Who gives a shite about Yaz resting. I am over that guy. Stars is one of the worst FA signing we have made in a while.

 

[calsnowskier]

Since July 25, yaz’s slash…

.129 / .229 / .307 / .536 / 3 HR / 6 RBI / 70 PA


His BABIP in this time frame is .128, but no one has been saying how he has been scalding the ball and getting robbed. Dude just can’t hit.

 

[calsnowskier]

Why is La Stella getting all the DH love? I would almost prefer to see Yaz DH than him.

If he's too hurt to play the field, he needs to go on the IL. This idea of playing him at DH is nonsense. He's not hitting well enough to stay active so his bat can be in the lineup. FZ has about a dozen middle infielders he can call up to replace him on the roster.

6 up, 6 down for the Ronominator.

Now let's get us some runs!!

 

[tzill]

LATE NIGHT BOMB!!

1-0 good guys

now bring me a SDI.

 

[tzill]

Narrator: and he was NOT brought a SDI.

1-1 bottom four

 

[tzill]

whelp, a disappointing bottom of the fourth with 2 runners stranded.

On the bright side: we turned the lineup over. 3rd time through for Davies B5. We need a zero from the Rodominator here.

 

[tzill]

we got the zero. Now, let's mash this punk.

 

[tzill]

I should add: we got the zero despite mittfuckery.

This defense, man...

 

[tzill]

Rodon's sixth inning:

walk
K
K
Catchers interference !!
HBP
K

Leaves 'em loaded.
1-1 B6

 

[tzill]

106 pitches for the Rodominator.

He done.

 

[tzill]

Davis with the solo bomb B6....2-1 good guys

Harrrleeeen in T7...wonder if we'll get FYWW or FUWL ?

 

[tzill]

J.D. Davis is now hitting .375/.459/.781 in his first 37 plate appearances with the SFGiants after blasting his 4th home run tonight. FZ has to be ecstatic about the early results from the Darin Ruf trade.

2-1 B7

Who the hell is teaching baserunning this season? Gonzo has made a complete wreck in his time on the bases. And now Yaz gets picked off from 2nd?!?

No question that was a very nice trade. Heck all 3 of the deadline deals were very nice.


Right now, Davis looks like he could be a stud.

A few years ago, the Giants had Vince Coleman in as a coach during Spring Training. Maybe next year the drop a coin or two to have Lofton come in, or someone similar (kick, give Rickey a call)

FYBPIHY

 

[calsnowskier]

Who didn’t see that one coming?

I am done with him.

Non tender or trade him in the off-season, please.
