The Giants have a tough road ahead, with 66 games left on their schedule. Mike Krukow notes that the team needs to get going, especially with the trade deadline looming on August 3rd.

Krukow weighs in on the debate among fans, who are torn between keeping him and trading him for a prospect. He notes that Rise is a valuable asset, but also a player who wants to play second base, which could be a factor in any potential trade.
