Adopted Giants: Please Reclaim Your Guy
by delorean on Apr 9, 2008 9:18 AM PDT
Email
PrintI guess we lost the adoption papers in the great transition from old skool McCoven to new school SB Nation platform. Not even Grant has a record of who had whom, so I thought I'd start a FanPost to try and track all the adoptions. (The hidden agenda is that I want to upgrade from Billy Hayes, bullpen catcher, to Erick Threets, last-ditch reliever, if he's not already claimed.)
Please post your adopted dude here, and please feel free to Recommend this FanPost so it can stay on the front page and hopefully everyone can see it. Once we've accounted for everyone, maybe we can archive this somehow or someone can host it on their webserver?
Awesome. Thanks.
*edit*: It just occurred to me that one of you may have a record of the Adoption List. If that's the case, please share it! Then I can delete this stoopid thing.

Umm...
Did anyone have Steve Holm? I'd like to take him into the Gore household if no one's claimed him.
Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue...
STEVE HOLT!
I say that everytime he's mentioned. My wife is a LITTLE tired of it by now...

Not So Fast....
Here is a link to the old Wiki Adopted Page .
I suppose it would be up Grant weather or not we continue to use the prior adoption "papers" granted, pun intended, by the Court of McCoven.
I reserve the right to adopt my two wayward sons.
My adopted son Matt Downs. Bill Mueller without the two-flap helmet .
boosh!
nice one, nvsfg!
now who is this mx33mob character??
also, no one's adopted the Crab yet.... :-D
Billy Hayes: Nine more big-league plate appearances than you.
I suppose that
wayward members should be allowed a certain time period ( 15, 30 days ?) to reclaim their children. After that it's so on :-)
We also need to add the new "old" Giants.

It was long ago established by Howie that adoption-realted rulings are Goofus country. (Since Goofus thought up the whole adoption thing.)

Sorry, I've already got Denker. If you can come up with some kind of interesting proposal, maybe we can make an arrangement. That ended up sounding pretty sleazy.

Denker for a PTBNL or cash considerations?

I don't know, Denker's value is at an all-time low right now with his start this season. I think I'll hold on to him for a bit to boost his value. You'll be the first one I call to sell high though!

Derin McMains
Because he took Trevor Hoffman deep in a spring traning game I attended in 2006. He can always shack up with me, until the Giants non-tender or Rule 5 him, which could have already happened for all I know.
Let's be honest, what parent nowadays is able to keep close tabs on his youngins?
Derin McMains had five fingers, but he only used three.
someone to cheer in the Gameday threads, when the adopted player is up to bat, pitch, makes a play, or is randomly pictured in the dugout with bubblegum on his cap.
someone to speak up when the adopted is getting slammed in a posting or diary/fanpost.
coming up with silly signatures about Bocock.
Adopted papa of a bouncing new waiver wire 27 year old. Castillo hits doubles.
Also,
It's a great way to insulate against complete and abject depression and disillusion - everytime a comment about a player is made, SOMEBODY has to defend him.
So we're just really, really, really, really, really depressed instead.
Delaying the disappointment: I adopt Hector Sanchez because he's only 17.
Ok, cool. I think I get it now. Sounds fun. Damn, who's left? Is Steve Kline still available...oh wait...
Steve Kline was never available

I'll bet that comes off as much more hostile than I intended to people who don't know that Steve Kline was my adoptee.
