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?

by Azmanz on Apr 29, 2008 6:12 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Only in key, late-inning situations when the Giants are facing elimination in the NLCS.

Tim's Luck

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.

Holliday double

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.
