BOB ON WISELY

-AUSTIN SLATER IS GETTING LOCKED IN - THE RIGHT CHOICE WAS MADE WITH MATOS….. SO FAR….
| |
| |  |  | |  |  | | Austin Slater is making an impact and rewarding the Giants’ trust in him. Is it Jorge Soler’s turn next? Giants hitting coach Pat Burrell, who knows something about enduring failure as a full-time DH, thinks so. nytimes.com/athletic/55602… | | | | 6/12/24, 8:45 PM |

| |  | | | | | Austin Slater said an extended rehab assignment post-concussion helped him find his swing and rhythm. Something he couldn't do mostly injured in spring.
Looks like it's starting to pay off. He's 3-for-3 with 2 RBI and a stolen base today and 6-for-11 in 4 games since his… | | | | 6/12/24, 1:53 PM |

PILLAR COMOING IN HOT

ESPN -= “WHAT EACH TEAM MUST DO BEFORE THE DEADLINE” UNDER “NOT OUT OF IT …YET”
Win average: 79.1 (Last: 77.6, 18th)
In the playoffs: 21.2% (Last: 16.9%)
Champions: 0.2% (Last 0.1%)
What they need to do before the deadline: Some of it has been good. Logan Webbhas been doing Logan Webb things. Matt Chapman has been a free agent hit. Heliot Ramos has emerged as one of baseball's hottest players and might have finally turned the corner in his development. But the Giants' pitching has been mediocre at best and a big disappointment at worst. They need to get Blake Snell back, and when he returns, they need it to turn out to be a good thing to have Blake Snell back, because the 9.51 ERA version of him wasn't working. Robbie Ray is nearing a return to the majors as well. You can still envision a rotation of Webb, Snell, Ray, Jordan Hicks and Kyle Harrison leading a second-half charge. That's the unit that must lead the way for Frisco. Then we can start puzzling over the bullpen.

3- 49ERS—-
A- COULD IT BE A BOSA ON EACH SIDE????
JOEY:
COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Los Angeles Chargers outside linebacker Joey Bosa, who took a pay cut to remain with the team this season and was the subject of offseason trade rumors, said he has had conversations about playing with his brother, Nick, the San Francisco 49ers' All-Pro OLB, though they have never been serious.
"It'd be cool at some point," Joey Bosa said Wednesday. "I always thought of myself being somebody that will play here and retire here, which I think not many people do on one team and I think would be a cool thing to accomplish, but you never know. I'm going to worry about this year first."
Bosa had two years remaining on a five-year, $135 million contract extension he signed in 2020. He was viewed as a potential cut or trade candidate for the salary cap-strapped Chargers this offseason but restructured his deal in March to stay with them. He has an $8 million guaranteed base salary this season and no guaranteed money in 2025, potentially making this his final season in Los Angeles.
Bosa has played just 14 games over the past two seasons, missing time with hamstring, foot and toe injuries. The frustration of those injuries was evident when Bosa left the field in tears after spraining his foot in a Week 11 loss to the Green Bay Packers last season that sidelined him for the remainder of the year. Bosa attempted to return from that injury late in the season but sprained another part of his foot in practice, he said.
He avoided surgery on his foot but said he had offseason surgery on his finger for a separate injury that he didn't specify.
"My foot's feeling great. Toe's good. The hamstring's good. I mean, there was a list of things last year, my hand, so all those things are good," Bosa said. "It's nice to be feeling better going into Year 9 than you have since maybe five, six years ago.
"I've said I've been feeling great the last couple years. It's the real deal this time, but obviously anything can happen. But it's fun, feeling really confident in your body and being able to perform."
