6/1 GDT Scrubs @ Bum

[gp956]

That must have felt good for Pill.

 

[gp956]

Yeah unless he puts together a string of good abs soon I don't see him sticking around for the long haul. In the short term though who exactly would they replace him with?

To be fair he is seeing very sporadic playing time and he has hit 3 dongs.

I don't see him going down unless he shows some "give up". That said, he's got to stop swinging over the top on breaking stuff.

 

[gp956]

Pill doing it all......

 

[gp956]

Good sign.....walking Crawford to face Madbum.

Yeah me either. I don't think I was very clear. I don't think there's anyone worth bringing up here to replace him anyway. Kind of a good spot to be in for a struggling young player.

You're probably right. Just frustrating to see an obviously talented hitter just flail away.

The only guy I can think of is Freddy Sanchez, but he's not close to being ready. Pill does have an option left.

Yeah, it's been a while since he's scalded anything.

Doh. I forgot about Freddy (maybe trying not to remember? What a waste) even if Freddy makes it back by say July (I'm an optimist!) I wonder if Huff would be the first to go if he's still huffing it at that point?

But yeah Pill with the option...

Huff is on the bubble or sure. Along with Burriss. But I could see the Giants optioning Pill for Sanchez, where he then becomes the main RH bat off the bench.

Man they are falling fast right now. We should be only 4 back all of a sudden.

 

[gp956]

Oh man....Melky crushed that ball.

 

[iHATEdodgers]

Theriot suddenly remembered how to hit. Yay.

 

[gp956]

....add another 3M on what it will take to sign the Melkman.

 

[Stokes1931]

Krukow: "Melky just got AT&T'ed."

Love it. Dbacks losing too.

I like this version rather than the sucky version of April. Announcers are saying he had health issues, and is now OK. I guess.

They lost four in a row at HOME against the Brewers.

Now they are on the road, without Kemp. May they keep Skylabbing.

 

[Stokes1931]

Madbum at 84 pitches through 7 innings (averaging 12 an inning). No walks, 9 K's.

That's only about 4 innings or less of Timmah these days.
