Episode Details

The San Francisco Giants just wrapped up another solid series, beating the Oakland Athletics after taking a series from the San Diego Padres and splitting with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The problem? Even with better baseball lately, they still haven’t gained much ground — a reminder of just how deep the early-season hole was and how hot they’ll have to get moving forward.

The bigger conversation now might be the pitching staff. With Logan Webb nearing a return, should the Giants seriously consider a six-man rotation? Trevor McDonald has simply been too good to ignore, and both Andrew Baggarly and Mike Krukow made strong cases for keeping him in the mix. From dominating division opponents to bringing visible confidence to the mound, McDonald is quickly forcing the organization into a difficult decision.

We break down the pros and cons of a potential six-man setup, why the Giants may already be trending in that direction philosophically, and preview a key upcoming series against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
