Open Gameday Thread, 4/10
St. Louis Cardinals at San Francisco Giants, Apr 10, 2008 7:15 PM PDT
Superstitious, are you? Wishing Natto had opened this Gameday Thread, eh? Even though Natto is the Elvis Grbac to my Steve Young, I won't dissuade you all from thinking that his Gameday Threads are some sort of magic. We all need to believe in something.
But we all know there is only one time-honored superstition that is empirically proven to work. Along with the superstition, you receive free sodas, a soulmate, and milestone victories. Shipping and handling are extra, but it's a fantastic deal. I'm going tonight.
My superstition reigns supreme. What, do you think that because I'm actively crowing about the validity of a good-luck superstition before it happens that the Giants will suffer a crushing loss? Ha! I'd like to see that happen! Not in a million years. *makes offensive gesture towards sky, ostensibly to baseball gods* Do your worst!
So, uh, yeah. Correia vs. Adam Wainwright.

Fear not, Grant
You're a starter. I'm just the closer. Maybe you'll be able to pitch a shutout tonight. Of course, you'll have to get some run support first. Uh, I'm kinda losing this analogy... Anyway, let's not count our haystacks before they're green.

Grant needs to beware of the big first inning.
And he needs to be careful to keep that fastball down, otherwise something is going to metaphorically cream his imaginary pitches, or whatever we're talking about.

a lot of SS were horrible when they began and eventually became decent hitters. If Bocock could hit somewhere .240-.250 with OBP of .340+ he could be ML worthy
Quick justice
Aurilia didn't deserve to be on.
Bocock is probably the only position player in the NL who really ought to be bunting the runner over so the pitcher can take a shot at bringing him in.

Because you may be one of the variables in this. Is anyone here able to operate this website, GamedayAudio, and AIM at the same time without your internet going down?

Speed and defense
I think Pujols would be a good addition to the team
Same goes for Pujols's father...

Bad Henney tonight
Hennessey needs a scary fu manchu mustache, or vertical mustache coming down his chin, or really wild soul patch all over the place.
That's all I can stands, I can't stands no more!
or just a plain old good fastball

could it be that we're actually better than we all think we are??

well...
since a lot of us expected to lose all 162 after opening day in LA, I'm gonna say "yeah, a litle better than we thought..."
Yeah.

I like Fred Lewis
that slide into third was hilariously floptastic, but he took the ribbing with good humour. Seems like a nice kid. I wish Dave Roberts all the best on his surgery and convalescence but am excited to see Fred play more.
Ya baby, that's what I'm talking about.

For those who didn't see it
Kruk took a sip from his water bottle, recoiled in disgust, and threw the bottle down on the ground.

this is sad
and the first win to a starting pitcher on the 2008 season (i'm not counting timmy's win in LA) goes to kevin correia on his second time around the rotation. good omen for the season?...

+1! Good to see the comments after following on KNBR from work. I, for one, have never happier about a 4-6 record. I think this team will bring the McCoven closer together, no matter how many games they win.

What a game!
If Grant is Steve and Natto is Elvis, I'm Jim Druckenmiller; I'm a big stud with a cannon arm, but dumb as a bocks of rox.
I see others are jumping on to my Correia is the best #5 starter in the league.
Post game comment of the night from Fred Lewis on the Pujols line drive: "If I hadn't caught that ball, it would have gone through the wall."
2008 Giants: A steaming pile of scrap!
I love Fred.
