Game Thread: 9/25 Who Cares @ Who Cares

Parker may be a complete doofus in the OF, but the dude can hit 'em a long way.

 

[LHG]

And to think, they weren't given going to bring him up.

Still useful as a bench bat. I still don't know why they didn't call him up sooner.

In case you wanted an answer, DeAza has 2 RBIs with the Giants. His OPS with the team is .751. His .367 OBP ranks 4th among all Giant hitters.

That was my feel. He has been quite, but rather good.

Not a game breaker, but a nice 4/5.

They had Nick Noonan, who else you need off the bench?

 

[LHG]

Rookie - home run. Rookie - solid single. Veteran - weak pop up.

Seems to have DH written all over him. But since we're not going anywhere in the playoffs, I was curious why he wasn't called up sooner, too.

They trust him in center. I would be OK with him in left...

IF THE BAT IS FOR REAL.

Fire Bam Bam!

Mac looking bad in the OF and looking bad on the base paths.

This is his first start, so I will give him a pass tonight, but he is not impressing me.

 

[Stokes1931]

Mac now with two (2) career hits.

I really hope the next Giants' arsonist, er, pitcher from the bully has a SDI and not one where the leadoff hitter gets on. Again.

He's getting hits. Doubt that the outcome would be any different if he didn't run in to the fielder. Give him time.

 

[calsnowskier]

JA entering the last week of his career. I hope he gets a job with CSNBA or MLB network. I really think he has a future behind the mic.

 

[Stokes1931]

And just like that, JA, allows the leadoff hitter to get on.

Agreed. Heard him interviewed by Tolbert today, and JA seems a natural with a mic.

Yeah he's Duvall of the OF at this point. But he can hide out there. It was never really a point brought up by the beat writers (why he wasn't called up), but it must have been a pretty big deal.

He aims to please. Why do what no one else has done tonight?

Like I said... First game. I understand jitters.

Just saying he is not "Will Clarking" or "Brandon Crawfording" me.

You were impressed with Will Clark or Brandon Crawford in their first starts?

So why play him in center? Doesn't DeAza have experience in center? I know Parker was drafted as a CF (in the second round after Brown, BTW), but if he if Burrell/Morse out there, hide him in left.
