The Giants lost again — this time 5-1 to the Padres — and their offensive crisis has hit rock bottom. Just 4 hits, 1 run, and strikeouts piling up at historic rates. In today’s episode, we dive deep into the Giants’ broken hitting philosophy, why their approach isn’t working, and whether it’s already too late to make personnel changes with Bob Melvin and Pat Burrell.

Kai-Wei Teng continues to struggle with command, and while he may not project as a long-term starter, his development tells us a lot about where the Giants’ rotation stands heading into the offseason. With young arms like Carson Whisenhunt, Hayden Birdsong, and Blade Tidwell waiting in the wings, who has the best chance to lock down rotation spots in 2026?
