During our show today, the Giants made a trade for AJ Pollock and Mark Mathias from the Mariners for our favorite “player to be named later.” Other than that, the Giants have less than 24 hours to pull off additional trades, and this one certainly doesn’t move the needle with an aging 35-year-old Pollock hitting under .200 on the year and currently on the IL. What is surprising, is despite the 6-game losing streak, the Giants won 4 of 5 and have the third best record in the NL, hold the first wild card spot, and are only 2 games behind the Dodgers. That’s a great position to be in. That said, we looked forward to August and what lies ahead is gonna be tough with two series against the Braves, and series against the Rays, Phillies, and Reds. Lots of winning teams coming up, but the Giants have to stay at or above .500 to keep in the race. It’s gonna be an interesting month.

No video stream this week.
