Could be close. We'd have to be swept.

Youse guys are horrible.

We should change Scrabble's nickname to Gopher

Last season he gave up 24 homers in 202 innings.

This season he has given up 23 homers in 160 innings.

Crawford with an RBI?!?



And then Posey gets thrown out at 3rd.

Ah Stokesy, always good for some clouds on a sunny day. Giants up 5-2, he's mad.

.220 hitter: single

.210 hitter: single

Yeah, FYWW is our only truly quality aspect this year.

Melancon, Strick, Dyson, Smith, Gearrin, Crick, that's a legit pen. I guess you need one more lefty, Osich?
