To get truly into this POST-GAME, I’d advise looping this theme song in the background.
One was born in Leesburg, Georgia… Population: 2,633. The other, Aguadilla, Puerto Rico… Population: 64,685. One played in 172 minor league games. The other, 1,022. One has an amazing, truly flawless swing. The other had a different swing last year.
But these two guys, who are completely different, shared the same spotlight in Thursday night’s 3-0 win. They’re the new Odd Couple.
Well Northern California is getting a lot of money.. And by Northern California I mean the owners of the 49ers and the Giants..
Baggs reports that if the players sign off on it, the San Francisco Giants will be playing the Arizona Diamondbacks for two games in Taiwan..
So the 49ers to London, Giants to Taiwan, what’s next? The Kings playing the Warriors in Afghanistan?
I could maybe see promoting the league in a place like London, but I’m not Bud Selig. Sounds like someone lost a little too much money on black in Vegas last week..
Well this is the part of the year where we start wondering if we really can get guys like Chipper Jones and Sammy Sosa for a discount price..
We start hearing that we realistically can get studs like Vladimir Guerrero and Adam Dunn…
We all know these are lies. They were lies 10 years ago and they are lies now. Funny how Dunn is actually still in the picture, but Washington’s price is extremely heavy — probably a truck full of prospects or Matt Cain.
Well with Bengie Molina hurting himself all over the place in Texas, it’s time to fill the void for the random-once-every-two -month-Giant-player blog.. And who better than the guy who called the All-Star Game retarded?
Yes Aubrey Huff is our new resident blogger. You can check out Aubrey Huff’s Blog here.
Or I just pulled the highlights.. For the record I am in love with this guy.
Not just because he’s playing well but I really believe his personality has had a lot to do with our morale and winning..
It was like a nuclear bomb blew up in San Francisco. Faces melted, hearts crushed.. Phil Cuzzi did it again.
Blown call or not, the Giants had to play and play well against the Dodgers — in the 2nd inning they had the bases loaded with no one out. I’ll give you two guesses as to how this one ended.
Nope, not a triple play but they did manage to score zero runs. Here we go again. The next inning Torres gets a lead-off double and again back-to-back outs..
Oh wait, we have Buster Posey, don’t we?
He’s dominating in AAA recently but guys like Brett Pill and John Bowker can only watch as the guy who made quite possibly the two worst plays in the 2010 season is back.
Yup, 3 home runs 19 RBI and an OPS of .788 in 58 games is much better than 11 HR, 57 RBI and a .774 OPS in 93 games. Let me guess, is it because he has big league experience?
So what’s the reason for no Bowker..?
Not only do they epically make the roster move one-day after potentially losing a game because of it, but they give us Velez.. Again.. As for the “we need a middle-infielder” argument, Velez had six errors in 31 games and second base last year and one in 10 games this year.
Time to fire up the Matt Downs tribute video again.
Sorry Pill, Bowker and Matt, you have been Schierholtz’d.. But wait? My friend Hank Schulman said they could be doing this to showcase Velez.. oh boy.. even better!
Bruce Bochy doesn’t want to see a trade happen. Brian Sabean has been saying all along “we WILL make a move”. David DeJesus needs Jesus Christ in return if he’s going to be traded.
Something’s gotta give.
Imagine you have a job in the kitchen at Burger King.. Someone orders a Whopper and you make a Spicy Chicken Sandwich. OK, not a big deal, maybe just a misunderstanding — it is lunch time and you’re busy.
Now imagine for three straight hours you make onion rings when they needed fries, french toast when they needed a double cheeseburger and a Whopper Jr. when they needed the — WHAT THE FU%& YOU CALLED HIM OUT?
I just wrapped up the busiest weekend of my life, I was en route from work to my buddies house and I missed the call. I don’t know if Bochy got tossed but he should have. This was much more than costing us a perfect game — we lost momentum, a sweep, and an undefeated second half.
Well, let’s go play the Dodgers now!
Well this is quite possibly the biggest weekend of my life and I know thousands of you are dying to get some updates..
Well..
Our pitching rocks, our offense sucks and Buster Posey is a God.. So nothing really has changed. Sorry for lack of updates so to make up for it, here’s THE CHOSEN ONE.. Great vid.
Not much more to say.
Offense sucks.
Posey was great.
Sanchez was great.
Timmy was great.
Rowand is still doing better than Pablo..
Offense still sucks.
Looks like the story all year..
“Keep Pablo smiling”.
Thank God no more F.P. cliches, holy freaking crap.
Go Giants.
