In the storied history of the San Francisco Giants, the team has had many ups and downs. Around ten years ago, the team was freshly off three World Series wins in the span of five years, an unprecedented run of success. Today, the club sits at 57-81. With 24 games to go, that means the team is legitimately in danger of losing 100 games by season’s end.<\/p>\n

In the 144-year history of the Giants franchise dating back to their New York roots, they have only experienced one instance of finishing with triple digits in the loss column, according to MLB.com’s official record. However, an 8-19 finish would see that old lightning strike for the second time in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never been into streaks and those kinds of numbers,\u201d manager Tony Vitello said<\/a>, according to the Miami Herald. \u201cBut it\u2019s not good.\u201d<\/p>\n

The San Francisco Giants are largely irrelevant nowadays and I often forget they exist.<\/p>\n

They play completely uninspiring baseball, are far too focused on woke social warriorism, and are constantly in a battle for last place.<\/p>\n

At the same time, veteran shortstop Willy Adames<\/a> feels like a losing season is a losing season, regardless of what the official, final tally reads. The former All-Star has been through his fair share of baseball battles, and his feeling is… You either go to the playoffs, or you go home. End of story.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo me, what difference does it make if you lose 95 or 100 games?\u201d Adames said. \u201cYou\u2019re out of the race; what\u2019s the point of the discussion? I see it as a disappointment either way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Perhaps the team’s baseball boss, Buster Posey<\/a>, puts it in perspective. The star catcher on those three title teams of the 2010s, he’s seen his share of winning – and losing – by the Bay. Now, he’s charged with being the architect of a totally restructured franchise, and he realizes these growing pains have to be expected. At the same time, the president of baseball operations knows that his moves must pay off if the team is going to recover from its recent woes.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s one of those round numbers that you want to avoid,\u201d Posey said. \u201cNow, if you lose 98 or 99 games, I don\u2019t know if it makes that big of a difference, but would we like to avoid losing 100? Yes. Yeah.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re trying to find the positive in some of these things when there have been a lot of tough moments and negatives this year. One positive is being able to see how these guys play at the highest level.\u201d<\/p>\n
