Much has been made of Giants hitting woes this month. Especially focusing on rookies and MIF. But what’s been the bigger issue in July is lack of production from the key veterans - with the exception of Wilmer and to a lesser extent Conforto. To wit:

Yaz - .103/.268/.353/.486
Davis. .196/.268/353/621
Joc. .140/255/256/511
Slater 167/323/458/792 (except for .ba not bad, but he’s been slumping a bit)

This is not going to continue. One or more will heat up. And maybe Conforto will get hot. He’s had a decent year. Nothing special. Time to pick it up from here on out.

When the vets start to hit again, that should take some pressure off Schmitt, Bailey, Matos, Wisely.  

If I’m FZ, I count on my veteran hitters picking it up much more than I do Stripling, Wood, DeSclafani etc being able to pitch effectively down the stretch. Which is another reason Im first looking at acquiring an SP. ,
