I see that the recent influx of "new blood" to the MLB board brought over some real treasures. But it's not just the new guys ...


The dude is trying his best to damage a very successful forum. Bizarre.

IMHO...

If a 1-hour drive by can kill this board, this board is FAR from successful.

:2cents:



True, although I can't believe we've lost two of our most loyal, talented posters over a single drive-by.

Either there is a lot more to all of this than I can figure out, or gp and filo have very thin skin.

I'm going with the former.

GP took off about 2 months ago. He hasn't seen the recent events.

Filo had other issues. This was just a scapegoat.

Thanks for having me . Hopefully the quality Giants fans from CBS make it over here . There were many .

Work 'em, dude. Work 'em!

We are few (about a dozen or so regulars with another dozen or so ocassionals). Would be great to merge with another solid crew. We have all been posting together for upwards of 7 years, and a certain group-think seeps in over that long a time. Would be nice to get some good-hearted debate with others that are batty for team as much as we are.

Welcome, Willie Dog. :suds: Bring your buddies from CBS on over. This is a tight-knit Giants board and you guys should really enjoy it.

Holy shit what a GREAT game. No matter the outcome, this is seriously entertaining NL baseball.

241 career starts and this is easily the worst five game stretch of his career. 7.85 ERA over the past five games. Bruce Bochy has DustyBakered his arm.

If it is true that Cain is done (not agreeing at all, but just conceding the point in for sake of argument), than blowing a kids arm out in favor of 2 rings is worth it. Many a player has blown out an arm just for the chance at one ring (Nen comes to mind). To have two in the bank is kinda what it is all about.

However, as stated elsewhere, Cain is just getting to that transition point in his career where his heat is just not what it used to be. He is adding more junk to the forefront of his repertoire, and they are not quite as crisp as his power pitches. He is a smart kid, and knows how to pitch. He may not be an Ace for a year or two (again, not saying this is the case, but it is possible), but he is a horse an anchor for a staff.

Ain't worried.
