Max!!!

Are we approaching Maxwell > Blanco territory

 

[Sandisfan]

Maxwell(AKA Chuck Norris) is so though when his knee hits the concrete under the padding in foul territory . the wall goes on the disabled list! Woohoo the LONG BALL!

 

[calsnowskier]

Have yourself a game, Kid...

I was away from the comp when it happened, but it was interesting seeing the Rollins v Romo AB.

Romo grew up a BIG doggie fan. Rollins grew up a BIG Giants fan. Here they are tonight, facing each other in a Giants/doggie game, but each is playing for "the enemy"...

Totally different players. Hard to compare the two.

I think Maxwell has a higher ceiling, and COULD be a middle of the order bat. Blanco is what he is, an elite #4 OF.

Why have they been throwing at Aoki all night?

Yeah, I just think until Pence is back. Maxwell should be the "everyday RF"

If he plays the way he has tonight, no one would argue with that opinion.

 

[calsnowskier]

The question becomes...

If he continues to perform, which is a possibility (he was a high prospect who has just been held back by injuries), what OF configuration do you go with?

You can't sit Aoki. You can't sit Pagan. You aren't going to sit Pence.

Aoki is hitting over his head so when he slows down Maxwell should be an option. After all Pagan can take the lead-off spot for a while.

Man, that was without any doubt the best game of the year. Not bored tonight!

So much to like tonight.

My wife in fact now has a huge crush on Maxwell.

 

[msgkings322]

And jeebus what a matchup tomorrow, like modern day Koufax vs Marichal (if Marichal was also a lefty)

Buncha kids already working their way into the mix, we needed some new blood (Duffy, Heston, Maxwell, Kontos, Susac, Panik still, etc).

And has a team ever needed (and responded to) a day off so much?

I have the Extra Innings package, but I live in Orange County, so I can't see the game because of the Blue Scum and their stupid Time Warner nonsense.

More reason to hate the Dudgers.

Download Hola unblocker to your web browser. Works with Google Chrome or Firefox.

Change your location on Hola to anyplace in Europe. Most people use the Netherlands or England. Start game on PC. After game is running turn off Hola. Watch the game you want.

Works with the NFL gamepass too. Use the Netherlands. Get all the NFL games for like 3 teams for $100. Totally worth it. I mistakenly used England last year to buy the NFL Gameday and it cost $30 more. But I could watch all the 49ers games without getting direct tv.

Had a friend who grew up in L.A. over for the game last night. It was a sweet win! .

Concerning the last 6-4-3 DP, I turned to him and said "that's the mirror image of the DP in game 7 of the W.S."

 

[Band of Brothers]

A great win by the Giants last night 6-2 . Lincecum pitched 6 awesome innings. The bullpen was solid. Maxwell had a big night at the plate and a great catch in RF. Craw went 2-4. A win to build on for the rest of the series as Lincecum looks like he is back. Good to see Tim back on top of his game. The Giants Rock and Roll Band was rock N by the bay and the fans went wild with lighters in the air for Tim who took center stage and delivered his best guitar solo since his NO NO last year.

Go Giants !!

Beat LA !

That must have hurt him on sooo many levels.
