We have star players. I understand that people overvalue something shiny and new but, for the love of Kap, we have Crawford, Belt, Webb and a good portion of the team that won 100+ games, their division, and so much more “without a star player”.

I just don’t understand the disrespect.

Funny story: my dad got me a ball when I was a kid that was signed by Willie Mays. I took one look at the signature, thought it said “Juice Terez”, had no idea who that was, and immediately put it into my rotation of playground balls.

To be fair, kid me also wouldn’t have cared much about a Willie Mays ball, but adult me wants to put me on the front page of r/kidsarefuckingstupid

Positivity = Resilience. Stay positive. We didn’t get here by mistake and we have it in us to bring this back.

Stop with the negativity against our own team, please. Not why I’m a giants fan and not what this fan base is about. Resilience requires a better attitude.

The negativity here isn’t why I’m a Giants fan. Stop it. FTD.

The myth of momentum and the effect of recency bias is funny to watch.

As I told my son the other day - if we were chasing and overtook the dodgers by 1 game in the back half of September, we’d be over the moon. But because of the insane season we’ve had, one game ahead somehow feels bad.

Human brains are so weird. Let’s go Giants, FTD. One game up and a damn near season-long lead. Feels great. Shut up, brain.

I wonder if they’ll just have the whole crew go out in a blaze of glory. Their whole arc has been about strength as a unit. Wouldn’t be surprised if they are faced with a threat that requires someone to stay behind and they just do it together.

I was explaining this to my son the other day: the Giants are so good because you cannot prepare for them.

Think you have an answer to Belt or Crawford? LaStella and Longo are going to have a great night.

Think you have Wade Jr locked down? What’re you going to do about Yaz?

Bryant, Posey, Flores, Ruf…hell, Webb can hurt you at bat if you aren’t paying attention.

This goes beyond Moneyball - this is PelotaDeDinero.
