Game Thread: 4.30.17 Pads@Giants

[LHG]

• Infielder/outfielder Aaron Hill (forearm strain) is eligible to come off the disabled list Tuesday but Bochy is uncertain if that will happen.

"That forearm is a sensitive area so we've had to slow-play him a little bit," Bochy said.

Translation: "We really love us some veteran presence but his numbers don't justify a roster spot. We really are at a conundrum here"

C'mon Law....


edit a swing and a miss that was way outside of the strike zone. Good job Mr. Law.

Is it possible that Blach is a better hitter than Bum?

Bum clearly has the power, but Blach is consistently putting up ABs...

 

[calsnowskier]

I'll get right on that...

3 extra base hits for Gerald in apr. Oy.

 

[calsnowskier]

Um...

Yeah...

Have you been following this team?

I seem to remember that we signed a fairly expensive free agent closer over the off season. Anyone know when he'll be reporting for duty?

Freaking Hacktor.

So the last time Melancon appeared, he got a 1-2-3 inning for a clean save. So he follows that up with a complete crap fest? I guess he wanted to make a nice bookend of the month.

I smell a gidp

 

[calsnowskier]

I am ok with the K.

Better than the alternative.

 

[LHG]

I'm beginning to loathe the 1st basemen in the NL West.

And the Padres pinch hit with their starting pitcher from yesterday. I wonder how this will go?

 

[LHG]

I believe that the player of the game award for the Padres is going to be shared between Melancon and Kontos.

After today's game, the Giants are 1-5-2 in series'...

After today's game, I think I'm ready to write this season off. This team looks pathetic.
