San Francisco Giants podcast with Morris Phillips: Beede goes back down to the minors, Giants look to who can start next

photo from nbcsportsbayarea: Tyler Beede’s first stint in the big leagues is over after his second start, and the coaching staff has advice as heads back to the minors.

On the Giants podcast with Morris:

#1 The Giants’ Tyler Beede is headed back to the farm. He was demoted after Sunday’s game after going three-plus and scattering six hits and five runs.

#2 Beede looks at the experience as positive and wants to work on a few things and hopes the phone rings again and hopes this was more than a cup of coffee.

#3 Catcher Buster Posey sat out Sunday’s contest, resting his sore right thumb. Posey took a swing during the series and didn’t feel the same strength that he would normally feel and had to sit down. Posey is expected back by Tuesday night in Arizona.

#4 The Giants and Beede got ripped in the contest, but the relief staff also wasn’t able to hold it together. This has to be a concern for Giants manager Bruce Bochy.

#5 The Giants continue this road trip to Arizona starting Tuesday night. The Diamondbacks continue to roll now at 11-3 and in first place in the NL West.
