This pitcher's been able to paint the outside corner really well

Stupid Bochy!

So he brings in Ramirez for Lincecum. Fine. But why bat Ramirez 9th?

Why not pull Gullen and put in Ross or Nate or even Rowand to bat 9th, and Ramirez can bat in Guillen's spot?

Now, Ramirez can only pitch an inning, unless we allow him to hit for himself.

Bochy sometimes seems as dumb as they come.

Not a bad start by Lincecum. Best one he's had in awhile, which says something.

That's what I said. One bad changeup between a loss and a great game (which we might still have lost). I actually like Tim's guts today. I hope he builds on it.

Stokes, are you Tito? Nolan? Bochy is no genius but he's pretty average as a manager. Not horrible, not great. Check EVERY team's board after a loss. They ALL have the worst dumbest manager ever.

Ah, ya caught me. I am, in fact, Tito. EZ all good!!!!

Well, it just seemed to me that with a depleted bullpen, at least you want to give yourself a chance for a guy like Ramirez to work more than an inning. That obviously will not happen now.

Heck, if I had been managing this team, we would have never lost.

Typical. Score a gazillion runs in three games, but can't score in extra innings when you really need the win, and then come back after a day of rest to (so far) get shut out by a rookie from Stockton. (Sigh)

Nice AB by Franchez, perhaps his hot streak has earned him the chance to bat 2nd. Posey is not doing well in the #2 spot. In fact, Posey looks like he needs a day off.
