Totally agree with you on Chapman, Lowell. And now the Giants did give him that long-term contract. I had the same reaction when I heard people sayinig he was having a great season. Just a season better than most of the other players on this average team. His strikeout rate is way too high, and I am also old school and believe batting average matters.. Chapman had a strong finish to the season, but by then the Giants were out of it, so it didn't matter. He and a few others who had strong finishes, like Conforto, did not do the job when needed to get the Giants into the playoffs.

Long time listener, first time caller...will never forget your famous column which described sitting in lawn chair, listening to giants game on portable radio at the godforsaken 7th and Townsend site which the late Dianne Feinstein thought would be a swell place to build a ballpark...it's good to read you again,...love Grant's stuff and The Cohn Zone...
