PrintTestin' out this newfangled "scheduled posting" thingie.
Giants v. Cubs. The Giants' "speed-'n'-defense 'em into a tie"-strategy might not work in the regular season, but it'll do just fine for the Cactus League.

Nice to see the scheduled posting function is working.
First pitch is only about 7 hours away, what shall we talk about?

That's my favorite current one but they had this PBJ flavor a few years ago that was pure frozen awesome.

Here's a vote for New York Super Fudge Chunk
(Tiptoes to the freezer)
Giants win the pennant ... in 2012!!
I think that's Neil Young. But I kinda hope I'm wrong.
Your 2011 SF Giants: the 2008 Augusta Greenjackets!
Seconded!
Around my house, NYSFC even has its own theme song.
2008: My previous assessment may have been overly optimistic.
much obliged
i thought the brass was considering shifting Sanchez and Correia around so as to not have the LHPs back-to-back? Now is a good time as any to do it, especially with yesterday's off day. This way when Lowry returns he can just plop into Zito's spot in rotation.
North or South?

So, Grant...

Did anyone catch those names?
I heard Schierholtz, and the Burriss and Ochoa.
I think there were two others?
Good!

San Francisco Giants
Optioned IFs Travis Denker, IF Travis Ishikawa and OF Nate Schierholtz to Triple-A Fresno, reassigned IF Emmanuel Burriss and IF Ivan Ochoa to Minor League camp and added IF Ryan Rohlinger as a non-roster invitee to Major League camp.
That's weird...
Could've sworn he said Zito was DFA'ed, but that may have been wishful thinking.
That's all I can stands, I can't stands no more!
I thought he said DOA, so I'm more disappointed than you. (or Sue Burns checkbook)

Get that kid a real baseball hat. One that's black and orange instead of pink and white.

She's fine the way she is
Right now I'm just happy she'll wear a baseball cap at all. Also, they don't have too much selection of Giants caps here in Singapore. She'll get a black and orange one some day.

The stupid Giants broadcasts web site said that this would be on KNBR. It wasn't!
And then we still can't get stupid MLB radio to work. Tried putting in a new credit card, got "ERRORS" up the bocock. I don't approve.
