BRING BRIAN SABEAN HOME! 🧡🖤

@SusanSlusser “can't imagine a scenario” where the Giants don't explore bringing their former championship architect back to the Bay.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Don't let Miguel Mendez's Arizona Fall League numbers fool you... 👀🌵️

@JeremyAffeldt says it's all about “health and his development of pitches” rather than worrying about an inflated ERA.

[Susan Slusser @susanslusser]

Join me and @JeremyAffeldt as we look at roster moves, the Arizona Fall League and the possible return of a true Giant: https://t.co/Zp3vNXM8eZ

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Thank you for making baseball fun in the Bay, Grant McCray! 🧡🖤

@JeremyAffeldt says the Giants' September callups revealed they “have multiple options” in the outfield, but hopes McCray can thrive with a fresh start in Seattle.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Buster Posey should know a thing or two about championship bullpens... 👀

@JeremyAffeldt wants the Giants to bring back that winning formula with “three or four guys” who can “slam doors from the sixth inning on.”

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

A great philosopher from Radiator Springs once said it best: “Speed. I am speed.” ⚡️

@JeremyAffeldt believes “speed, defense and high baseball IQ” could help the Giants build their own championship blueprint.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

More velocity, more strikeouts… more trips to the IL? 😬

@ScottOstler says Buster Posey wants “more gas” from Giants pitchers, while @JeremyAffeldt explains why they can't rely on “stealing strikes” anymore.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Giants baseball just won't sound the same without Mike Krukow… 💔

@ScottOstler fears his departure will hurt an already struggling fan base, admitting “you just can't replace him.”

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

There's “nothing like” another disappointing Giants season… 🙃

@SusanSlusser explains how San Francisco's marketing slogan became the punchline instead of the selling point.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

How much longer will Giants fans keep showing up? 🤔

@SusanSlusser says some longtime supporters have “sort of checked out” after years of failing to meet the championship standards in the Bay.

[Susan Slusser @susanslusser]

It's a new @SplashHitPod where @scottostler and I consider the plight of the fans after a rough year, continued lack of success, losing Mike Krukow and more: https://t.co/OEs7o8Bbss

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

"They don't pitch, Susan. They THROW." 🎯

@JeremyAffeldt has some STRONG opinions on modern pitching development and the growing number of Tommy John surgeries.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Should Rafael Devers be on the move AGAIN?! 🤯

@susanslusser floats the possibility of another blockbuster, but @JeremyAffeldt isn't ready to sacrifice San Francisco's biggest power threat.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Buster Posey has some work to do this offseason, but which names are OFF the table? 👀

"There's probably only one true untouchable, and that's Bryce Eldridge." - @susanslusser

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

The Giants need pitching, but who are they willing to GIVE UP? 🤔

@SusanSlusser sees San Francisco's young outfielders as potential trade chips, though Jung Hoo Lee is a different story.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Could Joe Ryan be the PERFECT addition to San Francisco's rotation? @SusanSlusser has the Bay Area native at the top of her trade wishlist.

“He grew up a Giants fan.” 👀

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Mason Miller to the GIANTS?! Slow down, Giants fans. 😂

@SusanSlusser wants to make one thing VERY clear about her latest trade-target article: It's a long shot.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Kevin Gausman back in a Giants uniform? 👀

@JeremyAffeldt and @ScottOstler believe a reunion could make plenty of sense, but Buster Posey has some convincing to do.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

“He's got to perform. He's got to be better.” - @ScottOstler

Scott believes Willy Adames needs to prove himself early in 2027, regardless of the Giants' long-term investment.

[Splash Hit Territory @SplashHitPod]

Is Camilo Doval worth another $6M? 💰

@JeremyAffeldt makes the case for moving on from the hard-throwing reliever as the Giants look to rebuild their bullpen for 2027.
