Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley wrap up the Giants’ season with a tale of two very different endings. First, they celebrate Mike Krukow’s final broadcast and the incredible legacy he and Duane Kuiper built together.Then things get a little less sentimental. Buster Posey and Tony Vitello faced the media after a 97-loss season, and Connor and Kerry have plenty of questions about what they heard—and, more importantly, what they didn’t hear. Plus:— The final Kruk and Kuip broadcast and the moments that made it special— Krukow’s incredible farewell speech— The Giants’ 65–97 season and the end-of-season press conference— Buster Posey’s assessment of Tony Vitello’s first season— Former Giants scattered across the playoff fieldSubscribe to Connor’s newsletter at giantspostcards.com and leave a rating or review—the guys will read it on the show.
Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley return with something they haven’t had much of this season: good vibes. The Giants swept the Cardinals, mounted a ridiculous comeback with two outs, and gave us a glimpse of what this team could look like with Rafael Devers and Bryce Eldridge leading the way.They also ask the bigger question: What would it feel like to actually believe the Giants have a chance to contend every year again? Plus, a look back at the glory days of 2021—and three very reasonable, definitely-not-overreactions about the current team.On today’s postcard:— What the 49ers have that the Giants need— This week in 2021, feat. The Sac Fly (11:10)— Devers and Eldridge give us a glimpse of the future (21:49)— Three overreactions on These Giants vs. Those Giants (37:30)Subscribe to Connor’s newsletter at giantspostcards.com and leave us a rating or review.
Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley return to make sense—and most importantly, make light—of a peculiar stretch of Giants baseball. The guys try to run through all 35 pitchers who have appeared in a game, then recap their experience following the bonkers Pirates game.Plus, Rafael Devers is on an absurd heater, Turner Hill and Trent Harris are making cases to stick around, and the Giants keep doing Giants things. On today's postcard:— How many of the club's 35 pitchers can the guys remember?— Paul Skenes, Logan Webb, and one wild Giants-Pirates game— Turner Hill, Jonah Cox, and guys making their case— Rafael Devers has entered Barry Bonds territory— The Giants’ precarious relationship with Kalshi Subscribe to Connor’s newsletter at giantspostcards.com.
Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley return to a Giants team that’s getting harder and harder to recognize. One hundred losses is suddenly a real possibility, but there are still a few reasons to believe the future could look very different.The guys dig into Rafael Devers’ emergence, a handful of intriguing young pitchers, and a farm system that has gone from an organizational weakness to one of baseball’s best. They also ask whether Buster Posey moved too quickly by declaring Tony Vitello’s return, and what 100 losses would actually mean for this Giants team.Plus:— Rafael Devers is finally looking like the hitter the Giants traded for— The auditions of Blade Tidwell, “Tugboat,” Trent Harris, and Dylan Smith— Why was Tony Vitello's return declared so soon?— What would 100 losses mean for Buster Posey and the Giants?Subscribe to Connor’s newsletter at giantspostcards.com and leave us a rating or review if you’re still hanging in there.
Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley open with the news Giants fans knew was coming but weren't ready for. Connor reflects on what Mike Krukow meant to him not just as a broadcaster but as a teacher—how hundreds of hours of listening shaped the way he watches baseball today. Then it's on to a major story on Buster Posey published this week by The Athletic, which gave Connor and Kerry plenty to dig into: why Buster took the job in the first place, what he might want to go back on, whether he's surrounded himself with people who challenge him, and what the future of the Tony Vitello era actually looks like.On today's postcard:What Mike Krukow means to us (0:37)Takeaways from the Buster Posey deep dive (17:03)Favorite memories from Giants' newest Wall of Famers (41:44)
