Hunter Pence headed to DL with hamstring strain after MRI (Bochy: "unfortunately, he did a **pretty good job** at it.").

Dreaded topic of conversation at KNBR this morning: Casilla.

Giants have never faced Aaron Blair (new guy; debuted against NYM this year).

Braves leading series 2-1.

Yup, Brian McCann too. Pretty sure I remember McCann crushing one of his pitches

Belt is seriously justifying his contract extension so far

based belt

That's awesome. What is it about the Braves bringing up these comfy paired players that turn out to be "ok" or shit (or at least don't live up to expectations/move on).
>McCann & Frenchy

I feel like it's gotta be A's-tier being a Braves fan the last few years.

True, but I like "muh potential" players. Plus he's handsome, no homo

Gay as fug bro

The June swoon is real.

Oh noes

Hey its only St Louis up next .. oh shit

>Basketball jersey at a baseball game

Fuck St. Louis.

Nah its gonna be Kershit again or Pilates boy

>FUCK


Hahahhaha

>Kershit TJS
>Arrieta busted for Performance-enhancing pilates

the fuck was that

So how do you guys feel about 2 out of 4 against the Barves?

I think its shit considering the Doyers played the Cubs at Wrigley and literally no ground was made.

craw why

Poor management

Ha! He's gonna get fined. Worth it.

If the cubs win today it's alright
The real loss for this series wasn't the losses, per se, but Pence. There's still a four and a half game gap between second in the NL West

Makes me hate Casilla even more desu

...

>bullpen

Wonder who's going to give BUM those two ERs

>Bullpen only lights-out when the lead is huge or we're getting BTFO
>Always give up runs with a close lead

Thank you based strickland

pls leave him in next inning, bochey

Nice quads. But yeah theres a 3 game set against LA later this month which makes 4.5 GA uneasy plus June swoon.

How bad is it for Pence? I know its currently on the 15 day DL.

I don't know what to feel about Casilla anymore.

But I do know a new closer is required if the even year bullshit is to continue:

2010 - Wilson
2012 - Romo
2014 - Casilla
2016 - ???

Really upset, honestly. Not making excuses, but it pisses me off that:

1) A late-night flight from Moon-Base Coors to Atlanta seemed to fuck all the dudes up for a DAY game on Monday (wtf?) and seeing Shark have such an awful game was disheartening

2) Suarez's awesome game being totally ruined by motherfucking Santiago "I love da Lord and da Bible and my manager doesn't believe in me so I'm gonna be a whiney bitch" Casilla

Just a fucked up way to lose two games to such a shitty team.

Bum's sub 2 era preserved.

To make it worse, the Dodgers play the Braves next and will probably sweep

I told you fucks not to get cocky. I said we're only an injury away from us letting this season slip away and then Pence gets hurt. No Pagan, no Pence, no Cain who did great in his last few starts and looked awesome

We still got this, I just hate all these people who think it's easy. The Dodgers will always be a thorn in our side

Casilla fucked up but Suarez started putting guys on base in the 6th

2016 - Propane man

>one out
>"lights out"

Casilla has given up 5 runs so far. 4 of them were in 1-run games. I don't know if that's just terrible luck or if he just can't handle pressure. But it's really frustrating that he can strike out the side with a 3-run lead, and chokes with only 1 run to work with.

Who's cocky? Every year my butthole is clinched until we get to September/October.

for fucks sake

>6.02 ERA in AAA

Some shitposting casuals in the /mlb/ generals. Obviously not everybody is, it just seems like when people start talking about how great they are that's when it all goes to shit

He's a bit of a pussy, dude. Like, a softy, and it catches up to him. He looks like a guy that would fuck you up, but he's this big humble, sensitive bible-thumper that can't handle certain things. He's got the stuff, he just, yeah, I think you're right, he can't handle pressure.

STRICKLAND CAN THROW MORE THAN 1/3 OF AN INNING

WHY, BOCHEY

But aren't /mlb/ generals just for shitposting anyway?
