On the plus side, I suppose that sections 123-128 are now prime "boo your own player" territory.  I plan on making plenty of visits down there to heckle and bemoan not only Slappy Pete, but also El Mondo as he's warming up in the 'pen.

Please have better pitch recognition, pitch selection and drive the ball up the middle and to RF. The Giants can use your versatility, defense and run producing. Bienvenidos Feliz!!!

Guess that didn't work...Watch out for Brian Tickell.

Looking extra ratty.

In an attempt to continue the hitting development of young catcher Eliezar Alfonzo, the San Francisco Giants have resigned the only person he even thinks about listening to.

After the signing Sabean was quoted as saying, "Well for Christ's sake, somebody has to coach Alf!"

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Younger. Faster. Stronger.  In some Bizzaro Universe maybe.

Older. Slower. Weaker.

Tarded Magowan has finally given himself the Fleer-Topps cardboard enema of all-time.

With the exception of Bonds' range (if he signs). And his's arm. And Roberts' noodle arm. And Winn's. And Molina's, who can't throw out more than 20% of base stealers. And Molina's limited blocking / lateral movement ability. And the fact that Roberts is better in LF than CF. And that Ray occasionally suffers from bouts of manos de piedras. And that Richie has very limited experience at first base.

Other than that, the Giants are a pretty slick fielding team. Hopefully the Giants manage win a lot of 3-2, 2-1 games, and the pitchers spend a lot of time holding runners on first. Is there really a more exciting element of the grand game, than four consectuvie throws to first base?

Wow, I actually feel better getting all that snarkiness out of my system. Thanks for allowing the emotional enema, McCoven. It's been a rough day for all of us.
