He's doing his best to prove you right.

I overstated my case and fixated on the wrong stats...had I studied OPS+ I wouldn't have made that argument.

Still.....Arias!

Blanco with two hits, but three K (one with zero outs and the bases loaded). What's the call? Acceptable, or not?

not

but encouraging

I give him a hall pass on the K with the bags full. Those strike call were atrocious (or is that Astrocious?)

How things have changed in August...... last month Arias was "hardly useful".


Yep. Who would have called that one? I was all for The Giants sending him back to Fresno. Shows what I know. :first:

Nice applause for Gonzalez from the 50 fans still in the crowd.

How bad, for those of us without TV?

Really bad. If he was 40+ years old his leg would have snapped off. As it is, it looks like he's going to shake it off.

He essentially had his foot slip just before he touched the bag, which caused his leg to hyper-extended, and then his leg acted like a pole vault for his body.

The Astro player landed on first base with his left leg fully extended. Landed on it completely straight and could be a hyperextension? The resulting dive looked like he stepped on a landmine

Yikes...that's gotta hurt.

Gonzalez made a leap toward 1st, hit the bad awkwardly (very front of bag), and flew in the air. It was as if 1st base was a small trampoline or something. Luckily, he landed/rolled on his side and not his ankle, arm, etc. I bet he's o.k.

I'm sure it'll be all over sports center.

I was for keeping him up, but would never have predicted this hot streak.
