Summary
The San Francisco Giants are navigating a stretch that could quietly define where this season is headed. With pitching continuing to surprise and the offense still searching for consistency, Jeff Young joins the show to break down what’s real, what’s noise, and what needs to change. We dive into the Giants’ unexpected strengths on the mound, ongoing hitting struggles, and whether this team is closer to turning a corner or staying stuck in neutral. We also touch on a busy stretch of games, including a doubleheader against the Philadelphia Phillies and what it could mean for Logan Webb and the bullpen moving forward — without overreacting to one day. Plus, the bigger picture conversation: the Giants selling a 10% stake to Thrive Eternal, the rise of private equity in sports, and whether any of it should matter to fans if the team isn’t winning.
