Bryce Johnson is with the team and rumors are that Belt may be going on the IL.


If true, has Belt played his last game with the Gs?

 

[calsnowskier]

And just so it is said and acknowledged…

Thanks, @tzill , for making these threads. Back when this forum was popping, we would fight to be the first to create the thread, but with the closed window, the excitement isn’t really there anymore.

I have a 90 minute meeting starting at 10 this am, so I won’t even be able to follow the game fr the first few innings.

They are trying to suck me back in to caring...

 

[calsnowskier]

Webb must have really pissed off Craw somehow. Craw absolutely fucked Webb over in this inning.

He totally Roger Dorned that ball.

 

[calsnowskier]

Game turned off….

Well, that’s 15 minutes I will never get back.

Lets recap that moundshattery by Webb B5:

1. line out -- good start
2. single
3. double -- I reach for depends
4. walk -- I'm leaking
5. strike out -- feeling much better
6. single -- Craw fails to make the play, but the ball was smoked -- 2-0. Feeling depressed
7. single -- smoked. 3-0 feeling angry.
8. single - hard grounder. 4-0 feeling resigned.
(Scrabble 2 in for Charlotte)
9. double -PHUK THIS BULL(SHIT)PEN 6-0. game over.
10. ground out. too little, too late.

This phuking team.

I hate morning baseball.

Let me understand this correctly, the Giants call up a speedy young(ish) outfielder who can get on base and plays good defense, so they decide to have him on the bench and put in the lead off spot the DH who isn't hitting, while batting a right fielder in the #2 spot who cannot hit and continue to play the guy in center field who's OPS has been on a 200 point slide in the past 3 months?
Great thinking!

And I wouldn't be surprised to see Belt back for a week or two to end the season.

I still don't understand why Scrabble 2 ever had a spot on this roster. Much less, why put him in in such a high leverage situation?

 

[calsnowskier]

Remember when the Giants won something like 20 straight Webb starts?


Yeah. That was cool…

hmmp.

We're not very good this year, are we?

 

[tzill]

we are the very definition of mediocre. 81 wins. Calling it now.

I'd be elated with that number of wins...


I'm betting on 78 wins...

We have very different definitions of elated.

Maybe I should have gone with,"surprised' or, "pleased"...
