2025 San Francisco Giants Season Thread

Time for the Giants to find a new catcher.

Whatever Bailey loses in framing he'll gain in throwing out baserunners at an even higher rate. Plus he still calls a great game. This pitching staff has been elite.

That Adames/Ramos near collision could've ended badly.

What a bonanza of runs

Let's hope they didn't use up their quota for the week.

Good cathers are hard to find. Most are average hitters at best and many aren't great defensively. When you get one that can do both like Posey you hit the jackpot.

Seattle has a really good one right now. Cal Raleigh is tied with Ohtani for the league lead in HRs and has about the same OPS and slugging percentage. He's also a good defensive cather. Bailey has a better arm and throws out more runners but of course his hitting is nowhere near what Raleigh is doing.

i'd reach out to baltimore who is going nowhere and maybe we can flip bailey and someone for adley.

He would be an upgrade at the plate but he's not quite as good behind the plate. Overall I don't know how much they gain with that trade especially since the pitchers love the way Bailey frames the pitches. Pitchers can be very temperamental. He also throws out a lot of runners..

Whats the logic behind this? How is one correlated to the other? Its not like he is framing pitches on steal attempts now.

There is no way Baltimore would be interested in trading Adley for Bailey and "someone". What's wrong with you people. LOL. The Giants would drool over the chance to get him and would gain a LOT.
