7/9 GDT Gee @ Zito

[msgkings322]

It's a really astonishing collapse...kind of reminds me of how the Mets ended that season a couple of years ago, or the Red Sox more recently.

 

[calsnowskier]

Face it fellas, we are toast.

1-8 on the roadie

Soon to be 1-5 on the home stand

Everything Bochy does is turning gold into lead.

Huh? Where?

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Jesus f'ing Christ

edit: I wonder how much longer the sellouts will continue?

The Giants wil say they will continue all season, I doubt it will be the truth

Disagree.

I prefer this to a late-season collapse. The Padres and Mets in '10 were probably more painful this this.

We had expectations coming in, sure, but we never had the division in our pocket while making post-season plans.

 

[Stokes1931]

Zito should not have started the 6th

JA should not be in a close game

Dunning should not throw a 78 mph hanging slider over the middle of the plate on the first .

And we are still 2-23 with RISP the past two games.

And a career Japanese League 2b is our starting LF?

Where is the bottom?

Agreed. As awful as this is in June-July, it would be much much worse in September.

 

[calsnowskier]

This game is over. The team has ZERO confidence right now. If they were UP by one, they would feel that deficit is too great to overcome.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

So let's say. If we become small sellers at the deadline. I'd imagine we trade Pence, Lopez, (maybe Lincecum if we are lucky), and maybe Scutaro.

You can't trade Sandoval at this point, value isn't where it needs to be. I'd keep Belt, Bumgarner, Posey, Cain, Crawford the main big guys.

I didn't mean it was an exact parallel, but the speed and ferocity of the collapse, and by a team that's supposed to at least be solid, that just feels like how it must have felt for those teams.

Add Craw to the keep list.

I think Timmeh is actually pitching himself into some trade-value. Maybe well enough to offer a QO.

Ah, the power of the contract year...thought Pence was working that too, until lately

Despite this pain this comment from a Giants fan gave me a laugh
Am I the only one that thinks the Giants need to give up on Belt and upgrade the first base position? Guys like Morneau, Dunn, and Young are available.

Not sure if I should laugh or cry at that comment.

MSG, would you be OK with trading Dunne?

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Interested to hear what he says but I would imagine he would love for CWS to trade him


Dunn makes 15M this year and 15M in 2014, has 24 HR's this year but only a .204 BA

 

[msgkings322]

Umm, would "I" be ok with it? You mean, should White Sox fans want to unload him? Hells yeah, but no one would be that dumb not even the Dodgers. Zito has more trade value than Dunn. So does Barry Bonds.

Those seagulls circling the park last night might as well have been vultures. Acceptance is a difficult thing.

If you have been following this board the last week or so, you would know that we've gotten quite good at it...
