#SFGiants manager Gabe Kapler prides himself on analytics and matchups.

You want F-bombs? The #SFGiants have F-bombs. Too many F-bombs that can be heard over the nothingness without fans. The last one Monday night came when Trevor Gott gave it up again in the ninth a two-run homer, another demoralizing loss. Story: https://t.co/3q4b0X5zqv

"In the short term, we may need to look for a softer landing spot for him and evaluate what other options we have for the high leverage moments." - Gabe Kapler on Trevor Gott pic.twitter.com/X3pjazsfo8

Gabe Kapler said he'll look at other options in high leverage spots, and a "softer landing spot to try and build some confidence" for Trevor Gott. Said he still has confidence in him long term.

Here comes Trevor Gott to pitch the 9th. Prepare yourselves #SFGiants fans

If Trevor Gott does this three or four more times, Gabe Kapler might have to consider someone else to close

Just a thought but how about no Gott next save opportunity? For the sake of everyone involved

The Giants lost 7-6. Tommy La Stella hit a walk-off homer off Trevor Gott, who has given up 11 runs in his last three appearances.

You could choose to detest Trevor Gott or you could choose to have sympathy for him. He's a good reliever who is living a nightmare over these past four days.
