18th BS for the pale hose this year.

Amazing

 

[calsnowskier]

As frustrating as this Giants team is this year, not sure I could stomach 18 BSs...

 

[calsnowskier]

He was sooooo close to hitting one out.

Better luck next time, blanco. You will prove you are the second coming of Bonds one of these days.

Really.

You will.

Really.

13 for the Gs, not very good either.

In his head, I'm sure Blanco believes he has Giancarlo Stanton's power

I noticed that after my post. While the Colorado series was a killer, I really don't feel like our bully has let us down, so maybe the Sox' 18 isn't THAT bad...

Pbf desperately needed.

 

[calsnowskier]

And the mighty .218 hitter kills us.

Mother fuck.

I don't remember all these fouls into the face of the catchers in the past. Is it just me, or there a LOT more now than there were?

I don't remember it being an issue for Kennedy, Decker, Brenly, Melvin, etc. Of course it was an issue for Matheny, but not Santiago or Johnson.

It could be that more attention is paid to it now.

Yea, that's kinda what I am thinking.

No milk again

 

[calsnowskier]

Can I put this season away in the garage, yet? I need to just put this shit away and forget about it.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

19-33 since June 12.

Welp, was fun while it lasted

I am so glad the Giants made a trade to improve this team. They turned around their losing ways.


6 games back and falling. The Giants Brass made a mockery of this team with their lack of doing anything to help this team at all since the start of June. No playoffs again this year. I hope Sabean is fired.

It would be interesting to take every SP in the NL this year and determine each if their best starts of he year. How many if them would have had theirs vs the Giants?

Every frigging night, we get the opposing pitchers best game of the season.

How unlucky is that?

That's not luck, my friend. It is the Giants' Way. They practice this in Spring Training.

And in my head, I am smarter than Noggin and Sabey Sabes, right? Right? RIGHT?!?!?

I am really tired of Blanco's crappy plate approach. Bam Bam has not helped him, perhaps he is beyond help. At the moment, I am tired of the whole bunch. Except maybe Pence. Even when he has an 0-fer, he plays with passion and heart. Posey seems to have disappeared, as has Morse. Panda was lights out in MIL, but silent since.

This is just bad baseball to watch/listen to.

Noggin: "Well, Sale is a great pitcher and threw well tonight. We had few chances. But we swung the bats well. Vogey pitched a helluva game except one pitch. We won't make any changes, because the odds are that no matter what we do, we suck right now."
