Show Notes
The San Francisco Giants are off to a disastrous start, losing their first three home games to the Yankees and scoring just one run. This is the tenth team in history to start 0-3 with one run or fewer, and none of them made the playoffs. The last team to do this at home, the 2016 Padres, finished with a dismal 68-94 record. Historical data shows that slow starters like the Giants often struggle, with nine other teams starting with one run or less over three games and finishing with records ranging from 54-107 to 83-79. The Giants offense looks thin, especially against contenders, and they need wins fast to avoid a losing season. Meanwhile, six left-handed rookies had a strong debut, and lefties are dominating the league, outslugging righties by 23 OPS points. The Giants next matchup against the Mets could make or break their week.
