Summary:

If the Giants want to do well, they should hit & pitch good.

Note how xanthan adopts the pseudonym “Chis Quick” so he sounds more like a human.

Agreed. Only a computer would know the difference.

My Bucardo is better than yours.

A hot August weekday, before a small crowd, when the only thing at stake is the tissue-thin difference between a thing done well and a thing done ill. Insofar as the clutch hitter is not a sportswriter's myth, it is a vulgarity, like a writer who writes only for money.

I like how only you and the Brewers guy mentioned stats to support your claims, though. Also you used bullet points! A+ for concise insight and clear formatting.

I just realized the Giants have issued the most walks in the majors. They also have the most strikeouts.

They are also third best in team ERA, and are third best in hits allowed.
