Open Gameday Thread, 3/13

Tiny by kenshin1 on in News

Thanks to wilriv for staying on top of the spring training games.

The Giants hold a 2-0 lead in the 1st.

Ed. note: The new format that's coming will allow me (Grant) to put these damn things up well in advance and have them appear at a scheduled time. Then I can get rid of Goofus, kenshin, and Natto. I'll keep Josh From Hollywood around in case he ever gets all famous and junk, but the rest of these goons will be expendable.

Re: open gameday thread 3/13
Frandsen still has the DP bug.  especially against crafty pitchers like Washburn, lefty or righty, he can look overmatched.  Not that I saw anything, I'm just remembering last year

You say that now, but I know you'll be coming crawling back to us, begging for our help. Specifically Goofus.

I plan on enacting a few bans while I still can.

Hmm..
I think I'll decide not to post so you can't find my name as easily.  I know you're too lazy to go looking for people to ban.

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 3/13
As part of a little optimism, I was going to post a diary how I just turned 25 and got a Cain home jersey for my 25th birthday, complete w/photos.

Then I figured no one would want to see that, so I'll just say that that little gift made me realized I'm still excited for the season and Giants, no matter what logic tells me about how they'll perform.

Re: Cal vs UCLA just tipped off
Things they have in common: color schemes (the light blue and gold is lame, though), ursine mascots, being overrated universities that I dislike.

zzzzz

I seriously missed the 's' in 'ursine' the first time I read that comment. You can imagine my confusion.

so, are the Giants ever gonna let Danny Glover have just one at bat?

Oh no
Frandsen hit by pitch in the head.  It didn't sound good on the radio.  He left the game and Denker came in to run for him.

by Cainer on Mar 13, 2008 3:09 PM PDT   0 recs

At least it wasn't a fastball
The announcers say the pitch was a knuckle ball that hit off the helmet ear flap.

Re: Forget Inge, forget Crede
I still think firstbase is our weakest immediate hole to fill, but whaddya gone give up for Konerko? Seems to me that Dan Johnson is a more reasonable proposition (as boring as that sounds).

Is Gameday Audio not working for anyone else? It gives me some BS about my credit card. But I think it auto-renews.

Thanks ... it won't even let me sign on. Oh well, the game is almost over anyway.

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 3/13
it has occasionally been giving me a hard time connecting, for no good reason (I paid up a couple of weeks back). Whenever it shows a message that prevents me from signing in, I shut down my browser, re-open, and it shows the login boxes. Then it works fine. Who knows?

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 3/13
anybody know if there was a split squad today?  several missing, like Rowand, Bocock, Roberts, Ort

not that there's anything wrong with Fred and Eugenio starting...
