Welcome to the Giants Talk podcast. Here's Alex Pavlovich and Cole Kuiper. I know those guys.

Hey, everyone. Welcome to Giants Talk. I'm Cole Kuyper here with Alex Pavlovich. We got another fun one.

Quite a bit to talk about right off the bat. We're going to be diving into the newest member of the orange and black, the Yerminator.

I'm going to talk how the Giants took two of three from the pirates, which is better than the Dodgers did earlier this year.

And a little bit about what else is on the horizon

in the next couple of series. But before we go any further, as you well now, Giants Talk is presented

by Wendy's Breakfast. Do breakfast better wake up to oven-baked bacon, savory sausage in a breakfast

baconator. Start looking forward to tomorrow morning at participating US.S. Wendy's during breakfast hours.

Only, Alex, have you ever seen someone more excited to get claimed by the San Francisco

Giants than Yermann Mercedes?

No, he went straight to Instagram, which somebody who knows him told me he will go straight

to Instagram.

Not only, I think, you know,

obviously the one that got out there on Twitter was him pouring champagne on himself, uh, shirtless

and would appear to be like a driveway somewhere. And not like a friend hosing him down. Yeah. But I think

more impressive was the, uh, Photoshop had kind of the, you know, we have social media.

We have graphics staffs for this stuff.

So either Yerman has a graphics guy or he's just very quick on the, on the Photoshop.

He had it up right away.

That's what he's been doing.

Since he retired from Major League Baseball, he's been really practicing his skills in the Adobe Suite.

Yeah.
