random Q, dont want to start a thread
what happens when Roberts comes back from the DL? does Freddie move to #4 like originally planned? or do we think Bochy is smart enough to use Roberts as a pinch hitter/runner?
Well

Sorry
Initially, I was trying to make one of Tim blowing up Lasorda, but Tommy’s boiler and mouth took up most of the frame.

I don’t know if this has been touched on, but as great as Timmy has been so far this year, he’s been insanely hit UNlucky. I’m not suggesting he can keep the ERA this low, but the imminent falloff isn’t as bad as some might think.

Miller said it came on a change up that floated over the plate. I like that the Enchanter is working on that pitch, which can only make him more devastating in the long run. I recall Miller saying a couple of weeks ago that he had been reluctant to throw it.

At times like this, I really wish we had a manager who would just throw a fit and get tossed. Bochy practically looks bored out there.
I kind of think...
Bochy’s waiting to get tossed and the ump won’t toss him.

Plan is Timmy you’ll throw a high fastball and Molina, you’ll pull your glove away at the last minute and you’ll hit the ump in the face.

That kind of thing should NEVER be allowed to decide a game. Total bullshit if we end up losing 3-2. Total bullshit anyway, but TOTAL BULLSHIT if it decides the game.

If this were professional wrestling, the ump and Winn would hit Lincecum with steal chairs and rip off their jerseys to reveal Rockies jerseys beneath. For fuck’s sake.

Time to face facts:
Ay-you-hay-nee-oh, to use the vernacular of our times, SUCKS.
DFA all Giants over 34 years old.
What in sam hell is going on in this game?! Man, Jon Miller was SO MAD. I like it.
Still watching out for Notgardo in Fresno. Hope you make it back up soon. We miss you 'round The City way. How come you never call?
Looking over at the SB Nation Rockies blog
Even most of them realize the balk was crap, although they’re not too sad about it.

This is not helping me study
Riddle:
I wear blue and white, I arrive to baseball games in the 4th inning, I leave in the 7th inning, my team's home stadium plays movie trailers between innings, I read magazines during the game, I play with beach balls, and I love the wave.
Who am I?
