Game Thread: 5/7 Giants @ Pirates

[msgkings322]

He will prove you wrong. When the chips are in the middle he has always won. A Heart of a Champion . Did you see 2010 and 2012 years.

Ugh...BoB, you need to get a little realistic man. In 2012 Timmy SUCKED and that's why he was in the pen in the playoffs, where he looked pretty good. We all started wondering if he needed to go Eckersley to keep his career going. That might need to be back on the table.

You are way off base. You need to look in the mirror and chill out. Way too much negative energy from you and you call me insane.

I am feeling negative, and you are insane.

We agree

Lincecum is like a guy calling "rock" 17 times in a row who gets surprised that someone keeps calling "paper."

Oh yeah by the way Giants are 21-12 for the year. Not too shabby.

This thread is more entertaining than the game

 

[tzill]

70 pitches....8 outs....

Thanks Captain Obvious. How much of that was because of Timmy?

Or was it, just maybe, DESPITE him?

You do realize that:

1. Timmy is still in the game;
2. Posey isn't;
3. Oxy isn't;
4. Panda isn't

Not impossible, but incredibly unlikely. I'd LOVE to be wrong, but Timmy hates me.

So all we need is a veteran pitcher to settle down, and we have three very good PH's available.

Doesn't sound so hard.

A zero inning! Can we hope for a 1-2-3 one next?

 

[tzill]

Hey!! Timmy managed to NOT give up a run this inning.

Progress!

 

[Band of Brothers]

Great inning by Tim.

You guys wrote off Vogey too. Ye of little faith.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

I'd love to replace Lincecum in the rotation (and people know how I feel about Vogey)

But we don't have any options right now. Have to ride it out. We are still in good position overall

Well, in games NOT started by Timmy the Giants are only 16-11. Just sayin'.

He's at 71 pitches...his day is about done. We need a stellar bullpen effort and reserves hitting .160 to remember that they can hit.

I'm still saying I'm done with him

Don't confuse proximity with causation. Did you know that when ice cream sales increase, so do rapes?

Yeah I get that...I'm just yanking your chain. It's easy today.

 

[tzill]

And we have Timmy to thank for that.

We gotta try the Eckersley thing with him.

Soon.

 

[msgkings322]

So we all see the Brewers, who I think will be in the mix all year. Any other teams you guys think will make noise unexpectedly? Colorado? Miami?

 

[Band of Brothers]

After the magic of 2010 and especially 2012 you have to believe. Something special with this team. Never ever quit on these guys especially Lincecum.
