Inbox: How will the Giants manage their impending roster crunch?




Locked On Giants – Daily Podcast On The San Francisco Giants show

Summary: On today's Locked On Giants podcast, host Ben Kaspick answers questions from listeners about the state of the San Francisco Giants. Among the questions asked and answered are: The Giants are a couple weeks out from when the roster will officially “crunch." Who on the active roster do you see gone by trade, option, or DFA? BABIP is a an indicator of lucky or unlucky hitting. Is there an equivalent for indicator for left-on-base ? Is seems like the Giants have left a ton on base, and maybe it’s all just evening out because they’ve typically been scoring those guys. What role will Tyler Beede play post-All-Star break? Starter? Reliever? Neither? Why are the Giants so attached to Beede? His numbers are terrible. He still has control problems. Jake McGee throws a lot of pitches down the middle. When I heard he was a one pitch guy, I figured he had plus command. Strikes, yes; corners, no. Is this how he has historically pitched, or is he getting lucky this year? Does the fastball carry that much that this is expected to continue? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
