With just 12 games left in another pitiable season, there’s no time to mince words. The San Francisco Giants are bad, the Orioles are good, and for the next three days we’ll probably see some severe baseball-related violence against Bob Melvin’s squadron.
The Giants are 9-18 against the AL East over the last two seasons which isn’t Melvin’s fault, nor is the team he’s been handed, a group of prospects with the ceiling of great depth pieces and veterans who would be great 3rd or 4th options on a better team. They had a chance to win a season series against a division rival that wasn’t the Rockies but instead were swept at home by the far superior Padres.
