He was my favorite Giant and there’s no close 2nd... oh yeah, except for Hunter Pence.

The Freak!

This rebuild is going to be pretty difficult if I keep watching these. Those years were the most fun I've ever had as a fan. I don't know if we'll ever field a team quite like that again.

In terms of peak he’s one of the absolute best pitchers I ever so. At one point he was unhittable.

[u/Angelsfan14]

An inspiration to those of us shorter guys who wanted to be pitchers. I was sad he wasnt able to make a comeback of sorts with the Angels :(

His sinker that fell off the table was filthy.
