Panik-4
Nunez-5
Pence-9
Posey-3
Arroyo-6
Hundley-2
Ruggiano-7
Hernandez-8
Cain-1

Giants are up against Tommy Milone. I mean, come on Giants. Please.

Milone is going to be over the plate, he doesn't like to walk guys.

 

[SFGRTB]

Crawford will be chilling on the bench and fly back with the team, plan is to be activated tomorrow. Reyes Moronta is going to be chilling in the bullpen, hoping to get a shot to fly back with the team.

Jeremy Affeldt on Milone: "This guy is very hittable, as you can see from his numbers. He gives up the long ball. But overall very very hittable"

As if to say, come on guys. It's Tommy effin Milone.

 

[SFGRTB]

Kuip: "Keys to the game... Happy flight. They had one in LA, not in Cincinnatim but a pretty good shot to get one today"

It's been awhile since I've heard our announcers so blatantly critical of anyone, going back to last night. This team is wearing on everyone.

 

[SFGRTB]

Naturally, we go down 1-2-3 with 2 K's and a weak hit grounder

 

[SFGRTB]

Hey, progress. Cain only gave up ONE run in the 1st.

Posey-BOMB

 

[calsnowskier]

Posey is pissed. I like to see this from the leader.

 

[calsnowskier]

And he now a legit HR hitter. He leads the team in
HRs, so put him right up there with Judge and Stanton...

 

[1phlapdown]

Their SDI spoiled.

He must have read yesterday's game thread.


edit: Time for Gorkys to step it up...

He looks pretty happy in the dugout

 

[SFGRTB]

Posey's empty batting average line from a few days ago is suddenly an MVP line:

.368/.444/.568 with an ISO at .200 and identical 10.2 K% and BB%.

 

[SFGRTB]

1-1. Ayeee

I meant with his bat. I am not watching (some of us old farts actually work for a living).

This old fart is soon to hang it up, one way or another...

 

[Stokes1931]

Tommy Villone = Clayton Kershaw against this lineup. What a freaking travesty of a lineup.

 

[1phlapdown]

Let's see if Cainer can help himself out here...


edit: what was i thinking?

 

[SFGRTB]

Well, I think the team will look much better soon. In the next week, I think we are replacing

KT (on the roster, but really Nunez in the lineup) with Crawford
Gorkys with Span
Morris with Mac

That should hopefully infuse this lineup with some life.
