So, how about the San Francisco Giants?

the giants were 57-33 heading into the all star break last year. since then they have gone 57-94

think about this season for the mets. they have been a laughing stock. their mascot was fired this year for doing this



and they just swept the giants in san francisco by a combined score of 24-8

they entered the year with legit expectations. their odds at making the playoffs to start the year were 66.8% and now they are .2%

they lost their superstar player due to a dirt bike injury and their "second ace" is having one of the worst seasons of his career. the closer they brought in to fix their bullpen issues from last year? well....

their pitching has been mediocre but the offense has just been.... they have a team wOBA of .290, wRC+ of 87, and ISO of .131 sooooo yea.

ill let grant brisbee some it up

In the eighth inning of Sunday’s ballgame, as the Giants were in the middle of getting swept at home by the Mets, who have been allergic to winning and good fortune this year, fans started booing Josh Osich*. Except the fans weren’t really booing the left-handed reliever on the mound. They were booing it all. The events on the field. The loss of a Sunday afternoon. The broken promises. The ashes of burned expectations. The miserable future, unspeakably bare in the shadow of the recent past. They were booing the Giants as a concept, not a specific pitcher. Because the Giants right now are a cataclysmic failure on a level that we haven’t seen for 100 years. And they were supposed to be good.

The 2017 Giants are bad. They’re historically bad. They’re five games behind the Padres, who started the season with a rotation of Jered Weaver, Scountly Fernst, Arbor Darlor, Jeff Suppan, and Umbadlo Jimenez, Not Umbaldo Jimenez, and a payroll that was sending more money to players who weren’t on the roster than players on it. The Giants, in other words, are sub-replacement. The Padres were almost literally a replacement-level team this year, by design, and the Giants are out-replacementing them. They were just swept by the Mets, at home, and the Mets have been one of the most miserable stories of the season. Not this miserable, though. Not this miserable.

is this one of the most insane sustained collapse a baseball franchise has had in recent memory?
