this team sucks. hitter, minor leaguer, hitter, minor leaguer. you are spending close to $200 million and this is what you have esp in Left field?

Bee OK, Thursday, 20 April 2017 02:30 (seven years ago) link

not having fun watching this year

Bee OK, Thursday, 20 April 2017 02:30 (seven years ago) link

bee its like two weeks into the season its ok

Spottie, Thursday, 20 April 2017 03:13 (seven years ago) link

the left field problem is going to last all season. the rest i'm okay with. nothing like coors field to get your hitting groove back again.

btw christian arroyo is destroying triple-a rn, but idk where you'd put him because he's an infielder

Michael F Gill, Saturday, 22 April 2017 00:44 (seven years ago) link

fuck, it's over

Bee OK, Saturday, 22 April 2017 01:09 (seven years ago) link

Bee OK, Saturday, 22 April 2017 01:10 (seven years ago) link

doesn't mean we can't resign him but so many teams will be in on it.

"Giants outfielder Melvin Upton Jr. has undergone surgery to repair a torn ligament in his thumb, GM Bobby Evans tells reporters including Andrew Baggarly of the Mercury News (via Twitter). He is expected to miss at least eight weeks of action."

Bee OK, Saturday, 22 April 2017 01:42 (seven years ago) link

lol,m they should just sell the player on this team, come back in two years

Bee OK, Saturday, 22 April 2017 01:43 (seven years ago) link

up three runs with Cueto on the hill should be OK but it's 2017 so they have to give up grand slams

Bee OK, Saturday, 22 April 2017 01:49 (seven years ago) link

I wish I wasn't a Giants fan so I could fully enjoy that Pence slip.

Van Horn Street, Saturday, 22 April 2017 01:58 (seven years ago) link

Instead, it's just misery.

Van Horn Street, Saturday, 22 April 2017 01:58 (seven years ago) link

i hate Coors, this is not real baseball

Bee OK, Saturday, 22 April 2017 02:00 (seven years ago) link

im out

Bee OK, Saturday, 22 April 2017 02:00 (seven years ago) link

You missed that Belt bomb.

Van Horn Street, Saturday, 22 April 2017 02:04 (seven years ago) link

Cueto will be 32 next winter, Bee, teams don't give big paydays to guys like that anymore

Supercreditor (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 22 April 2017 12:13 (seven years ago) link

of course they do. look at Price, Lester, Greinke.

Van Horn Street, Saturday, 22 April 2017 16:28 (seven years ago) link

ok a few, i guess

Supercreditor (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 22 April 2017 17:29 (seven years ago) link

not arguing it's a good strategy, just that it's rather common.

Van Horn Street, Sunday, 23 April 2017 01:57 (seven years ago) link

This is not working.

Van Horn Street, Monday, 24 April 2017 04:26 (seven years ago) link

nice move, DumBum.

Arroyo and Stubbs in the squad.

Romo tonight in Dodger Blue at AT&T.

Van Horn Street, Monday, 24 April 2017 23:23 (seven years ago) link

Arroyo is up. OK i can get excited about that.

Bee OK, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 00:44 (seven years ago) link

Way to go Matt Cain.

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 02:55 (seven years ago) link

mmm Cain's departure is weird, but that's a second good Cain game in a row and that's one of the few positive stories this month.

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 04:01 (seven years ago) link

Buster Posey you beautiful georgian.

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 05:14 (seven years ago) link

i'm backed out because i live the Los Angeles market and Dodgers TV...

i see that they won, with Matt Cain again?

Bee OK, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 05:17 (seven years ago) link

yeah! he's been good, I'm telling you. However, now he might be injured.

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 05:21 (seven years ago) link

what, really? of course it's 2017.

Bee OK, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 05:41 (seven years ago) link

Now, let's talk cell-phone flashlights and the so-called "rally lights" at AT&T Park. Our Sam Whiting wrote about it here. It's cute. It's fun. And it's drawn the attention of the league, which has let the Giants know it's not completely kosher.

A major-league source told me that the umpires have been in contact with the league, which has contacted stadium officials to express its concern that an infielder could get hurt by losing a ball in those flashlights. These are not Hollywood Kleig lights by any means, but if you're standing at third base and a line drive comes at your head, it might be hard to distinguish the ball from those lights.

Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner complained about one light that was shining in his eyes Monday night. The umpires stopped the game briefly and had the customer flip off his light.

Now, this is not the No Fun League. Baseball has not told the Giants that fans cannot do the rally lights. But it wants the team to work with ushers in the sections between the bases behind the plate to get those lights turned off for safety reasons.

The last thing the league wants is to stop a game because of this. For one thing, officials understand that fans being fans, that'll only make them keep the lights on longer, at the expense of their cellphone batteries.

But, the umpires have the right to stop the game and take the drastic measure of ending it. If they do, Giants lose 9-0 by forfeit.

So, if an usher tells you to turn of your cellphone flash, it might be a good idea.

welcome back Michael Morse.

not very excited about this but he is a good dude and makes the clubhouse fun.

Bee OK, Thursday, 27 April 2017 00:39 (seven years ago) link

Morse is a big apeman beast

(with DDD steroid tits, one infamous baseball blogger put it)

i don't understand why the giants and angel pagan are shunning each other

if pagan can't get a deal now, he's not gonna get one at 36. and morse is like the giants' 10th outfielder already this season, and not much of one

mookieproof, Thursday, 27 April 2017 00:49 (seven years ago) link

i can't fucking watch but i just read. Michael Morse just hit a home run to tie the game.

Bee OK, Thursday, 27 April 2017 04:39 (seven years ago) link

@BNightengale
The #SFGiants make the severity of Bumgarner's injury official, announcing that he will be out a minimum of 3 months, perhaps until August.

Andy K, Saturday, 29 April 2017 01:51 (seven years ago) link

No respect for the game.

mookieproof, Saturday, 29 April 2017 02:00 (seven years ago) link

of course

Jeff Samardzija first hit is a game tieing home run. 2-2

Bee OK, Saturday, 29 April 2017 03:22 (seven years ago) link

So I guess the Giants are as bad as they were in the second half of 2016, and unless they find a way to dramatically turn it around in May, it looks like they are going to be sellers. Cueto can opt out this summer, I guess this makes him a good trade target? I think the small core is there (the homegrown infield, Ty Blach, Moore, Bumgarner), everything else is a mess. Nunez and Span are combining for -0,6, that's two third of the infield for the next couple of months.
