Whoever this woman screaming right now is…LOVES Melvin

This the is kind of loss (and losing streak) that will typically result in a firing for MOST teams… I still believe no one will be fired until the team is “officially” eliminated from playoff contention.

“It is real…please take it.”

To net something of “significance“ it would be Webb (by a mile), but that’s not a convo the FO will have this week.

Yup
2026 (or 7):
-newly hired Vogt/Matheny/etc hands baseball to closer…
- 3 pitches and a grand slam later: camera cut to Manager—Then camera cuts to GM…

Nope, not happening that way

Two things: he’s gone if they don’t make the playoffs. Period.

I agree 100% on his bullpen issues, but that won’t come into posey’s thinking on whether Melvin keeps his job or not (imo)

They stuck with Bochy after 09, and the FO is dreaming/hoping Melvin can replicate even the smallest goals (playoffs) if they give him another chance.

They already set the stage for his departure in a few months with this last paragraph from the sf chronicle on that dreaded vote of confidence (DVOC):

K we gotta wish Chuck back

We had a pair in our palm tree the last few months…it was endgame

Ok, I probably shouldn’t wait much longer to buy my ticket to the Pokemon game at the end of August…

He’ll be fine.

That FIP bump is pretty bad, but I’m still a big believer. I think he’ll be fine. He should (and likely will) be heading to sac, but who can honestly replace him at this moment down there?

Awesome!

I LOVED it (and ABS) but this would be a miserable experience and force the league to reconsider after just a few swing-offs at Oracle Park.

Yes, I know it’s terrible ideas. Whatever

Me: at this point, let him work on his secondary pitches again 👨🏾‍🏫

SCOOP: Mamdani did something even we are forced to concede wasn't what it we are also making it sound like, to no tangible gain, for a college he didn't go to, 15 years ago. Our anonymous source is political activist Adolf Hitler

I’m going for Pokemon Go at the end of August (vs orioles)…I have a feeling tickets won’t be hard to get.

He’s very likely going to get an extension — and unless they fall off BAD bad they would never move on until the season was over.

you can literally just vote out the gerontocrats

Look who isn’t afraid to speak out.

The Beach Boys were better than The Beatles. Don’t believe the propaganda and revisionist history.

Honestly this is a pretty good response

Feels like they’re(FO) holding back on a tough decision on Wade for a few more days. I bet his move gets buried in promotions for the kids: Eldridge, Tibbs, etc
