I wish they'd stop showing the Ford injury over and over...

It actually was first time I saw it, I thought he ran into the wall (full body), wasn't aware he slid into it head first.
After seeing it though, I don't need to see it again

Not trying to stir the pot bt Ken Rosenthal posted video on Fox Sports talking about Sandoval-Giants situation and examine the 3B free agent market in the offseason

Chase Headley - yes I'd take him
Sandoval
Aramis Ramirez -bat has been very good but is 36
Casey McGehee- .........

... Buster Posey at third ...

... Buster Posey at third ...

Are we sure he can play that position well?


Aren't too many former catchers who went on to excel at another position (other than 1st base).

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

I should have waited two full innings

 

[Band of Brothers]

Any word on how Ford is doing? I hope he is OK.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

yes
Florida State's Buster Posey plays all 9 positions in single game - Orlando Sentinel

He can do it ALL!

He traveled with the team to SLC, so he must have been cleared by docs to fly. The word is he had a concussion but will be fine.

Cain looks good today. Very confident out there. I like the way his pitches have better movement.

 

[tzill]

Cain with the high pitch count and crappy WHIP again. Man, this is getting old.

 

[ColinCoby]

Here is vintage Cain!

I wanted to compliment Cain as well but feared I'd jinx him.

He looked like his old self in that inning, spotting his pitches and making the hitters look overmatched. Unfortunately, he's already thrown 44 pitches.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Not that he makes it to us, but A's DFA'd Sam Fuld today

 

[tzill]

Through five batters, one has seen more than three pitches (Posey). Aaaaaand Chez3 just waived at a pitch in the dirt to k.

Grrrrrrrr.....

 

[tzill]

And Kobe with the FPOM.....

 

[ColinCoby]

Our three scrub 2nd baseman are a combined 8-48. (To be fair, Hicks has nice numbers…at the plate)

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

I blame these videos of Cain showing each pick, for his struggles

 

[ColinCoby]

Damn. That was some nice hitting there.

Cain in trouble...

 

[Band of Brothers]

Hit and run single. that one hurt.

 

[tzill]

Leadoff walk...yeah, nothing to worry about there....

ffffffuuuuuccccckkkkkk

 

[Band of Brothers]

Need aground ball here for 2.

 

[ColinCoby]

Here comes Tulo…with nowhere to put him.
