Wow, that seems pretty drastic. He's still a decent bench guy/PH right? And seems pretty early in the year to drop him outright

Yeah, you may be right. However, you NEVER hear Kruk rip a player like he did today. It does give you pause.

 

[sfsportsfan]

what'd Kruk say?

According to Bochy, Franchez on schedule to return May 11. 18 days for Huff to turn it around.

Mid-May was my pre-season estimate of how long they'd give Huff to show if he can produce. Nice coincidence it seems with Franchez injury.

Indeed. It's going to come down to ManBur v Huffer, IMO

Knbr is not trying to hide Kruk's comments. They just replayed his rant a cpl mis ago...

Not good for the Huffer...

 

[msgkings322]

That's what we can do now...2nd hitter gets on, steals 2nd, a single and you got a run already

 

[msgkings322]

Busta!!!

Makes the Panda baserunning mistake a bit more costly but maybe we're gonna score a lot here.

 

[gp956]

Schierholtz's luck changing in the 5-hole? Just got a bloop hit, but his career split when hitting 5th: .214/.266/.342

Thrown out trying to stretch a single in front of a homerun.........

 

[msgkings322]

Look at Bochy, runnin' wild. Good!

 

[jayviabay]

Nice way to start the game! It looks like we can steal bases all day on this catcher. We should have RISP a lot today.

 

[msgkings322]

Thrown out at second in front of a homerun.........

See post #10

And does Buster hit the HR with a guy on 2nd? Pitcher maybe pitches differently...

Batista must be shitty at helping keep runners close to first.

Also he's wild so you can run on his pitches.

 

[msgkings322]

Has Timmy ever needed a shut down inning in a non-playoff game more?

 

[jayviabay]

NYCE! play from his bum by burriss

Thole, this year, has thrown out less then 11% of runners stealing. 25% for his career - slightly below league average.

Timmy's back
