GDT 5/23 Giants @ Used Cars (For the Broom)

Hello Gents

 

[calsnowskier]

I think it is definitely time to send Belt to Fresno for a confidence boost. Let him rake there for a month and come back...

Baby G just refuses to swing the bat...

Agreed. OTOH, Kobe can feel free to stay and start taking balls at 2B.

Angry B: NONE OF YOU FUCKERS THOUGHT I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING WHEN I PINCH HIT HUFF. WELL FUCK YOU; IT'S A GAME NOW.

 

[tzill]

40 pitch mark for Loe.

... and short! (Stamos' recent bat command, notwithstanding)

 

[tzill]

At least Nate swung the fucking bat.

I'm less concerned about Stamos than Baby G/Huff/Pill

 

[tzill]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand Mangina FPOMs a Huffer.

Angry B: GET YOUR BAGS PACKED MANNY, I'M TIRED OF YOUR SHIT.

 

[tzill]

OTOH, we get one more inning of Loux.

I assume Riot is already in Miami?

 

[Heathbar012]

Agreed. I think he'll get back to what he projects to with the glove, and Arias will be ++++ defensively at 2B, when Pablo comes back. It would be nice if one of the utility infielders that will be on the team next week could play SS, though. Nothing wrong with a little lefty-righty platoon where Riot gets some statue time at second.

On a related note, I would have loved to see Boch's face while Burriss was hustling down the line to close out that inning. I'm sure it was a contented, "Yeah, you better sprint" look.

DFA Manny, activate Riot, Noonan is next up, with a 40-spot ready for him. (that would actually leave us with only 38 on the 40, which COULD open a spot for Cristian)

Agreed , I'm getting tired of these weak AB's

Maybe it's time to give Chez 3 a 1B glove and get his bat in the lineup if Bochy is only going to play Pill vs LHP

Fine by me. That kid needs to see some more major league pitching.

I don't know why you guys are so considered about Belt. All he needs to do is learn the only way you get a hit is by swinging the bat. Simple thing he just needs to read.

Tony Plush whacks pitch #40 from Loux.

AB: GOOD HUSTLE, MANNY. IT'S A DAY LATE TO SAVE YOUR ML CAREER, BUT AT LEAST IT SHOWS YOU AREN'T COMPLETELY STUPID.

Last year, his problem was that he went up there looking for a walk. That meant that his AFTER-thought was to swing, which meant that he was behind on all the pitches.

This year, when he swings, his bat has an upper-cut to it, so he swings through most pitches, AND he is looking for the walk. Bad combination.

JT stated some serious concern about him the other day when talking to Tommy T.
