    Pitchers Park Podcast, Episode 3 - Chapman pressing at the plate, struggling in the field

    Approaching the quarter-mark of the season, Matt Chapman's rough start is analyzed. On defense, his -4 Outs Above Average (tied for worst in MLB) ranks 34th among 3rd Basemen. On offense, he's slashing .204/.257/.338 and a 72 wRC+. Luckily there's plenty of baseball left to right the ship. Pitchers Park Podcast is part of the Fans First Sports Network.

    Giants Chroncast #45: The Big Pivot

    In their last episode, Bryan and Doug proclaimed it YAMAMOTO OR BUST... well... we're in BUST territory, and so now both hosts pitch their ideas for what constitutes the next pivot for this strange offseason. They also discuss the Jung Hoo Lee deal and the decade-plus of decisions and philosophy that have put the Giants so far back of their once archrivals.

    Giants Chroncast #44: NOHTANI

    What's the Giants' big move or series of moves this offseason now that their archrival has added the best player on the planet to its roster? Bryan and Doug return not to lament but to plan out what the team could do that might help them save face while keeping pace with a team they were supposed to compete against, but after five years of a new front office, have only fallen farther behind. Then they talk about what the Ohtani signing could mean for the future of Giants Baseball before discussing how new Old School Pitching Coach Bryan Price could impact the team's present.

    Giants Chroncast #43: What's the Giants' budget for free agents?

    The San Francisco Giants announced most of their coaching staff for the 2024 season this past Friday night, and Bryan and Doug examine the highs and lows of everyone's resumes. They also discuss Michael Conforto's decision to opt-in to $18 million for 2024 (a bummer? a shrug?) and the player awards season. All that before the (30:50) mark where they get into free agency and where the Giants can go based on their budget and based on need. Point of fact: FanGraphs projects 7 years/$196 million for Yoshinobu Yamamoto. For some reason Bryan said $96 million. The team has the ability to go big and still fill some needs, but just like their chances for next season even if they land a big fish this offseason, it's a little foggy when it comes to seeing where they stand with all the big fishes in free agency.

    Giants Chroncast #42: The Bob Melvin-Farhan Zaidi Alliance

    Bryan and Doug return to evaluate the San Francisco Giants' first big move of their offseason: hiring Bob Melvin away from the San Diego Padres. It's a move that crosses a lot of t's and dots a lot of i's but leaves very little to the imagination. Are there any actual surprises in store for the team or are they following a script written by season ticketholders? Meanwhile, some listener questions are finally answered including one important question the hosts had never before considered.

    Giants Chroncast #41: Farhan Zaidi's press conference & Bullpen Trust Power Rankings for September

    The Giants fell face-first while running down the stretch and the President of Baseball Operations' end of season press conference did little to assuage any fears that next year would be different. Bryan and Doug delve into the obvious but also deeper meanings of some of the highlights from Farhan Zaidi's conference and toy with the premise that we're living in a new era of Baseball stubbornness. They also give their final trust power rankings of the season (32:08) and the results are shocking.
