It looks like he is finally got his shit back together.  Spice since you see him more than anyone here how has he been looking ?

Tay:
Honestly, most Giants fans gave up on him by mid-season last year at the latest, so anything good he does is a pleasant surprise. He pitched better at the end of last season, so he has shown signs of it. I've read that his fastball velocity is up 1 or 2 mph, so that would help. But the biggest thing is location, obviously. He has been getting ahead in counts and it has helped his composure, he used to look like he was battling himself out there.

S P I C E:
Yeah what Tay said is on point.  The extra 3 mph on the fastball has helped a lot but really his mental focus and ability to get ahead of hitters is what has helped him the most.  The guy finally seems focused and honestly he looks pissed off now when he is pitching lol, I think 2 straight terrible years finally has him motivated and ready to prove everyone wrong who gave up on him which is basically every Giants fan alive.  I am really starting to get pumped about this team, we have a legit shot at winning this division and our starting pitching can give us a chance in any series but I just wish we could find a way to add a big bat for the middle of our "lineup"

you really believe that, ey?   hey, whatever helps you sleep better at night!  8)

in all seriousness tho...if yall pull a trade for a bat, and yall pitching holds up, then it should be close.   on the other hand..if we make a trade here and there, maybe get a good SP and some RP, and we could just run away with this shit.  8) 8) 8)

S P I C E:
Giants are just as good as Dodgers and without Manny we can b better. U swept us early but last 2 series we have taken 2 out of 3. Don't get too excited about your fast start, the Giants are just as good.
