Summary
The San Francisco Giants struggles against the Arizona Diamondbacks are reaching historic marks, and the bigger picture is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. At 35-50, the Giants are now on pace for a 67-95 season, raising legitimate questions about where this organization is headed over the second half. We compare the Giants' trajectory to recent teams that made managerial changes and discuss whether Tony Vitello, Buster Posey, or the front office could eventually face increased scrutiny if things don't improve. Plus, the news gets even tougher with Matt Chapman leaving the game with an abdominal strain. An MRI will determine the severity of the injury, and with Chapman already scheduled for paternity leave, the Giants could be without one of their hottest hitters at a critical point in the season. We also break down another difficult outing for Landen Roupp, why the Diamondbacks continue to have the Giants' number, and preview the series finale as San Francisco searches for something positive to build on.
