So what's the take-away on Leake after his first game in a new uni? I was ho-hum when I first heard the news, then was feeling pretty positive, then I saw that interview yesterday where he said he thought he might be headed to the AL East, but the Giants snuck in there. Kinda rubbed me the wrong way. Granted, I take everything personally, BUT STILL!!

Leake will get the loss but Herk deserves it

How so? Sounds to me he thought he thought the Yankees or Jays needed him.

He had the best start of the series, so that's good. Great pitcher for get-away day.

Hits into a DP on a 2-0 pitch after that big HR yesterday. At least they did not get swept and still have won 15 of the last 20. Too bad that Texas does not come to AT&T this season for the Giants to return the favor.

Atlanta is 47-58 has lost 9 of 11, but the Giants are in for a tough series there.

I dunno... might just be the way he said it. It was almost wistful. Like he hoped he was headed there, but the Giants came in and snatched him away. Again... I am probably reading waaay too much into it, but that was just the feeling I got.

Dogs sweep the Angels. Every time we get close, we fall a little and the Dogs go on a run. Race is far from over.

Potentially bad news about and his sore lower back.
