Official 2023 San Francisco Giants Off-Season Thread - Jung Hoo Lee signs with SF 6-years $113 Million

One of two things will happen w/ Strickland.

1) He'll learn from getting hammered
2) He'll be Rick Ankiel 2.0
 
Strickland has gotten Lidge'd this postseason.  Whatever future we thought he had has blown up.

Now this dude has fired up the Royals trying to be a tough guy.  Let him sit next to Lincecum the rest of the series.

I was semi-serious...don't want to burn up all our relief down 5 in the 6th.

I'll let coach dland interject though.
 
Lets hope Strickland punches a wall and eliminates himself as an option for Bochy.

Machi + Strickland ... Bochy botched that.  
 
Since relief pitchers don't get that much burn, can they be used every game of the series?

Or is that poor strategy?
 
Petit was doing great this postseason, but they went with the two guys giving up hits all over the place.  
 
As soon as Strickland threw that wild pitch, I could see the wheels coming off...too young, wanted to make the "perfect" pitch. Perfect pitches become very hitable at this level.

Posey absolutely should have gone back to the breaking ball the very next pitch.
