Game Thread: 5/23 Giants @ Pebbles at the Pond (Game #1)

Who's winning?

He is the play-by-play guy. We are the color guys.

 

[calsnowskier]

We are 3-1 in innings today, at least.

Ha!

For a stretch there, I figured his ceiling was a shitty version of Mark Grace.

I was all JT Snow. Of course, we could both still be right...

This team may be the best team we have had in this stretch. And I think we have enough MLB ready talent on the farm to either trade for a big piece (Cueto or Hamels) or to provide the support themselves.

What would we give up for Cueto?

Yeah but if he doesn't tell us which team is winning how will we know?

calsnow, you are a friend in here. I hate that it may seem like I'm questioning your posts all the time. Respect your opinion a lot

Can we outbid the Dodgers and all the others? It would hurt. Think Susac + Heston + Crick

 

[msgkings322]

Kruk and Kuip just said game 2 starts 40 minutes after this one ends

We'll have something to flip to during Warriors game commercials

Dodgers can always offer Julio Urias. Probably best SP prospect in minors. Goodness his stuff is filthy. But hard to know what LAD would trade with new front office

 

[ColinCoby]

Strickland is back? This should be entertaining.

 

[ColinCoby]

Well that wasn't entertaining at all…


Good job kid.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Strickland with his outing of the year. Real nice.

 

[msgkings322]

Strickland apparently learned a changeup and a 2 seam fastball, so maybe he can be the BP stud we thought he might with that velocity. Things change, players get better (and worse)...

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Strickland needed too many pitches. Send him back!!

It will be interesting to see how the Warriors do tonight. If they don't clean up the turnovers, they don't win.

Asshole...

Rockets giving them more than I thought they had...probably goes 7 games

This is the problem. The dogs has recently completed there outright purchase of the island of Cuba, so the will be able to flip anyone in their system and not really feel the sting.

In a real-world, I think we would be able put together a package that would be able to get it done, but the dogs will over-pay in prospects, and the Reds will make out like bandits.

I trust that Sabes and Evans will be able to find the right player to add, though. We have Susac, Blach (may not be available), Blackburn, Crick, Williamson, Arroyo, Okert, Strickland, Duvall, etc that, I think, all have good value.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Susac is setting up too soon. He needs to wait a little longer.

I'd prefer to go the more affordable route. See what Oakland wants for Kazmir
