"A" lineup, minus Pagan, plus an actual pitcher on the mound. I expect AT LEAST 2 HRs from Bum tonight. Not only is he pissed about last night's game, but he is getting constantly out-testosteroned by Sammy so he needs to nut-up.

Welcome back Joe

 

[calsnowskier]

Happy Bum Day, everyone...

 

[1phlapdown]

I would love to see some 8-10 pitch innings from Bum tonight, but he hasn't shown us much of that yet.

 

[calsnowskier]

That wasn't "the band". That was just Hetfield and Hammett. No Lars. No Trujio.

 

[1phlapdown]

Blanton gave up the ghost for the dogs today.

 

[calsnowskier]

Just your standard 1-3-2 inning.

 

[LHG]

Well, the first inning went better than last night's, regardless of what our hitters do.

 

[calsnowskier]

Span's numbers may not be Earth-shattering, but he puts together some beautiful ABs...

 

[calsnowskier]

Ok, I am officially pissed off. How many web gems have been performed against us this year? It seems EVERY game there is at least one.

If Blanco can keep up his hot hitting, I don't think he replacing Pagan in the lineup takes anything away from it.

 

[calsnowskier]

I thought his defensive metrics said he w den as a good defender. WTF?

Totally agree.

 

[LHG]

When is Bochy going to learn? Walk Arenado, do not pitch to him.

 

[calsnowskier]

The coop-da-gracie on that play was that Blanco was out in left playing with the butterflies.

This team is in lala land.

just like friggin' Goldee.

 

[LHG]

just like friggin' Goldee.

Exactly. Although I'm wondering if the team just needs to forfeit any games against Colorado. Take the pain out of the losses.

 

[LHG]

The serious suckage of Peavy and Cain have masked Bumgarner looking a lot more human as well. Nick Lowery, where are you?

 

[1phlapdown]

Ha, Tz is at the game. I hope his Depends are with him.

edit: Criminy, 42 pitches in 2.
