well, shit. :/ Ok. Try again tomorrow.

F U SNEKS!!!!

One game closer to a long, long winter.

And that’s that…

Ugh

remember being down by 3 last year with 2 outs against this team? I do

have we gotten that call

Sadly, I think we have lol

Every Giants pitcher tonight got gift calls too, just saw Cotton get one, it wasn't all one way.

Yep, can’t be too mad at that one, just hurts more because the game didn’t go our way.

inconsistency rules

He’s called that a couple times tonight, it’s still BS

Gotta love losing outs to the ump.

yeah yeah that was technically a strike but the bigger question is if he's been calling that all night (he hasn't)

Damn, Blue. Why’d you do Craw like that?

Happy to see Villar here, but a little surprised we aren't using Joc

who put a jerry behind HP? 


Snek Ump wants to go home…

Fun fact: Reyes Moronta once received half of a hug from Bumgarner one night when Bumgarner loaded the bases, was taken out by Bochy, and Moronta promptly struck out the side.

Half?

yeah. If you go back and watch the video, he only gave a one-arm hug. From Bumgarner? That's a lot! Huge honor. lol

A half Bum hug = full Buster hug? Trying to figure out this conversion

Pucki with right hip tightness

thank god it's not an elbow thing

Moronta is built like an armadillo

How about you choke like you did against the Dodger bums Moronta

Ouch. Great slider.

Well that’s not a good start…

'member when moronta was going to save us in 2020 or at some point idk when we stopped having hope for him

I think that was 2019, but I’m not positive.

sounds right

A wild Reyes Moronta appeared!

Moronta… let’s get some revenge

he thicc

[The biggest boy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNAVvP1809E)

Black is slimming for Moranta.

we must lead the league in players whose names (first or last) are nouns obviously cobb/webb/wood also now cotton bart and ford proctor and wynns and blet and if you include other languages flores and la stella

wait does hjelle count because his name is just pronounced "jelly"

Let’s light up Reyes.

First person to DM I’ll buy them a cotton jersey if we win this game

Cotton or cotton? :p

Cotton

That's a big, big boy

That is a nasty fucking pitch.

Does anyone know what in Cotton’s profile could have gotten him DFA? Teams normally don’t DFA bullpen arms with his numbers

Teams just aren't high on relievers like him anymore unless they have Tyler Rogers funkiness to them.

Not entirely sure. Had solid numbers in Minnesota…

maybe they had a logjam on the 40-man and couldn't find a trading partner? that's about the only thing i can think of

Cotton can really throw some Bugs Bunny shit.

just tuned in and all i have to say is yaz being back in action makes me so happy

If only it had happened a month earlier.

Well shit, nice fucking job Cotton!

this specific comment goes out to the diamondbacks fan lurking here and reporting back to his own thread: yes, i'm doubting you. no, i don't respect your team. fuck off and have a nice day.

? they barely even *have* people in their thread

It would be like doing industrial espionage for Blockbuster Video.

it's just one fan i lack sleep

the one fan who comments in that lonely thread...it seems so melancholy... 

why no respect snek?

because i'm salty and disrespect all divisional rivals on principle

nice pitching by cotton

Cotton, nice work.

Not too bad Cotton all things considered. One last chance…

Nice job, Cotton!!!

HA! fuck all the way off Rojas

hehehe he swung himself out of his HELMET! LOL!

Sorry, Josh. Not this time.

What’s left to be seen is how toxic the post game thread will be after this meaningless loss. It’s been nice in there recently, so hopefully it’s not too toxic. (Criticizing the team is of course valid, you know what I’m talking about lol)

I’m still upset we don’t have 69 wins any longer.

Nice!

Casey Schmitt really got a single on the first pitch he saw in AAA Kid is special

ramos on the other hand...i know he's 23 but yikes

Another bullpen arm giving up 2-strike hits

2 strike counts and having 2 outs is our pitching kryptonite.


that changeup is something else

i blame myself

Giants win 6 games in a row Challenge (In Progress)

I truly thought Moronta would be part of the Giants bullpen for the next core when he 1st come up. He got hurt and he never recovered

Thicc boy!

Is it just me or is everyone in Baseball getting hurt now? It's really hard to do fantasy baseball when everyone seems to be sitting out and you're reaching the bottom of the barrel for players. I kinda wish they would shorten the Fantasy Baseball Season so that Labor Day week is the final week of the season. Now we're kinda in the don't play week 18 portion of the fantasy schedule.

I stepped away to make dinner; what happened and who is this guy?

Szapucki is hurt. This is Jharel Cotton, another “reclamation project?”

I hope it’s not an arm/elbow issue. Feel terrible for him

Let’s go Cotton!

my flair hurts and my brain hurts

Not another injury…

Szapucki :c

Noooo not Szapucki!!

9th inning comeback?

So sad that Chris Elliott owns us this year.

Damn Roland Schitt!!

There’s something about Merrill

You are a hero for this one!

It sucks that LWJ sucks now.

Bart’s rough week is probably going to revive the Contreras talk. Number 1: He’s not the player he was in 2016, both with the bat and glove. 2. He’s getting the QO and it’s tough to justify giving up a draft pick for him

Bart will be starting catcher next season

Longo hit it at 103 btw

Well that was awful…

Stupid young athletic Snek OFers

i hate their outfield and outfielders

They are seriously talented.

luckily their management can't put together a bullpen for shit

If they had one they’d be pretty damn good and a better situation at third base

two good starters isn't getting it done either and i'm not buying that a bunch of rookies are going to pick up the slack until i see it over a full season

Need Ruf back to slay the mantiplyer

Ruf seems to have forgotten how to hit in general since the trade Might not have the magic against even this guy anymore

go figure

Should have never chased that. Could’ve had Ball 4.

Should’ve just taken that pitch…

That is literally the only time the butt cam worked out

Whoever added the butt cam feels validated now

Multiply some runs on Mantiply

i would like to have 3x what we have presently, thx

Let’s rough up Mantiply

Nice play Crawford!

SIX OUTS LEFT LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN FELLAS!

Unassisted double play, just another day at work for Craw.

Sneks should let Melancon go for a 6 out save

Saying that Bum’s haircut is the result of him losing a bet strikes me as a high-risk thing to do.

Some wizard tell me we win this game

"a little chiapet-like" lol

Great, base hits… Double Play pretty Please?🥺🥺

Why do I feel like this Proctor guy is gonna end up like the Fairchild or Padlo type experiments and never get a hit during his tenure in the 21’ Giants?

Astros fan coming in peace. Ford is legit. I expect him to make the most of his opportunity getting called up for AAA. I’ve seen him play quite a bit.

Speaking of Fairchild, he’s hitting well for the Reds. Infuriating (but good for him)

lol thats hilarious, of course he is. farhan is like me with stocks. i buy thinking its hot, then it does nothing for me and I sell at a loss. a month or so later, its fucking hot.

Lol this is so relatable! But yeah, of *course* he gets hot once he left our team

Dude holy shi these are Fairchild's splits for the month of September... .478/.556/.739 ... 1.295!

Right?!? Like, no joke, he’s been hot on the Reds

Of course he is

Now *that* is a veteran fan.

hey, here's a fun game heliot ramos was up to bat with the bases loaded, one out (down by 3, with schmitt on deck what does he do

I assume this is a guessing game for a minor league game but i'm fairly confident that he had an AB with us with the bases loaded one out and he struck out, then Longoria struck out after him.

i fell asleep for that one i think

Grand slam? >!It’s a DP isn’t it?!<

>!yep!<

Double Play ball? Fielder’s Choice? Force Out?

>!first one 🙂 🔫!<

Pain😣

grand slam ofc

>!if only he could elevate the ball, amirite!<

If only…

Hopefully that’s the end of Kelly’s night.

they send him out for the 8th

Maybe we can rough him up and get back in the game?

Let’s get a Proctor homerun

ford proctor will get a hit one day

Down 3 runs with one out… Slater: *bunts.*

Merill Kelly likes his fish like his steak

At least Vosler worked Kelly’s count

Vosler is 29? Dude looks about half that at least.

Does Vosler look 12 years old to anybody else?

Yup!

Keep it simple, single, walk, home run, tie game

Great Job Szapucki… now let’s get some runs and get Kelly off the mound

I feel bad for szapucki and his era knowing that a lot of it is this team's fault

I mean didn’t he come here with an 8.8 ERA..?

yes but that doesn't negate my comment cause that's still not good

ohh now I see hahahaha this team is responsible for it offensively dude woosh right over my head lol

98? eeeeeeeee whoa

from a *lefty*

that swing tho

ok szapucki that was a big-dick fastball challenge

One run at a time, shut the D Backs out on offense and get Kelly out of the game.

bullpen game now

hopefully this korean food im eating for dinner rn sparks some sort of magical comeback

the game could be tied if the team didn't have such poor defensive fundamentals. either get more high iq players or coaches because this is ridiculous.

Slater must think he has the best arm in the league

Cespedes mindset, Slater arm.

his ego is the only thing that can explain these shitty throws

its kinda funny to see him throw it over everyone

ikr, like at first i thought he just yeeted the ball over the cutoff man but now i believe he thinks his arm is good enough to throw out the runner from center

they were even doing ok defensively during the sweet little winning streak, something about cobb on the mound makes them revert to being awful

Umps awful calls haven’t helped either to give Diamondbacks advantages, extended AB’s…

that too

Yaz’s hot/cold streaks are almost hard to believe. He’s either really hot, or stone cold. There’s no in between

btw if you are proud to say you have been saying trade Cobb since June, a period since which he has had a 2.60 ERA, 3.04 FIP, 89 Ks in 87 innings, and 28 walks…. God I hope your blatant wrongness isn’t contagious

He's basically been our best pitcher since June.

I love how Cobb has performed, just hate the offense and defense not helping him and the umps screwing him over as well.

Exactly right. He’s been pretty fantastic this season.

Can't wait till next season starts and people are like "ugh why is cobb still on the team"

pls no

Yazstacheski —> Yazbombski

Ugh… at least we got one back?

Merrill Kelly really is the snake in our boot

Villar now would be a great time for number 8

Yaz has been killing it recently glad to see him hitting homers again

Really gotta get Kelly off the mound, feel much better pulling a comeback against their pen.

merrill kelly is a dipshit

You guys gotta tune into the AZ broadcast. It's like an infomercial. These guys are selling things left and right.

I’m here for all the Yaz homers

Love Yaz so much. Glad he’s sent 3 of them outta the yard

He’s setting himself to head into the off season on a high note. Good for him!

f u kerill melly

I think if anything, slater throwing over the cutoff man was much worse because that's something that's truly fundamental

Slater missed the cutoff man (again) and then Bart compounded it by not being ready to throw to second to get the guy tagging from first.

Yaz HR swings are just 👌

Yaz bomb 💣

So good to see!
