About
One day after a dramatic comeback win, the San Francisco Giants played extremely ugly baseball in a loss to the Twins in the series finale. It all began in the first inning, when the SF Giants had things set up beautifully against Joe Ryan, who's been one of the game's best pitchers this season. The Giants had runners on second and third with nobody out, but they were unable to score. That type of situation came up again and again, and the SF Giants were consistently unable to capitalize.
The Giants also had major defensive issues in the loss. Michael Conforto let a ball sail over his head. Blake Sabol had a costly passed ball. Brandon Crawford clanked two easily catchable balls, one a throw from Sabol and one a routine grounder that should've ended an inning. Brett Wisely also let a routine ground ball go right through him.
What is the level of concern with Crawford? He's not hitting at all (although he did have a good offensive game today), but he also looks very much not like himself on defense. And what can the SF Giants do with Craw if they determine he's simply no longer their best option at short? And what is the level of concern with Mitch Haniger, who remains in a very deep slump at the plate? Finally, the latest on exciting Giants minor leaguers in Triple-A Luis Matos and Kyle Harrison is discussed.
