Someone has to win the NL West, and it’s not going to be the Giants this year. Apologies to Bruce Bochy and the team, who are still going to act like they’re in the race until math leaves a flaming bag of poo on their doorstep, but it’s not going to happen. They just spent three games embarrassing themselves at Coors Field, and they’ve got three teams far ahead of them, and just one behind.
Side note: somehow, even though the Giants are the worst team that ever existed, an embarrassment to the very concept of sports, and a black mark on your character from which you personally can never recover, the Padres have a much, much worse record.
