NO NO for the kid so far......he he

Unfortunately, a noon must also be a shutout to be recognized...






I think

I've never seen a move like that happen. I imagine Fleming and Miller were just enjoying discussing it…which I can understand because it's an interesting one to think about.

I think in a pitcher's park it's much easier to give Belt a rip there. Not in this bandbox though. Hmm...

Good point.

Also, the regular season is just Spring Training on steroids. You gotta give McGehee the opportunity to do something there. The experience is more important than the win at this point in the season.

Look at Habib in the stands sporting the Giants head-towel behind the 3B dugout...

Maxwell is a big boy...

 

[Band of Brothers]

Maxwell breaks some ice

 

[ColinCoby]

Gonna be another bullpen heavy game.

Damn. Robbed.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Craw smoked that and just came up short

 

[ColinCoby]

What do you think of Heston guys? Back of the rotation starter? Filler? Chance for more?

 

[Band of Brothers]

Happy B-Day to Henry Schulman...he has put in a lot of years and is a fair writer to the players. Dude is always on point.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Heston has settled in. Good inning there.

He looks solid so far. Let's see how he does against their better hitters the second time through.

I think he has the potential to be a Kevin Correia type. Long career, but really nothing more than a 4 or 5 (OK, KC was SD's 1 one year, but that almost proves my point).

Tonight he has looked fine. Might keep Biggie in the Pen a bit longer...

Duff is making his case to be a starter. He is gonna make it tough on Bochy to keep him out of the line up

 

[calsnowskier]

I am not sure what to make of this offense this year. Is this a reflection on the DBacks pitching (and park), or is this team going to be OK offensively?

 

[Band of Brothers]

Posey hit that right on the nose

 

[ColinCoby]

Damn!!!! Wasted opportunity.

 

[calsnowskier]

Lots of LOB tonight, but they really are poking the ball well. Can't be too upset with the performance...

Four games in San Diego should help answer the question.

Who is Duffy going to replace in the everyday lineup?

 

[ColinCoby]

Yikes. That will be on a blooper show soon. Glad he didn't hurt himself there.
