So those ads they keep running on TV (and radio) to sell you a Matt Cain 'perfect game' bat, limited to 2012 of them for $100...I don't get the economics:

You get max $200K, then the cost of making the bats, the constant ads, labor, etc. Is that a money maker?

Shouldn't it be a ball anyway? That bat doesn't have any hits in it.

Camera captures Ratto thinking...."how can I find the dark cloud in this game?"

And Ray delivers:

And now Giant fans are temporarily lost, for there is no starting pitcher for them to pace nervously about, and that makes them jumpy.

would have been funnier had he written:

You don't like free money? The manufacturer is probably a one man operation with all the idle capital he needs to churn these out. Otherwise the commemorative item should be a ball - as iHatedogers points out - that makes more sense.

Yeah but they don't have any perfect games in those 7 wins....

and,

they don't have a World Series in SF without him....

so,

I think they should stick with him a little longer. (I would insert a smiley face but I am not that smart)

Bah! DFA him immediately! What? You don't want a .777 winning percentage. Numbers don't lie! ;)

I'd trade him for Mike Trout.

Scary thing is, that's not a bad idea. All sentiment aside.

Who else would we be smart to trade him for? Not that it would happen.

Bryce Harper?

Since Melky has been such a big disappointment this year, maybe they would take him back straight up for Sanchez.
