Small sample size vibes

In the 6th inning of yesterday’s eventual win, I started gathering information about the last time the San Francisco Giants had a 3-7 start. It wasn’t a fun bit of data. In the past 30 years, it’s happened just five times: 2000, 2007, 2009, 2015, and 2019. Thankfully, 4-6 starts have wider variance and so we can focus on what matters: the team’s vibes through 10 games.

The Lineup

Michael Conforto

He’s the team’s best hitter by far with a batting line of .351/.415/.703 with 4 doubles, 3 HR and 10 RBI, placing him in the top 15 of all MLB in terms of offensive output (202 wRC+).
