Drill Pence, I say.

That's Cal, our official warm and fuzzy greeter on this board.

 

[Stokes1931]

Mariners are the floor at .221

Let's scored some d@mned runs this inning! I don't care, even score some blessed runs! I am tired of this kaka.

OK, I am not watching the game (Effing Fox San Diego is showing game 74 of the 2011 series between the Spanks and the Sax), but I did see a quick highlight of the Beltran throw to Panda that panda fumbled. It looks to me like that was a play Nate would have made in his sleep, and Panda would not have had to step up, off the bag to get the ball.

Now, I understand Nate is not playing today, and I am OK with that. I am simply using this play as an example of the defensive differences between the two.

Nate needs to play right when he plays.

Period.

Ooh! A rally. 1st and 2nd, no outs. How can we screw the pooch on this one?

Well, Carlos RBI Beltran just strikes out on 3 pitches.

Now panda GIDP on the first freaking pitch? WTF?

I'm out for a while. This is too pathetic, and beyond torture.

 

[filosofy29]

Strikeout.....now cue the double play.....

I was only kidding. This team can't hit for shit.

There you go

 

[calsnowskier]

Stokes, are you using that shutgun over there?

 

[Stokes1931]

Stokes, are you using that shutgun over there?

BOOM!

 

[calsnowskier]

BOOM!

Well, I WAS going to ask him to pass it over, but he OBVIOUSLY can't now...

Filo, do you mind?

 

[calsnowskier]

Just a review of the bottom of the 5th...

OC - fpom
Ross - NICE 8 pitch AB
Huff - fpom


I simply can not figure out why the Giants can't ever get a rally going.

 

[TheSaboteur]

Ryan Howard reminds me of Aaron Rowand and Cody Ross.

 

[calsnowskier]

What happened to Cain's bat? He used to be a legit hitter (for a pitcher, of course)

Whiteside happened.

 

[calsnowskier]

Whiteside happened.

What would happen if Whiteside and Nick Lowery played on the same team?

Is Nick's pure awesomeness enough to envelope Whiteside's suck-i-tude, or will Eli's black hole swallow the beauty that is Nick Lowery?

 

[filosofy29]

The Giants offense is experiencing technical difficulties. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Please note we are working feverishly to right this situation.

 

[calsnowskier]

When half the hitter fpom, how can the pitcher be considered to be "dominant"?

(Flemm just described Hamels as dominant)
