I'm not sure what the question mark means, but "Bud Coombs?" leading the Big 10 in OPS on Baseball-Reference is killing me

I don't have a gift link but here is the Kruk portion

"I think that you have the right as a player to believe and say whatever you want," said the team's beloved broadcaster Mike Krukow. "But you have to take a broader look at the city you're playing in. What makes San Francisco so great is the acceptance of others - ethnicities, opinions, cultures - and that extends to the gay community.

"I would just hope they would understand the demographic of San Francisco and respect people for who they are. What you do to your uniform, that has weight to it. You can offend people. And why would you do that?"

Pride is an issue close to Krukow's heart. His son Wes is gay and is married to his partner, Ted. Wes, a dancer, is currently performing in Phantom of the Opera at the Orpheum.

"I'm so proud of him," Krukow said. "I've seen gay life through my son's eyes. The culture and the community is so beautiful."

For those saying the bible quotes yesterday were meant to be supportive, not hateful…

Tweet retweeted by Trevor McDonald: “Jesus’ love isn’t about accepting your lifestyle, it’s about transforming your life”

Come to McCovey Chronicles Bluesky for the stupid bit about perfect games. Stay on McCovey Chronicles Bluesky for the philosophical discussions of social media's role in our life

Bluesky conversation.

Brian responds to McCovey Chronicles saying "Waaaaay too many posts." McCovey responds "it's social media my guy, that's the entire point." Brian says, "Nah. Its to communicate something of value. Reporting every batter is obsession." McCovey sais, "no, it's to communicate whatever I want to communicate. my role is to post the way I want to post. you can choose to follow if you want or don't follow if you don't want it. that's why there's a follow button instead of having things forced onto your screen. if you don't want it, that's cool."

McCovey Chronicles@mccoveychronicles· Mar 22

Today's news: giants sign reliever Ryan Borucki hours before opening day

I trust Baggarly over Morosi, but I sure hope my trust isn’t rewarded

Tweet from Jon Morosi: “the Giants are active on multiple free-agent starters. While it does not appear that a deal is close, they are in a good position to land one of the upper-tier arms”

Plus, he's already familiar with the ballpark

McCovey Chronicles@mccoveychronicles· Sep 4

Screenshot from an Andrew Baggarly article saying: "It's everything," Adames said. "The things he says, the things he does. He's just crazy. I can't tell you examples. It'd be over the line, way, way over the line. But he is definitely funny."

Interesting tidbit from @andrewbaggarly.bsky.social article yesterday ... clearly something changed overnight! www.nytimes.com/athletic/656...

Text: "The Giants pitching staff is less than fine. They are planning to give right-hander Kai-Wei Teng another start Sunday in Milwaukee despite mixed results in his brief big-league trial. Their options to replace Roupp are even less palatable"

This tidbit from @andrewbaggarly.bsky.social today could be fueling a little extra hesitation to trade Doval. With Walker still struggling and it not being clear Rodríguez can be an everyday closer, Doval is a pretty damn vital piece for 2026. www.nytimes.com/athletic/652...
