1/3 Season Review

That's right, the season 33.333% over. Our bean counters break down the National series (the usual, good pitching not much hitting) before turning their attention to the 1/3 season review. Can the Giants actually win the West? In this economy? Is Patrick Bailey a liability or the best player on the team? Will Adames ever show up?

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
