Morse and Buster with the day off. EA at 2b after his 3 hit day. Denorfia with ownage on Cainer; nobody with more than 7 ABs vs. Ross.

Bend those bending benders. 5-1 good guys. Pablo unthaws.

Game is a pick-em with a 6.5 OU.

The OU sounds about right, so I am going to avoid it. However, Cainer should do well and Morse and Buster are sitting, so if I HAD to bet the OU, I would take the under. I may actually put a small bet on the under.

As a pick-em, I REALLY like the Giants here. The Crowd should be AT WORST split for the Pads and the Giants, and should really benefit the Giants. I will put a moderate bet on the Giants here as well.

Sucks to see the offense go totally AWOL, but really encouraging to see Cain's last 2 starts.

He's back to getting Cained, and the last time that happened we won in 2010

 

[msgkings322]

There's a Brandon to Brandon to Brandon double play...

 

[Kendal]

Runs: we could use some.

 

[Stokes1931]

Runs: we could use some.

Giants now 11 for their last 75 with RISP (.146)

Last nine games, have scored 25 runs, a have a good chance of being shut out for the second time in a week.

Belt has cooled off power-wise. Pablo and Pence still with major sukkitude, but Pence seems to be coming around.

Cain pitching well, but getting Cained. Again.

 

[Stokes1931]

Well, well. Belt rediscovers his HR swing.

Now trailing 2-1 in the 9th

 

[Stokes1931]

First time this season losing the opening game of a series (now 5-1)

Giants fall to 3-6 when the other team scores first. (7-1 when the Giants score first)

Cain pitched brilliantly.

Bats were dead until the 9th, 0-9 with RISP

Blame this one on Hactor -- passed ball gives the Pads a run; 3 Ks; and GIDP with two on, no outs.

 

[Hangman]

Where has the offense gone the last week and a half? First week best offense in mlb with mediocre pitching. now good pitching and no offense. Cant we get both for once ffs?

 

[calsnowskier]

Cain has put together back-to-back brilliant starts...



and is 0-2 in them


The Giants offense has scored a grand total of seven runs in his four starts. Four of those runs came in the first inning of his first start (which the bully ended up blowing for him).

You sound like Pete Campbell...

Well, it's common knowledge that he's a sub-.500 pitcher.

All his spinksters have tightened up.

EZ ALL GOOD !!!!

I hate playing SD. A team I think we should be able to slap around, and they always turns it around on us.
Drop Sandoval way down in the order, till he shows a little offense, and not just for one good game.


Go Giants !!!

The prob is that everyone is sucking eggs right now.

Belt is hopping at the plate.
Posey cant find his bat.
Pence is hunting for some rhythm.

Morse is the only one rising to the occation, but his D prevents him from playing 9 innings.


Oh, and happy Easter everyone. (Except tz. I will pass over him)
