L for SF

why isn't Nunez leading off every day? This man knows how to play

With the offense the way it is, Bochy said that he's using the minor league playbook now. Small ball, steals, bunts, and very patient at-bats with aggressive base-running ... (Belt is in there for defense though, so Buster can catch).

is there not a single rockies fan on Sup Forums lol? or are they all high from muh legal buds

wew that hernandez homerun
coors field is some meme shit man

There were at least two:
1) that guy that used to post the mascot
2) the guy that post the chick in purple

They're winning tho..

that guy is a dodger cuck never respond to him

>picked off

kek

>Strassboorgh RIP-a-pip
>left game after 45 pitches with elbow discomfort

Soon...

YEAH!

YEAH!

Two in a Fucking Row you MotherFuckers You! Casilla Fucking gots this!

I'm tired of all you fake Giants fans shitting on him when he is a decent closer.

>Casilla is a decent closer

He's in the Top 10 in saves you Absolute Fucking TRICK!

you gotta stick with him for now. based joe nathan SOON

>#1 blown saves

>MLBN analyst last week at CHC
>The title closer is not a privilege. Your save percentage should be in the 90s. Higher and you're elite. Casilla is only at 86%, good enough to be a set-up man but not a closer. But the Giants do not have a choice; the only alternative is to close via match-up committee.

>better pray to "god" before pitching this inning as if he cares about a baseball game

Strap in

It's yo boy

>HR to Arenado

FUCK YOU!!!

lol your prayer worked ca-shit-lla

>Casilla

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Hes gonna blow a two run save in less then 10 pitches

Abstract choking

Derek Law is a better option desu

meatballs

law is dead bro
he's fucking dead

>taking him out

thank the lord

H-He's gonna be fine! Y-You'll see!

;_;

He's NOT decent after all.

Just got home

>casilla

>OSICH

Reeeeee

looks like you were right

Guys, I can't handle another blown save

>Joe Nathan is going to come in and close the game out for the San Francisco Giants

What a time to be alive

>I'm tired
Keep being tired

>tfw he was closing games in the Bonds era

This inning is giving me a headache

>he's gonna close the game

not so fast there

...

...

...

Fucking fuck

un fucking believable.

actually, it is believable, and that's the sad thing. i don't even care anymore. i'm numb.

Lmao

Do you guys remeber when leading the game after the 7th was a for sure win?

Fuck this man

I actually want to die right now

[Angry Screeching]

REEEE CASILLA

REEEE OUR BULLSHIT CLOWNCAR BULLPEN CAN'T SAVE AGAINST THE ROCKIES WITH A THREE RUN LEAD REEEE

That's the season m8s

The bottom half of the pen is non existent.

Magic number = 20

Good game jints

top kek. i'd actually feel bad for the giants if my being a dodger fan didnt conditionally block the part of my brain that creates empathy when it comes to that team

>The Rockies rally in the bottom of the 9th as the Giants fall to a MLB-worst 17-32 since the All-Star break.

Fuck off DG you flaming piss slurping faggot

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HOLY KEK

EAT SHIT SAN FAGS

>thinking i'm DG.

Day off / Travel day tomorrow

Next game is on Friday at 9:40 PM ET | 6:40 PM PT

>tying run= Casilla's ... blown!
>winning run= Osich's HBP

Casilla BLOWS ANOTHER ONE!!! ... and it won't even be on his record.

.5 from falling out of Wild Card boys

What the FUCK did the Giants do wrong!?

WHAT THE FUCK!!!

He got a Hold you Fucking Twatcoaster!

This was on Osich and Nathan who got the loss and the Blown save!

holy shit that picture got me.

>the city of san fagcisco


See you next season, friends.

No pen m8

No more based as fuck game controlling Affeldt

No more slippery sliders from Romo

No more K-See-Ya (mental break down)

Going to have to wait and see what Evans will bring in next year

Even though it's an off day, Casilla will still blow a save tomorrow.

you win this round mexico...

What did Kruk and Kipe have to say?

that osich is going to catch some pillow cases with bars of soap in them

Where the Fuck was Peavy? Why did they even activate him if they weren't gonna let that cat pitch?

THE CURSE OF SKEETER

>2016 San Francisco Giants season, the gif

Peavy can't pitch out the pen, the adrenaline isnt the same for him. He needs a challenge and fire under his ass to get him in peavymode

I was looking at the game log. How in the FUCK does Arenado hit a home run on an 0-2 count?

This is on Bochy for taking out Casilla. I bet you he grounds Blackmon into the game ending double play and gets the save if Boch let's him Fucking pitch out of it.

That single by Murphy looked Fucking weak too. It was a cheap hit.

Peavy is shit bro

Nah, this isn't on Bochy

He's damned if does, damned if he doesn't. Casilla probably blows the game if left in

Krukow is now saying that Casilla should only be the closer at sea level. I'm not Fucking making this up.

Based Vin is contrasting Kenley Jansen to the dumpster fire that is Casilla.

Why didn't Pagan catch that Fucking ball!? He is in a contract year right?

I'm sick of him defensively half assing it all the time. He is costing us Fucking games!

>vin
>based

the worlds oldest baseball meme?

I think Vin is the world's oldest baseball anything.

Really gonna miss him next year.

Yeah but he's the Fucking closer. You gotta leave him in. Don't Fucking send him out there unless you intend for him to finish the game one way or another.

And why is he Fucking throwing sliders on strikeout counts at Coors Field? That's not his Fucking strikeout pitch! Is that one on Posey? Why is he Fucking calling that pitch on 0-2 instead of the sinker below the knees?

>but he's the Fucking closer.
At this point I think even Kyra Sedgwick would be a better closer.

No he didn't. He compared him to Joe Nathan

Casilla threw nothing but hanging curves.

Did you see how far he ran? From deep LF to shallow CF ....

That's why it's called a Coors Field hit.

Outfielders always play deep because simple flyballs carry well. Which then makes pop-ups difficult to go after.

>Two run lead.
>Three Earned Runs charged.
>2 charged to Casilla (tying runs)
>1 charged to Osich (winning run) thus, L goes on his record

Like he said , Casilla is charged with the tying run but will not get a blown save on his record (MLB will record it as an H).

is that a fucking 40 oz

Yeah but he got a shitty jump on the ball because he wasn't Fucking paying attention. I went back and watched the replay.

Vin specifically compared how well Jansen is pitching to how poorly Casilla is.

That the Giants have plenty of bullpen dumpster fires from which to choose doesn't change what Vin said.

Like I said, this loss and blown save ain't Fucking on Casilla. If you want to blame him for it then they need to Fucking let him stay in the game and try to pitch out of the jam.

He got pulled out because he's on a short leash. Because he's not performing well.

Listen to Krukow's interview at CSN-BA, He keeps shaking Posey off (some of which are called from the dugout) and wants to pitch his way, and his way is not working. He is not performing well and still shows an attitude of not cooperating with what's called.

And listen to how Fleming says "driven" on the Arenado home run ... (as close to him saying the F word).

Also, look at Cueto's face at the post-game interview from CHC when he said "... unfortunately our closer wasn't able to save the game."

A closer is someone to be feared by opponents because he's in the game to seal their fates. Casilla actually gives the opponents hope. And is now a laughing stock in /mlb/.

But it's nice to know he at least still has 1 fan here.

>Casilla still has 1 fan

I don't believe it. Anyone defending Casilla at this point has to be a troll.

At this point even Casilla wouldn't be willing to be a troll for Casilla.

I am going to have to go back and watch this. I honestly don't believe you that he is shaking off Posey.

The one in CHC is more evident. Posey kept putting the same sign down and Casilla kept shaking it off. Posey was insisting for naught; because when Casilla finally threw it was off-target to where Posey is positioned.

Why? Casilla still threw what he wanted and gave up a double. You see Posey actually jump up from the crouch almost wanting to scream -- Miller, Fleming, and Krukow discussed this jump post-game.

I think this post might be fake.
