Parts of the Central Valley near the bay are _already_ below sea level: I wonder how big an earthquake it would take to open up a channel?

I don't think that's possible with the transverse faults we have here because the Pacific plate is moving northward relative to the North American plate, carrying some extreme coastal bits of land with it. Point Reyes will be in Alaska someday, though.
