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

What's up Giants fans? I'm Cole Kuyper here with Alex Pavlovich, and we're the host of Giants Talk, coming

to you with some more off-season lockout baseball content on the NBC Sports Podcast Network,

available wherever you listen to your pods.

After a promising Monday night, Alex, baseball is not looking too hot right now.

Were you up at midnight 1 a.m. following the Nightingale tweets?

Yeah, was I spending my entire night and Bob Nightingale's mentions?

Yes, yes, of course I was.

Big night for Bob.

I will say this day sucks, but, you know, if anybody needs a little levity in their life,

just go back through Bob Nane Gil's tweets from Monday night.

And I love Bob, really nice guy.

The mentions and the memes people were making and the Photoshop's they were making were unbelievable.

So, you know, a little bit of fun when people thought they had hope.

I think it was very orchestrated by the owners, but, you know, to give people hope.

But it was nice to see Giants, see baseball Twitter, like back for a moment.

It made me just desperate for more baseball.

If that's what the owners were after by giving me a glimmer of hope and getting the fans energized, it worked because I am in the mood.

But unfortunately, the start of the season has been canceled.

I believe I saw on your Twitter account that it's the first two series are out for the

giants that's the podres in the brewer so everyone who bought those extra tasty tickets to

opening day in san diego giants podres i do apologize look i'm not trying to make this about me
