Some good news at the bitter end. They finished 81-81, so hit .500. Adames hit his 30th home run, breaking a 21 year streak of Giants not having a 30+ home run hitter since Barry Bonds. Adames had 30, Devers finished with 34, Ramos and Chapman had 21. Casey Schmitt had 12 in 2/3rds of a season. Matos had eight in 1/3rd of a season. Jung Hoo Lee led the team in doubles (31) and triples (12) by a mile.
Logan Webb finished 15-11, 3.22 ERA. Led the NL in strikeouts with 224 and innings pitched with 207. Robbie Ray finished 11-8. Landon Roupp won 7. No one else won more than five.
Giants finished 28-30 in one run games. In 10 of those thirty, they gave up unearned runs. Four of the ten, they gave up two or more unearned runs. The difference between playoffs and not-playoffs was rasor thin.
Will Melvin keep his job? At 81-81, maybe. If the players want him back, probably. On the other hand, Posey (and everyone else) wanted to make the playoffs.
