Mota for closer?

Him or Casilla probably.

9/32 career in save opps. Not that that says much, but I still think it will be Affeldt and his 22 saves.

I like Affeldt, and he's almost always gets the job done. But he scares me.

Inner fandome erupting...

More than Casilla?

Yes. It's somewhat irrational i know. Something about lefty closers.....

Giants Win!!!

Is his (wife right?) even wearing his jersey number?

Alright! Dancing Sanchez gets some playing time before Opening Day

Casilla certainly has the stuff. Now that I think about it, they are pretty similar pitchers. Big sinking fastballs, knee-buckling curve and higher than you would like walk totals, though nothing too crazy.

Still think it will be between Romo and Affeldt

Giants look ready. Got a lot of quality parts.

LOL look at Cainer pointing in the background. This ones a keeper.

Haven't seen Romo's new sinker, but if he just had last year's stuff I'd be against it, i.e. when the slider was on he was unhittable, but when not he was a HR machine.

I agree with you, even with a sinker I'd still rather see a guy with a trusty fastball in the end.

I have full confidence that Bochy will make the right decision. Dude knows a thing or two about bullpens.

This is truth.

The morning guys were asking Kuip about who would be closing. Kuip said something like, "Don't expect the guy who starts the 9th to necessarily be the guy who earns the save." In other words, Casilla starts the 9th and faces Kemp, with Affeldt called in to get Ethier out. Seems to make sense.

 

[tzill]

run on Posey?? hahaha

maybe the runner got in there.

Need I remind you that Buster...ain't....havin....it.

 

[tzill]

Oh that vaguely rings a bell

great idea

How about tzill as the starting lefty (for obvious reasons) leading the league in ejections

Did you say erections?
