9/27 GDT Worms @ Teh Z

And just like that, the Giants fall behind, 1-2...

Belt getting exposed.

Not getting to that would be rough in the playoffs.

I did not see this play, but I am having flash-backs of Vlad in the WS...

Yikes.

Halladay too. Both Halladay and Lee were/are strike throwing pitchers who love to start the count 0-1.

Last I checked, we weren't facing Doc and Lee today. The approach worked well against the Snakes' starter, and has done nothing against the relievers. I don't think we've had a double digit pitch inning since the 2nd.

Oh no it wasn't that bad! And I think the sun had something to do with it. He was going back to his left and kind of stutter stepped at the end - or maybe that was just him being giraffey... Anyway it's just that Blanco would have had it for sure.

And Kontos relieves, and does his best Zeets imitation and issues a four pitch leadoff walk.

Following up with a double play grounder usually helps.

He's looked serviceable in his other appearances, so maybe it's just a tough sky today, because he's definitely been slow to react to a few of those balls.

 

[calsnowskier]

LOL

Nice pitching, rook!!

Whoa Stokesy! Sure thing brother. I like watching the patient, methodical at bats too. FPOM are frustrating as hell. I was more piggy-backing off of what Cal was saying about last year's postseason success, rather than making a declaration on what I'd prefer to watch. I'd much rather watch a team of Scutaro's and Posey's than a team of Panda's and Pence's.

I think that's it. He's no Blanco out there, but he's no Burrell either.

And tz...

Happy New Year...

L'shanna tova to you too.

I would like to see Belt get the start in Left in all the remaining games. Treat them like ST games for him.

Play Huff @ 1B, see if he earns a PO spot...

Serious question... Can Huff play the field at all right now? I'd like to see him as a PH in the postseason regardless...

5 FPOMs today, including Chez3's GIDP. Fucking Hacktacular.

Doesn't appear he can run well enough to play the OF, 1B probably. But I doubt he'd start or be inserted at 1B except in an emergency.

Yeah definitely no OF... Or 2B.

 

[iHATEdodgers]

Well that sucked.

 

[gp956]

Hope the MVP voters did not see that. Just sweep that one over into the corner.
