With five top 100 prospects in Baseball America's rankings, Connor and Kerry dig into what the organization needs to get right after years of drafts that didn't deliver. They also map out what a successful second half actually looks like—less circus, more baseball—and which surprise storylines are worth watching as the season enters its final stretch.

The Giants Had Their Worst Day in Years

Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley are back after one of the strangest and most uncomfortable weeks the Giants have had in years. What started as a press conference with Buster Posey quickly spiraled into an organizational headache.

Please Don't Trade Logan Webb

Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley are back. Fresh off a trip to Omaha for the College World Series, Connor joins Kerry to discuss a Giants team that suddenly sounds willing to listen to offers on key players. The guys break down why Logan Webb remains the most fascinating name in all of this, why they still can't envision the Giants trading him, and what it would mean if the organization seriously considered moving on from cornerstone veterans. They also discuss the Giants' continued struggles at Oracle Park, why an offense-first approach still feels like a poor fit for San Francisco, and the challenges facing a team staring down 23 consecutive games. Plus: Connor shares observations from the College World Series, the Giants' recent wins over Atlanta, and thoughts on the controversy surrounding Pride Night.

Bryce Eldridge capped the team's biggest comeback since moving to San Francisco with a walk-off grand slam. What does it mean for today, tomorrow, and 2027? Connor and Kerry relive where they were for the moment, break down Jon Miller's marvelous call, and discuss what it means for a fan base that has spent years waiting for a homegrown star to break through.
