Lineup:

CF Metal Stabtoaster
2B Burriss
3B Sandoval
1B Huff
LF Ross
RF Schierholtz
SS Crawford

Bochy shaking things up. Torres sits, MiggE6 sits...wow it's tough to see four runs here.

Nobody on either team with any significant history vs. the opposing starter.

Cmon Vogey!!

I'd like another early ending. Those games out west get late here in the central. Be nice to get to bed at a decent time again.

How'd you guys win the WS with that lineup?

Because Tim Lincecum is the greatest pitcher ever, and Cain second only to Lincecum. Getting back to being serious, the Giants WS lineup was much different and better. The loss of Posey is killin' us right now.

C'mon Vogs, keep it up and get the Giants back on track! Damn, I'm starting to sound like Grabsumpinemeat.

We have, essentially, 5 big bats on the roster.

Two of them are out for the season.

Two of them are having career-worst seasons.

One of them was having a very nice year then lost a month to injury and has been doing OK since coming back.

You, as a Twink fan, understand injuries. Do we REALLY need to explain them?

I know, Twins have been plagued with the injury bug this year also. We are finally getting healthy again.

Injuries happen, so it's no excuse. I was hoping that the Giants had enough organizational depth to absorb the injury bug, but it's lookin' like the Giants need to make some trades to give themselves a reasonable chance at making the playoffs and repeating.

All good.

We give each other shit over here, but we also know each other and understand that we all, at least to a degree, understand the game. Hence, we (read "I") tend to have dripping sarcasm and playful asshole-ness woven into our posts.

I did not take your post as trollish. :)

Imagine if you lost Mauer and Morneau for the year...that's what we're dealing with.
