Game Thread: 8/7 Bum @ gnats

[calsnowskier]

Bum is exhausted. He can't keep 'em down.

 

[calsnowskier]

Is worth stating that this has been a pitiful showing by the offense?

 

[Stokes1931]

Bum just got Cained. Again.

D@mn this offense.

Nunez went wild yesterday hitting #2, and today he's at #6? What the heck, Noggin?

 

[Hangman]

Boy do we suck. Maybe we should have sold at the deadline.

 

[msgkings322]

tzill approved!

From Baggs:

"Other than Revere’s catch on Belt, the Giants came nearest to a run in the fourth inning after Buster Posey hit a leadoff double and Joe Panik hit a two-out single. Third base coach Roberto Kelly held Posey at third base – a questionable decision, given that Revere’s arm is fringy and Gregor Blanco, who is batting .139 since the All-Star break and struck out four times a night earlier."

Miss the Flan Man at 3rd. Kelly, I don't know if he will ever get it at 3rd. And when can Blanco get "hurt" so we can get an OF who can hit back on the roster? This is beyond pathetic, as we passed pathetic weeks ago.

45-263 with RISP since 7/1. Good luck to this lineup facing Fernandez tomorrow. Tough series coming up in Miami.

 

[shrksfn9192]

Should be 4-2 instead of 2-4 on this trip. 6-15 now since the break, with no series wins in 4 weeks.

Bum displays mound shattery. He deserves to lose this game.

poorly trolled.

#fail

Ichiro gets his 3,000th hit.

With 51 games left, at what point in time does this become more than just a slump? This team is consistently playing passive and not to lose.

BTW, Span has done just about enough now to get himself taken out of the leadoff spot. The leadoff man should be able to get a damn bunt down to move the runners up in a key spot, rather than feebly striking out.

Bumgarner: 9 ER allowed in the last 5 starts - all losses by the Giants. Last win was 4 weeks ago today vs. AZ.

This sums up my feelings


...rooting for the bosox...


JC can play stopper tomorrow, and we will score runs.

 

[LHG]

So the offense DID decide that their accomplishments were enough to rest on for a few days!

At least we know they have it in them.

oh btw here is the free game of the day for august. I tried to make the image appear but failed, and I don't know if I'll be able to replicate the search again.

One game....

One game....

Time now to also watch the WC standings - lead STL by 5 and MIA by 4.

7 games lost to L.A. since 6/27 and 5.5 since the break. All of the buffer that was built up has nearly gone down the toilet in 3 garbage weeks of pathetic baseball.

every team; every year. And yesterday wasn't garbage..that was a GREAT game that we happened to lose.

The pitching was great, of course, but the lack of situational hitting again cost them the game.
