PrintPedro Feliz finally understands why the Giants no longer needed his services. Jose Castillo can ground into bases loaded double plays for a fraction of the cost.

If so, wow, you really hate Pat the bat.

Yeah. He does nothing but annoy and anger me.

Velez just looks so damn awkward at the plate

Stunning
100% of borderline calls have gone the Phillies’ way. Every last one.
Proud member of the Adopt-a-Giant program (Aaron Rowand)
Does Castillo have any options left?
He’s still relatively young, so he might.
And whose playing 3B for Fresno now
Let's bring the...
I don't think he does.
but I wouldn’t cry if we lost him
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
maybe Ned Colletti would think he was sabotaging us and pick him up
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
The Great LEONO
is the prime 3b case ready for the call up. Low AVG, High SLG.
Castillo hits doubles.
Meanwhile the Grizz are up 13-1. Clay Timpner has four hits and Threets had a perfect inning in relief.

Only we would have trouble scoring on Adam Eaton
Only 935 games until the end of Zito's contract
when tf did Aaron Rowand become one of my favorite Giants?
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
i think once we got passed the contract
and just watched what he was doing on the field, we could like him easier.. its not his fault hes overpaid, but he is still a good player
"Leave him in Dallas Green!"

just got home from work. How’s my boy Jose Castillo doing??
Brian Sabean's new dad: Firm believer in corporal punishment
I must admit, they certainly come up with new and creative ways to screw up scoring opportunities. It’s almost an art form.
I got distracted and I stopped paying attention to the game.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
Apparently
This fellow was a ballplayer, once.
people hate you, but why do they hate you? because the are jealous!
I really hate to say this, But ...
That’s his problem.
At least, Feliz was good at defense.
Giants the never sunset.
I know I should concede the point, but I really hated watching Feliz at the plate so I’ve blocked out his defense.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch
whoops. i’d take castillo over feliz because of the compensation we got and the price tag. all things equal of course you’d take feliz because he hits and fields better. castillo sucks. but he’s better than mcclain, leone and our other shitty alternatives
that money saved has sure made these suckfests more enjoyable.
people hate you, but why do they hate you? because the are jealous!
And what did they spend the money on? Oh yeah – it’s being used to pay Zito.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch
yeah but if we get a good player at #37 in the draft it will have been worth it. not like we wouldn’t be 15-22 if we had feliz instead of castillo. why pay millions of dollars for a marginal upgrade?
Leone's line
(prior to today): 229 .348 .492 .840 (2-5 and a BB today)
Castillo after the 4-4, before the 3 DPs:
.252 .307 .425 .732 (0-3, 3 DP today)
Castillo hits doubles.

Hey, guys, I heard somewhere that Juan Marichal is on Baseball Tonight and Berman is wearing his Giants cap.
Back from the ballpark, and...
...I have to ask:
At one point, maybe mid-way through the game, a camera guy filmed an elderly woman sitting about fifteen feet away from us. She was wearing a homemade shirt that read, “NANA LOVES RANDY WYNN”
Did she actually make it on tv? And was it as funny as it was in person?
PS: Happily, I was in the center field bleachers, which gave me the opportunity to yell at Dicktorino about running into shortstops AND to suggest his mother might also be his sister. Good times!
Sister-moms are always funny.

Go Holm!
Was at the game yesterday – first game we’ve managed to get to since 2006 (we’ve been flat broke and for a family of 4 a day at AT&T is pricey!!!).
Great to see Omar back and jumping around like a teenager again.
Holm’s homer surprised me – thought it was at most a double off the bat, but it just kept going!
Bases loaded, no outs – for the Giants it’s a result if we score at all!
My wife and boys did the running the bases thing after the game, which was fun and then on the way to the car we spotted Dave Flemming signing autographs in his BMW Convertible. I congratulated him for picking Brian Wilson in the wrap. Then Omar drove past giving everyone the Devils Horns salute and still jumping round like a teenager! Impressive!
Which I could get there more often – it’s a great day out!
I used to be disgusted, but now I try to be amused!
Flem Signing Autographs...
That’s cute.
