Game Thread: 6/20 Gigantes @ BBB (you figure it out)

[calsnowskier]

Oh, I know! I'm pleasantly surprised with BOTH Panik and Duffy's respective power! And it never looks as if either is trying to hit HRs. I love our lineup, especially when healthy!

Agree agree agree.

While I am slightly surprised by Duffy's power, I am absolutely SHOCKED by Paniks output. He never showed any power in college or the minors, and I was worried about his OBP potential because of it (if he is never going to make the pitchers pay for staying in the zone, he won't get any walks). I am not worried about that anymore.

That was potential ugly, right there...

The only spot in the lineup that I worry about is CF due to Pagan's injury history. He's wearing down bad...the Dodgers telecast had Pagan's monthly splits April/May/June and his numbers get exponentially worse each month. I like Maxwell but I don't think Pence or Aoki play CF defensively, which means Blanco gets ABs.

They communicated well on that one.

When Pence gets back, I hope they give Pagan a DL stint. His back HAS to be bothering him. That explains his absolute lack of power.

I'm hoping for a DL stint for Pagan as well but they were saying that he may be out past the All Star Break, which I don't think Pagan can wait for. Can Aoki play CF? Or is he primarily a LF historically?

He played RF for KC last year. I would have to look it up, though. He is fast enough, I would think he could handle it. I think he just does not have great defensive instincts, which is why he is relegated to a corner spot.

Just a WAG, though.

I may drag myself to the latrine tomorrow for the potential sweep. I hate going to that fucking place.

Thanks for filling in for me.....

Apparently Duffy is getting talk of taking over the 3-hole by the coaches. I would be OK with him or Craw.

That's what I would do at the moment. Oxy's average and power have absolutely plummeted. For a guy coming off a back injury, Noggin sure is playing him a ton of games. He's played 65 of 70 games. I was sort of hoping he'd get one day off a week. It has been hard with Guppy and Herk going down with injuries, and now with Seaweed potentially injured.

Is anyone else getting errors when trying to access the Giants main board? I cannot access it either from the front page or from this thread.

I can't access it from the main menu, either.

Another instance where PQS misses the mark...

THud with a PQS of 2. That equates to the lower edge of moderate (a 1 is a disaster).

Baiting me eh? Ok, I'll bite. It was a middling start -- Hud wasn't dominant nor was he awful. He needed really good D and a bonehead play by Piggy to escape relatively unscathed. He didn't save the bully, but he made some tough pitches when he had to. PQS isn't a perfect stat but it hardly "missed the mark" here. 2 is a middling score; he gave us a middling start.

Seems to be working OK this morning.

They need to do something about the right field wall. IMO, they should bring in the "Levi's Landing" section to make it even with the section in right-center (between the Merrill Lynch sign and the State Farm sign).

More seats, more home runs, more scoring, better able to attract a LHH power hitter. A nice incremental move that won't ruin the character of the park.

My two kroons.
