4/27 GDT Champs at PIT

[tzill]

It's another wet day in Pit -- 90% chance of rain tonight. Currently raining; my guess is that this one gets cancelled.

Lineup:

CF Rowand
2B Sanchez
1B Huff
C Posey
3B Sandoval
LF Burrell
RF Ross
SS Tejada
P Bumgarner

The A lineup (minus Andy Towers) again. RoRo, Franchez, Posey, Panda, Ross all with good success vs. McDonald. This former doyer sucks balls; if we can't break out against him we are truely fucked. Don't know about fragile Bum and his psyche vs. a rain delay.

Ugh.

Rain again? What am I supposed to do for the next hour at work? Oh, yeah...

 

[Heathbar012]

I missed the bottom half of the first. How is MadBum looking?

 

[Heathbar012]

Nevermind. He has answered my question. Balls.

 

[Heathbar012]

He's getting squeezed a little bit again, too. I guess he has to prove to the umps all over again that he belongs in the bigs.

 

[SFAnthem]

what's up with these comebackers to the pitcher coming back to haunt the Giants?

[Heathbar012]

Get that one back!

 

[SFAnthem]

I officially name Tejada's place in the lineup as "the pitcher's spot" until he starts doing anything remotely resembling a major league hitter..

Nice.

Unfortunately, I'm feeling almost the same way about a lot of Giants hitters right now.

I know it's early but...The Pads got shut out yet again today. Any chance they rebound? I say no.

Nice easy inning for Bum. Nice to see.

Unless Adrian Gonzalez miraculously comes back to them for nothing, I think you're right.

browsing around the different sites - checking out scores, etc.

I am no longer surprised to see the Pads shut out anymore. Where is the threat in that lineup?

 

[SFAnthem]

Huff looked like he coulda grabbed that one..

great effort by Franchez

Besides Ryan Ludwick?

 

[SFGRTB]

Besides Ryan Ludwick?

Good one.

 

[SFAnthem]

Besides Ryan Ludwick?

He's more of a 5th/6th hitter to me. I think his numbers were a result of good hitters around him that took most of the attention.

 

[SFAnthem]

c'mon Bum

I am an HF today, aren't I??

I really want to give Burriss a chance. Why not, Tejada isn't hitting a lick or playing much defense. Manny at least gives more speed and range at the position.
