After 4-2 Road Trip, What do the Giants Have Left in the Tank?

A quarter tank of hope? Our Lost Boys break down the Pirates series and the roster as they take stock of what (little?) hope the Giants have for the rest of 2025 and beyond. How good is the rotation now? How about that pitching depth? Is the best bullpen in baseball still ... decent? What about right field? Oh, and will the Eldritch Knight ever be allowed to play first base?

Our new cocktail podcast, The Perfect Sip, is on hiatus but new episodes are in production. (Yeah, it's taking a long time ... life, you know?) If you haven't listened yet, you can catch up here: https://the-perfect-sip.captivate.fm/listen
