Quotable:

"I had nothing to say, just give him a pat on the butt"

Kapler on “closer” Trevor Gott

August 9th

Giants acquire a young outfielder from the Chicago White Sox. This Giants’ front office continues to build the farm system- seemingly with nothing as the Giants traded only cash considerations to get Basabe. A career highlight for Basabe was hitting a ROCKET of a home run off Hunter Greene in the 2018 Futures Game in DC.

"(Basabe) is a guy with arm strength and speed…a history of success in the minor leagues…a switch hitter, a real ceiling"

–#SFGiants Manager Gabe Kapler

One of these is not like the others…

So Giants Twitter is pretty heated about Kapler pulling Gausman after just 80 pitches. This tweet was retweeted by Larry Krueger.

"I definitely felt like I had more in the tank…80 pitches isn't my limit."
