It’s June, and the Giants are hovering around .500. A good stretch of games has often been followed by an absolute stinker or two. They’re within striking distance of the third wild-card spot. Does any of this excite you?
Well, it should. Are the Giants a surefire, bona fide playoff contender? Maybe, maybe not. But they’ve seemingly fixed one of their biggest problems, as they are no longer boring. Dare I say it, the Giants are even exciting.
“Boring” isn’t a strong enough word to describe the Giants of recent vintage. “Unwatchable” would be better.
