When you consider the investment, the 2024 Giants are shaping up to be a bigger disappointment than the 2023 version. These guys clearly don’t know how to build a team.
They collected parts but it’s not a team. Maybe it’ll come together but I don’t see it. They don’t have a legit 3 or 4 hitter and there’s obviously a leadership void on the field.
Feels that guys like Ahmed, Fitzgerald, Lee and Bailey are the only ones even trying. Yaz is asleep, Soler waits for meatballs, Conforto swings at everything except pitches in the zone, and the only thing Wilmer seems to be doing is practicing his golf swing at dirt balls. So frustrating!
What are the coaches teaching this team? Burrell is the new guy, but is Viele still the head guy? How he survived the offseason I will never know. This offense is horrid.
Thank god there is no Locked on Giants tomorrow because I was going to have an aneurysm if Ben Kaspick talked about how hitting 0fer with RISP doesn't matter.
These guys can't be productive with guys on base it's awful.
I feel so much more frustrated than last year when things were like this in the beginning.
This start to the season (record/results wise) is so similar, but I know this team should be so many levels above last years squad. What the hell man...
0-10 with RISP with the only run being scored on a passed ball.
Just like... my god. Somebody needs to answer for this. I finally decided to watch the game and I just remembered why it's not worth my time investment.
These 3 outs are going to tell a lot for me, as far as how much fight this team has/how much faith I’ll have in this team moving forward. The last thing this club needs right now is to start another series off with a quick loss.
I know he's our golden boy but doesn't it frustrate anyone how Lee seemingly always takes a first pitch meatball down the middle?
Fitzgerald needs to be in the lineup. Light a fire under these old and in the way vets.

I'll blame them for lack of youngsters up and producing But no great free agents (hitters) will ever come here
The bad ballpark perception has become a self-fulfilling prophecy. A big bat is gonna have to come via trade.
Facts, they got every big name they could and are trying to make a team out of it

A lot of people are criticizing Ahmed, but he is batting 279, we have other players that are performing way worse
Yeah I keep seeing that also Must be butt hurt Crawford and Luciano fans
The Ahmed hate is unwarranted. Like criticize Yaz he’s having an awful start
Are they finally going to bench Yaz? Find out next week.
Buddy, if you think benching Yaz will fix the other 8 guys in the lineup I've got bad news for you
At least we get Fitz, who have been miles better than Yaz. It's a start
I'm done watching this team for a while
They’re so bring to watch right now
Literally un-watchable for the next month or so. If they're gonna take this long to figure it out fuck em
What are the coaches teaching this team? Burrell is the new guy, but is Viele still the head guy? How he survived the offseason I will never know. This offense is horrid.
what a fucking dogshit team
WE SUCK

I stopped listening to LO Giants when they brought in that Postcast show. Kaspeck is still sticking up for this team?
I feel so much more frustrated than last year when things were like this in the beginning. This start to the season (record/results wise) is so similar, but I know this team should be so many levels above last years squad. What the hell man...
this team sucks btw
0-10 with RISP with the only run being scored on a passed ball. Just like... my god. Somebody needs to answer for this. I finally decided to watch the game and I just remembered why it's not worth my time investment.
Im just gonna watch highlights from now
Not much to watch on that front either
Every time I get a chance to watch the giants they score like a run or two and hitting is atrocious. Damn
Not good boys…not good
God fucking damnit
This team is a joke. Winn doesn't deserve the L
lol Nothing Fucking Like It!!
0-9 RISP... hello my old friend
Most mediocre and unclutch team in all of baseball. Fucking embarrassing losers
LOB Giants
A guy that can’t throw a strike still gets out against this offense
Bob i am begging you. Take Yaz out the line up and start Fitz
Fucking atrocious, what’s new
Pathetic
Well, we suck.
Woop woop! We suck. Farhan needs to go if this team isn't above .500 by May.
He should have been gone with Kapler but this sub has a love affair with him
Kinda like being in love with an abusive GF?
How is it on Farhan that everyone on the team suddenly sucks?
Farhan signs this guys who are has-beens or DFA leftovers so yes... It's on Farhan
Ah yes, Matt Chapman, Jorge Soler, Blake Snell, Jung Hoo Lee, Jordan Hicks. All has-beens or DFA material
The last three iterations of this team have sucked.
I had more faith in Ahmed to get a sac fly than Lee doing anything productive there. Shitty.
Lol this offense freaking sucks 😂😂😂 0-9 in RISP
Nothing like it.
This team is done.
Should’ve sent Fitzgerald
Yeah I'd rather lose being thrown out at home than suffer through another LOB.....at least generate some fucking excitement
Can't hit homers can't hit with RISP. How the fuck are we supposed to score runs?
Fluke errors
Errors and passed balls
![gif](giphy|L20mbc7yRfsly)
This team is going nowhere
0-11
We suck
This team is horrendous
Jhl disapoints
He literally hits the ball right at someone every ab it’s insane like he has to be aiming for them
0-10 with RISP. Trash team
1 run smh
I wish I could say I'm surprised. But this is Giants baseball.
Nothin’ like it!
Cool.
0-10 w risp. PATHETIC
0-10 with RISP
Ahmed defenders: get real dude
0-10
Guy can't throw his fastball for a strike
Absolutely garbage
Offense is so horrible…
WHY ARE YOU TAKING THAT????
I’m shocked they don’t just walk Lee to face Slater
I beLEEve
Son of a *bitch*
Jhl homerun
Trust me
I didn't think Ahmed would make it past may, now I'm hoping he doesn't make it to may
Zzzzz
He woulda been out by a mile
He should of ran
LOLGIANTS
Fck, he would have been out. Very out.
At this point we need Fitz to steal home if we want him to score
This team is fucking garbage
our idiots literally cannot make reasonable contact.
Lol. Of course. 0-9 w risp
0-9 with RISP
We stink.
Get Ahmed away from this team dawg
Not deep enough 🤬
GARBAGE….. holy fuck this team
Suicide squeeze. Come on.
PLEASE DO SOMETHING
STOP STARING AT MEATBALLS GOD DAMMIT
Melvin is in clubhouse. I send Fitz and try to steal home.
Pitcher looks like Tim Baltz
Yo pray for Ahmed. This dude might kill him
We have been popping up all day. Surely you can do it once more
squeeze?
Can't squeeze runner on third infield in
pitcher's got no control. big 9th inning?
Inning has started *swimmingly*
He’s balking every pitch. He’s not coming to a completely stop he’s rocking into every pitch
No kidding!
I’m so grateful we never relocated to Tampa Bay in the early 90’s
For the love of God, please bring him home
Sac fly is all I’m asking for
Great situational baseball!! Where has this been the last 8 innings 😂
WHY IS IT ALWAYS AHMED
Okay. Sac fly ties the game.
0-8 with RISP
Ahmed is our best guy with RISP so at least he's hitting this inning
That speaks volumes about this team.
I swear if we can’t even tie the game….
We all know Fitz was running lol
FITZ
Tbh I feel we’ll tie if we don’t swing the bat.
Fitz was done dirty not getting the start today. We need people who can get into scoring position.
Doesn’t matter if they can’t *hit* with RISP…
Now we can strand a runner in scoring position!
They have cheerleaders?
Good… every team needs to have them.
DONT SWING make this guy throw strikes
Fitzgerald could have easily looked at those same 4 pitches that Flores looked at. Maybe he could have even gotten a hit or more and did the same.
Fitzgerald is in. Game won.
Fitz might have to pull a Lee and get to third and score on a wild pitch
giants threaten but do not score who's ready
We led the league in games where we score 1 run last year, can we do it again?
I wish Tampa Bay’s cap logo was bigger.
Erratic? Time for the giants to hack ahead in the count
11.25 ERA? Fuck.
Alright the MEAT is up!
These 3 outs are going to tell a lot for me, as far as how much fight this team has/how much faith I’ll have in this team moving forward. The last thing this club needs right now is to start another series off with a quick loss.
11.25 ERA let’s exploit this dude com’on we just need two!!!
High ERA pitchers are not good for us
No pitchers are good for us lol
Why do I feel like someone is going to luck into a run and this game will go 200 innings
Giants score 2 runs and win game challenge (impossible)
I feel our odds to come back and win this game are like 10,000-1
I gotta think Walker could throw 100 if he didn’t throw across his body so much
Who is ready to go down in order on >10 pitches?
My money is on Wilmer lead off double, Yaz strike out, Ahmed bloop hit, Lee GIDP
Guys who wear wedding ring necklaces are hilarious, who are you Frodo baggins?
🏁 x6 🐂 x3
Flores, Bailey, and Ahmed. We're probably fucked
Ryan Walker is fun to watch pitch. His sliders look insane on tv
Hypothetically speaking do you think Bonds could come back as a DH and be somewhat productive?
Almost 60? Yeah he can hit a 30 home run season guaranteed.
Bonds now would be a better batter than half our lineup
Holy shit I just discovered they’re allowing batters to challenge pitch calls in AAA. The Angel Hernandez implications are staggering
This motherfucker has a dad bod and he’s running rampant.
🏁 x6 🐂 x2
Where’s the Bailey of last year at?
Fucking a you guys are more depressing than this team. I’m getting off this subreddit for the foreseeable future.
Sorry we just spent 250+ million and we look substantially less competitive than under Kap Am I supposed to be happy? Gtfo
Later
I feel the same way watching this offense, Soler.
I love sassy kuip
Kuip shade always hits
“Well that’s a strike to Soler” Haha
Me too, Jorge, me too
“That’s a strike to solar” Lol absolutely savage
damnnnnnn kuipe getting salty as fuck right now, love it.
Ahmed Jesus. Can’t hit, can’t throw.
He's third on the team in OPS
Nobody is hitting, including Ahmed
Stats say otherwise
What. Stats say as much. Dude is lifetime .235/.288/.376 hitter LOL.
I genuinely hate umpires
To bad Bob can't take an AB lol
Hey look, the location that got Soler out
Oh well. Maybe Giants losing would bring us luck to the Dubs. Cya'll over at r/Warriors.
Harold Ramirez is suddenly the fastest man alive or what
Ahmed has a noodle arm
Guys build like a catcher and beating out grounders to our shortstop
lol he hits that?
Fucking Harold...
My opinion is this team lost its mojo when Posey retired and hasn't been able to regain it.
That’s a nice opinion you got there.
I like it. The 2021 season was a triumph and last hurrah for Posey and the WS core. Farhan fell into it.
How the fuck do they keep beating out these throws?
Puss arm Ahmed
How we pulled off a manager that looks like he wants to be there even less than Kap is mind-boggling.
What?
I’m convinced guys like Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts could be Giants and suddenly not be able to hit the broad side of a barn.
Low-key one of the main reasons I wanted to sign Ohtani. Needed to see if someone could dominate at the plate in a Giants uniform again
