Giants Hot Stove League Nov 30 on KNBR: Damon Bruce Needs to Read Here Daily
Broadcast available for now on http://www.sfgiants.com under their Sights and Sounds section in middle of the webpage (its a javascript link so I'm not sure how to link to it from here) Damon Bruce and Dave Fleming host.
Have to get this off my chest first: among Damon Bruce's first statements is that he wonders why the Giants haven't made a bigger effort to sign some players now, like Feliz and Hillenbrand, in order to secure some spots.
@*#!#$!#%! Don't be the host of the Giants Hot Stove League show and say something stupid like this!!!!! If he all he did was read the SF Chronicle and SJ Mercury daily, or better yet, read HERE, he would know why: Feliz's agent was asking for the world and after bragging about the interest in his client, came back, hat in hand, hoping the Giants would sign Feliz for one year at $4M. Besides which, if he read any of the threads here, he would know how bad Feliz (and Hillenbrand) really is.
Dave Fleming was great, he clearly disagreed, but did it so diplomatically, simply stating that Feliz is not that good a hitter and the Giants are making a good faith effort to improve the team, not settle. Plus I think he later noted that Hillenbrand clearly did not play well here and the team was disappointed, so while they had interest to sign him originally, that has waned.
My notes, for those who don't have the time or don't care to listen:

Re: An' Another Thing
- The first caller of the evening called in to express his displeasure with the Giants "awful" offseason up to this point. Dave handled the question very well in stating that Giants fans need to reset their expectations. There just isn't any way the Giants can reasonably expect to build a championship caliber club with the talent available this offseason. He stated that Giants fans need to look at this as Part 1 of 2. Fill the holes you can now, hope for the best in 2007 and then really be aggressive at the end of 2007.
- Bochy is a really nice guy and a really awful interview.
- Bochy needs to stop referring to the Padres as "we" and the Giants as "them" or "you guys." You're with us now, Boch!

Since I'm excessiverepulsive, I found it a dandy summary.
There's not many local media people that really annoy me, but Damon Bruce is one of them. (The other is Glenn Dickey.)
