Silver and JD continue the discussion of San Francisco's pitching struggles and the importance of making moves to improve the bullpen. They also touch on the recent performance of Bryce Eldridge, who has been a bright spot for the team, and how his consistent playing time has led to improved results. We also explore the idea that the Giants may be waiting too long to make moves, and that dealing players like Logan Webb could be a sign of forward thinking. They discuss the potential benefits of trading Webb now, rather than waiting until closer to the trade deadline, and how this could impact the team's future prospects.
