Good morning, baseball fans!
It saddened me to learn that the San Francisco Giants had traded their longest tenured player, Austin Slater, earlier this week.
One of my fondest memories at Oracle Park heavily involves Slater.
It was a cool July evening back in 2019, one that some of you may remember well because it was a McCovey Chronicles meet-up game. I was quite sick, but all smiles as I watched Bryan Murphy (our Bryan Murphy, not the other Bryan Murphy) bicker with our former colleague Carmen Kiew about whether or not Austin Slater was, in fact, good.
