All Optimism, All Season

It's April 8th. The Giants are bad. We have six more months of nothing to dissect. The Mercury News tried to make us feel worse, but this team is like a morphine injection right to the spine. There's a little pain, but it's fading.
So, quick! Before the pain moves from dull ache to complete numbness! We have to get our last jabs of incredulous pessimism in! In July, I'll be posting something about how Fred Lewis's .269/.340/.412 line is the best on the team, and how he might be playing himself into a starting job for 2009. You'll put up a fanpost in August with a title of, "John Bowker: 1B of the future?" We'll all start to root around for optimism, looking under the movie theater seat during Leonard Part 6 and trying to find a Junior Mint that hasn't been stepped on, or at least, still has most of the chocolate shell. Who cares if the chocolate has a thumbprint on it? You can't taste a thumbprint. Usually.
But we still have time to be absolutely stunned by how awful this team is. Here's a list of NL teams. The players to the right of the teams are hitters who are better suited to be a cleanup hitter than is Bengie Molina:
Atlanta - McCann, Teixeira, Jones, Johnson, Francoeur
Philadelphia - Howard, Utley, Rollins, Burrell, Jenkins
Mets - Delgado, Wright, Alou, Beltran
Washington - Johnson, Zimmerman, Milledge, Young
Milwaukee - Fielder, Weeks, Hall, Hardy, Braun, Hart
St. Louis - Pujols, Glaus, Ankiel, Duncan
Cubs - Soto, Lee, Ramirez, Soriano, Fukudome
Cincinnati - Encarnacion, Dunn, Griffey, Votto, Arroyo
Pittsburgh - LaRoche, Doumit, Bay, Nady
Houston - Berkman, Wigginton, Tejada, Lee, Pence
Arizona - Jackson, Reynolds, Byrnes, Young, Upton, Owings
San Diego - Gonzalez, Kouzmanoff, Greene, Hairston
Los Angeles - Martin, Loney, Kent, Jones, Kemp
Every team in the National League has at least four offensive players the Giants could use as their cleanup hitter. I probably forgot a bunch, and maybe I stretched it with hitters like Kelly Johnson. Still, it's worth noting that during every game this season, we'll be facing a team with a #7 hitter that could bat cleanup for us. Every team, including the ones that usually get lumped in with the Giants, like the Pirates and Marlins. They can't even sniff this kind of offensive ineptitude. Please.
So today is open fun fact day. Did you know that ___? For example: Did you know that the Giants only have two players with more than one RBI? Did you know that 55 players have as many or more home runs than does the entire Giants team? Open fun fact day. Get digging. Think of a column Jayson Stark might write the day after he was dumped on his wedding day.

Did you know that the Giants have a 1st baseman version of Jack Cust in their farm system, who has hit 20 or more homers 8 times and 30 or more on 3 occasions, including last year, and yet they stubbornly refuse to promote him, ostensibly based on age, when he's a full 5 years younger than their starting shortstop?
Give McClain a fucking chance already!!!!!!

Dear Abby,
Hi,
My name is Scott McClain. Here are my stats. Note all the home runs. I'm like Crash Davis and Jack Cust combined. And I'm a first baseman. Yet the Giants prefer to start Rich Aurilia and Dan Ortmeier instead of me, and have Benji Molina as their cleanup hitter. So anyway, on to my question...
What friggin' universe am I living in, where I haven't been at least extended a good long look yet???

Watching Durham et. al. play lousy does nothing to entice teams into trading for them. It might prove they're injury free, but with this gang it's more likely to result in them injuring themselves.

Aurilia had one good year back in 2000. Durham was a pretty good player up to a couple years ago. Neither has any trade value, since every other front office in MLB is laughing at the fact that the Giants are keeping these clowns on a major league roster.

This is just nitpicky
But Aurilia had more than one good year. In fact, 2001 was a great year for Rich Aurilia.
Only 964 games until the end of Zito's contract

Not two years...
...more like 8 months older. Aurilia was born in September 71, McClain in May 72.

From wiki
"The plant's name combines the morphemes pea and nut, causing some confusion as to the nature of the fruit. Although a nut in the culinary sense, in the botanical sense the fruit of the peanut plant is a woody, indehiscent legume and not a nut. The word pea describes the edible seeds of many other legumes in the Fabaceae family, and in that sense, a peanut is a kind of pea."

Well, as I said to calm myself over the past few years, the bright side of the Giants completely sucking is that Sabean can no longer possibly think that he's any good. Had he left while still riding Barry's coattails, he could have deluded himself. It's just plain inexcusable how he has failed to plan for this.
