This is interesting. Atlanta was going to swap 19 for 17 last night to get Kevin Huerter but because Woj was tipping picks, they pulled out of the deal because they knew Huerter would be there. espn.com/nba/story/_/id…

Judging from manager Bruce Bochy's comments, Johnny Cueto might have been a lot closer to Tommy John surgery than we thought. His 48-pitch rehab start in Sacramento on Saturday was a big deal. Plus lineups, Sunday game setup. Story: sfchronicle.com/giants/article…

This team is missing big pieces like Samardzija, Evan Longoria and Johnny Cueto. But up and down the roster, you’ll find productive players. There aren’t many liabilities.
That brings us to Hunter Pence and Austin Jackson. It was the right move to send down Williamson to give Slater a chance to contribute. Slater was hitting at Sacramento, and Williamson was struggling here. The Giants saw what kind of impact Williamson can make when he has his timing and confidence. He needs to play every day, and he’ll get that chance with the River Cats.
So, yes, Pence and Jackson remain a part of this team. And yes, Bochy will look for opportunities to involve them as more than pinch hitters.
SUNDAY:
This is what Pence delivered with one out and the bases loaded off Padres closer Brad Hand: a reach-out poke at an 0-2 curveball and a skidder that left the bat with an exit velocity of 73.3 mph, at a launch angle of minus-1 degree, with a hit probability of 13 percent. The charitable description is to say it was well placed. It was ugly-beautiful. It also counted. And it made all the difference.

On this day 4 years ago, Tim Lincecum pitched his 10th career complete game and 2nd career no-hitter. At the plate that day, Lincecum had 2 hits, walked once and scored twice. Just another footnote in a fantastic MLB career for Lincecum. #sfgiantspic.twitter.com/urMUZ8xvRK

What a city for only the rich looks like: San Francisco can't find waiters because service workers can't afford to live there. So they just get rid of them. At restaurants, people now scout their own table, refill their own water, go to the restaurant bar to order a drink, etc twitter.com/emilymbadger/s…
