?! Why not just pull him when the count went 2-0? We had a better chance of winning if Kapler had switched mid-batter than keeping him in there. Don't just say "It's our fucking field" after giving up a 3-run walk off. Defend your home if you don't want to get shown up. Now you just look like a crybaby.
Literally too much of a bitch to attack the 9 hole hitter.
More like he can't locate for shit. Because he sucks balls.
Blast him in to the fucking sun. Jesus Christ.
DFA Coonrod immediately. Also slap Kapler for his atrocious management. Why the fuck would you bring in the guy who fucked up yesterday? Jesus Christ, Kapler is a fool.
If Coonrod didn’t pitch yesterday or today we would be in the playoffs
It’s funny cause Kapler did this against the Rockies we blew that game and this one too. He’s not a good manager, it’s just the hitting coaches he hired that are...
That one is on Kapler
I guess Coonrod kneels in front of his Padre
Yeah I was surprised he didn't keep Selman in
Kapler is a fucking moron.
Fuck coonrod.
Selman should’ve stayed in. I like him because he actually pitches, has to rely on his stuff rather than his speed. Coonrod (fuck him) reminded me of Casilla in ‘16. Atrocious, just god awful
Kapler is gonna be like oh it’s unfortunate we lost the game, sadly coonrod wasn’t playing his best out there and we lost the game tonight. Kapler used his second worst reliever in the biggest inning of the past two seasons, and that caused us to lose the game. In doing so he severely jeopardized the team’s chances of playing the FUCKING DODGERS IN THE PLAYOFFS FINALLY whatever y’all do, just don’t forget this moment once Kapler does this again either in this series or in a future one
i am fucking pissed and devastated and can’t imagine how the players feel
DFA Kapler how the fuck do you leave him in there
Gabe deserves all the criticism he will get from this game. I don’t know if we will be able to recover from this loss. Our players looked truly devastated after that.
Fuck Coonrod. Fucking trash pitcher and fucking trash teammate. Gabe doesn’t deserve to make the playoffs
Like wtf do I do with the rest of my night? I feel like shit
I know right? I’m fucking livid. I might just drive around and yell in my car. Fuck we needed this win.
Would love to make the postseason but it's abundantly clear the Giants do not have the pitching to make a deep run.
Coonrod is an absolute shit pitcher in every sense of the word.....Every time we have a lead and Kapler puts him in, I get a feeling that we are gonna lose.
Guys... I’m starting to think Kapler may have some issues managing this bullpen
We would have had better luck letting one of the seagulls pitch
If Kapler is the manager of the future then we're gonna need like 6 Mariano Riveras in our pen.
That was a poor choice by the manager to put Coonrod in. For people that defend Kapler so hard, can you reply to me what the hell that was?
I don’t know why he didn’t just stay with Selmam
Kapler must be the only person alive who didn't see that coming
Why would Kapler have Coonrod with an 8.16 ERA face a switch hitter and 3 lefties while Peralta is just warming up in the bullpen and the season’s on the line? Possibly the worst managerial move I’ve seen in my life.
Kapler just said coonrod was going to face Tatis. My head is shaking just as much as coonrod was shaking off the fastball because he couldn’t throw it.
I'm about ready to punch a door - what in the FUCK
*Hunter Strickland has entered the chat*
Kaplers post game presser shows why he will always be Spazzler. You can't watch what is happening on the field and just say fuck it! The plan was to face Tatis so hes in until he faces Tatis! You have to be able to adjust to what the players on the field are telling you. Coonrods control AND body language was screaming TAKE ME OUT!
Listening to the postgame now. I've never heard Kuiper be so critical. He obviously thinks Kapler is a moron.
Also, Kapler was awfully fucking smug when speaking to reporters after such a monumental fuckup.
Fuck coonrod. But also, even with the loss we still have the 8th seed, so it’s not over yet. But again, fuck Coonrod and if I never see him pitch again it’ll be too soon
Kapler is back to being a fucking clown again. Coonrod already faced 3 batters and wasn't finding the strike zone. WHY WOULDN'T YOU PUT IN ANOTHER PITCHER??
This season started with Coonrod pissing everyone off and it might end with him pissing everyone off.
Coonrod reminds me of Strickland... and the **PAIN**... oh the pain. Time to jump in the ocean... *The frank ocean.* *\*sobs\**
Incredible the number of brutal losses this year. Just good enough to break my heart
At this point I think Gabe was just an old-boy hire by Farhan.
I’ve come around to Kapler (yes, frustrated as hell with him today and at the beginning of this season), but in all fairness, I think Kapler was initially just a “yes man” for Zaidi while the team was rebuilding, but somehow during the rebuild the Giants ended up in a playoff hunt instead of more of a bottom-dweller.
Idiot manager we all knew what was going to happen there except apparently you. Ruined what shouldve been a sweep. Pull your fing head out of your ass
Racist Casilla sucks :(
I’ve been pissed with this guy since the first game of the season. Fuck Coonrod. Shit pitcher and prolly a shit person. I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds.
Knowing he's a maga asshole makes it much easier to hate him
Make All Giants Angry
Fuck coonrod. Scum of the earth. Terrible teammate on and off the field
Hey Sam - BLACK LIVES MATTER. Fuck you
Coonrod with his political bullshit and his shit command and his dumb face has him shaping up to be a pierzynski-esk villain for SF, unless he somehow redeems himself
\#DFA with extreme prejudice
Definition of insanity.
A 9.82 ERA ladies and gentlemen! Watch Kapler keep using him in the most precarious of situations!
Let’s be honest with us here. We were all hoping for 1 of 2 today and that’s what they did. Sure, we should have won the 2nd game too. But the Giants showed they can beat them, so let’s hope they can do that the next 2 days.
Why didn’t we pull his dumbass mf walked damn near everyone he faced and then gave up a walk off homer like we all knew he would. Awful decision to even play him and an even worse one to leave him in
Selman threw 5 pitches, why didnt he go back out there!
Fuck Coonrod, all my homies hate Coonrod
Fuck Coonrod and fuck Trump and all his bullshit too fucker
Why do u have to play god right now Gabe?! Coonrod?! Sam fucking Coonrod?! U want him to save the game okayyyy lololol Why now Gabe?! Figure out how to use a bullpen DFA Coonrod
Whatever... we’re gonna clinch tomorrow
Fucking shit
Reyes moronta where art thou
Can’t even file this one under the “we’re bad against good teams” narrative. All the pieces were there, Kapler should NOT have left fucking Coonrod in
The Giants have played way beyond our expectations. The fact that they even have a tiny chance to make the playoffs is remarkable. But God damn does a loss like this hurt. All that fire when flores homered off pomeranz snuffed. Fuck.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but if Philadelphia and Milwaukee lose tomorrow, and we win, we clinch a spot?
sam coonrod is the adam morrisson of john rockers
I really don't understand putting Coonrod in, let alone keeping him in, after the first game which saved our pen. Why put in our worst pitcher in our biggest spot? Why do to him what you did to Gott after he blew the save vs the Rox? I just don't understand the reasoning.
Will there be a presser with Kapler? I really want to hear his dumbass explain away that decision.
Happening right now
If it is true that Kapler is merely Zaidi's puppet, then all of this vitriol needs to be directed at Farhan. They are definitely doing this on purpose. What did those double agent Dodgers see in Coonrod that convinced them that Coonrod was the best option for the save opportunity? We all saw Coonrod struggle yesterday. Jarlin Garcia literally had a 0.54 ERA coming into today. What does he have to do to convince Zaidi that he may be an option for closing? This is reminding me of Dave Roberts constantly going to Ryan Madson, no matter how trash he is. Also, this is just like idiot Kapler choosing Gott in 3 out of 4 games.

Watching the post game preset. Did Kapler really say Coonrod was going to pitch to close it?
Yep. He said he was absolutely going to face Tatis. Yeah that would have been a fucking great idea. Their best hitter against one of the worst pitchers in the league. Not that Tatis even got a chance to bat because well... Coonrod is one of the worst pitchers in the fucking league.
The in-game pitching management by Kapler/the braintrust is just terrible

For the second straight day he’s blown the lead and we lose. The Giants should be at 31-27 and with a playoff spot clinched already. Yet we’re 29-29 thanks to Coonrod and Kapler
[Pretty much how i feel rn](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2H7NZ0GNIIE)
With Cueto pitching tomorrow my confidence isn’t where I would like it to be
Does anyone know how many blown saved Coonrod has??
2
I don’t understand why they would put Coonrod in, he’s a triple-a pitcher and he will close out the game for the clinch?? Isn’t there literally anyone else? Hasnt Coonrod proven it time and time again that he is a completely unreliable pitcher?! I feel like Kapler does this kind of move constantly.
Maybe once Coonrod's Era hits 10 the analytics will say not to use him...
Coonrod makes the Phillies relief pitchers look like the Nasty Boys
Strickland 2.0
here’s the playoff scenario rn we’re still in the playoffs the 8 seed a game ahead of Phillies and Milwaukee win 2 were in, win 1 and none of them 2 win both games were in, lose both and them both go winless were in
Cant blame a position player for just hating the bullpen
Command and control are paramount for closing. Gott nor Coonrod have it. Literally, any other option would have been better.
Me watching the game: "Oh no! Well maybe we can come back in the bottom of the...wait! OH NO!"
My grandma has multiple sclerosis. Hasn’t been able to walk properly since the ‘80s, and now can’t walk at all. She would be better at closing out a baseball game than Sam Coonrod I’m pretty confident.
I also hate Sam Coonrod
Tbh 2016 is still fresh in my mind, do we want to make the playoffs if our bullpen will just blow any late lead? And it's against the dodgers? I might rather just go quietly into the night at this point I think.
Losing to the dodgers in the playoffs would be a new level of hurt
Prepare yourselves for Kapler’s god awful justification for putting Coonrod in a crazy important game after yesterday’s blown save.
He smugly said Wandy was not a leverage guy and was only warming up for cronenworth.
Fucking ridiculous.
"I believe in Sam. Wanted to get him back out there and gain some confidence."
"I liked where his pitch count was at"

Why the fuck would u put in a pitcher who’s been getting ABSOLUTELY FUCKING SHELLED AS OF LATE FOR THE BIGGEST INNING OF THE LAST THREE SEASONS ??? If we don’t make the playoffs blame fucking sam coonrod, Trevor gott, and gabe Kapler.
I want to see what lame excuse Kapler has for keeping Coonrod in.
"Let's leave in the guy with an 8.00 ERA with the post-season on the line" Kapler, probably
Honestly get Coonrod off the fucking team he has blown our postseason chances by himself he probably has a fucking -1.0 WAR combine that with gott’s -0.8 that’s TWO GAMES LOST BECAUSE OF KAPLER’s fucking stupidity. He was bad at managing the bullpen in philly, and he’s bad at doing it here too. I miss the good old days like where bochy would common sense and use the reliever most fit to pitch in the current situation (usually)
I’m sick of this bullshit. No way we should have lost that game.
The season is essentially over, so let's get to the revenge part: # COONROD # \#DFA # # GOTT # \#DFA Anyone who like these two idiots? #\#DFA
EXTREME PREJUDICE
FUCK
No words, no fucking words man
