Geez Giants suck

I had a little hope after Skene's last outing, that maybe he/they had figured something out and he was back on the right track.
OOPS! I guess not. I really believe there's something wrong with him physically. Not necessarily his arm, but something else. I remember decades ago, Tom Seaver had some physical ailment that he was able to pitch through (sciatic nerve maybe?), but he had a terrible season, similar to Skene's,
The bullpen continues to be just absolute trash. It's like Forrest Gump's famous "box of chocolates" - never know what you're gonna get....

 

I can’t imagine getting through a day at work with sciatica acting up
Let alone on a mound pitching

 

This season is bunch of box of chocolates
Our record could be so much better if
Our ace didn’t collapse
BP is poo poo
SP in general
Minus Ashcraft poo poo
RISP is another huge one

 

Come on Buccos
Btm 7
Let's get the bats going
down 3-1
