All I’m seeing is Illuminati.

I thought the stretcher was a bit much— I’d have looked around for a dumpster. At least no one tried giving CPR.

Zack Littell revenge game.

I was thinking that too.

Actually, I’m wondering if the team is on 2027 watch, since they’re scoring about the same amount of runs as they would in a lockout.

When the main reason for optimism is “They’ll have Devers for the whole season” I knew it would be another long year.

This organization needs to start turning some of their highly touted infield prospects into outfielders, because the Giants outfield is, once again, in shambles.

GIANTS FANS IT GETS WORSE

He’d think even less of Jesus if he ever read the Bible.

If the Pope doesn’t pass muster, I can’t imagine what he thinks of Jesus.

Also hit just 8 HRs, which may be the fewest in MLB. Guessing they’ll climb the ladder with that stat.

Also near or at the bottom in steals; not confident they’re gonna improve there.

Very surprised the batting average (.243) is above the median— some teams are below .200.

I get too literal with those photos and if I see anything that even closely resembles the object I click.

Shoulda jumped straight to the condor pen.

I am so sorry you had to deal with such horrid people; sending my best thoughts from afar.

Speaking of spoonerisms, isn’t Charter’s Farm near Richmond?

This team has 2017 vibes all over it.

A year ago they had one of the best bullpens in baseball; now they have one of the worst, and it’s cost them the last two games.

They had all offseason to address this, and did not. I have no idea why the bullpen was neglected by a team with little margin for error.

So he’s gonna run, lose the election, claim it was rigged, then try and overthrow the government he already overthrew?

A Concert for the Ages..... April Fools, Makin' records, Condor update, Warm enough?, Kathleen Edwards

My latest Substack!

Read the April Fools post written by an OCD-adjacent biologist who’s spent a little too much time in the observation blind at Pinnacles…..

California condor #943 perches atop the flight pen in Pinnacles National Park, dwarfing a turkey vulture perched beside him.

Beautiful long-nosed snake in Pinnacles National Park.

You mean it……bugs you?

Not to mention his dining habits. He could order anything but he chooses Big Macs, Filet-o-Fish, and Shamrock shakes.

If that fails you could ask Gob to make him disappear….

They had the perfect slogan, too:

Giants Offense:
Nothing.
Like it.

Came *from* Judge….

Meanwhile, the Yankee offense came Judge, who used SF as leverage, and Stanton, who refused a trade to SF.

That just sorta popped into my head while Camilo Doval was striking out the side.
