  1. Craw leaving really hurt but knowing Casey is here and has a very likeable persona eases the pain. Good luck kid. We got your back. Hum Baby

  2. Remember watching pat Burrell in 2010 when on the World Series run. Also my friend had him as a high school coach at one point said he was funny and a great coach 🤣

  3. I hope he becomes a corner stone in the franchise man, he so electric on the defense of side and can smash ball. Hopefully I get to see him play in person vs the dodgers in June!

  4. Burrell looks like he’s going to be an awesome coach. Viele looked like he had no clue what he was trying to say. Schmitt is going to be a good player for a while hope he gets a legit chance.

  5. Baseball players are so down to earth compared to Athletes. I honestly think it’s because not only are they drafted at a super young age, but they also spend a couple of years in the Minor Leagues playing baseball with/against other “nobodies” and making next to nothing. You’re not special, you’re not famous and you’re almost not even considered professional. Your chances to making it to the MLB are so slim because of how large the talent pool is and even if you do your chances of staying the MLB are pretty much nothing. You’re not getting big contracts and fame for YEARS.

    Unlike Football where you get signed a $13 Million dollar contract out of College and the competition for your position is a much smaller pool.

  6. it's always hilarious seeing Yaz behaving like a superstar even though he wouldn't be an everyday player in any other team in the majors

  7. Not even a big fan of the Giants but I loved every minute of this. Wish you guys nothing but the best this year, except when you play against my Dodgers haha. Love the day in the life stuff!
