If any of the mods catch a topic that has been discussed very recently, we’ll delete it if it hasn’t gotten a lot of responses already. Otherwise it’ll just turn into a Thread Hijack.

Press conference now… sounds like he said he wasn’t going to allow the game to end on a rainout. Had the Phillies been leading, it would have officially gone into rain delay, even if “delay” lasted til the next day.

GREAT SUCCESS!!!!
The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and the chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby.

Thanks, Baggs
Decker’s Little Giants were almost as good before losing in the Cal League playoffs; the former big league catcher has built a strong reputation for developing winning players.
The Double-A club will be a huge responsibility next season, when the Defenders are expected to get the Giants’ top two pitching prospects, Bumgarner and Tim Alderson, and possibly Noonan as well. With Decker at Connecticut, it’s reasonable to assume that top pick Buster Posey will be assigned there, too.
Posey might be a Gold Glove catcher in the making, but he’s only been playing the position a couple years and still has a lot to learn. He apparently had trouble with passed balls in Hawaii earlier this month. Decker should help him straighten out.
Yep.

I’m conflicted. If the Rays go from worst to WS champs, it buoys my false hope in the Giants that they won’t suck some day.
But I’m also tired of the NL being the AL’s WS bitches.

Actually, he was kind of getting me mad at the plate this World Series. I swear there were stretches of his time here where he seemed to be making an effort to become more selective, but obviously he would always revert back to hacking mode.
He did pick up a few key hits, though, and he had a few nice plays in the field. He wasn’t the difference of course, but he did his fair share.
