He looked good, but the bullpen, where is that picture?
Jesse English: He is BAAAAAACCCCCKKKK!

Yeah, I see they blew up the game
3 HR in the last two IP. Nice.
10 Ks for timmy, 105 pitches in 6 IP. Not great, not horrible.

Tim was fine, a few rough innings.
Chulk and Walker on the other hand…

I don’t care if Carlos Lee is batting behind Berkman, Berkman is totally on fire right now and I’d prefer to pitch to Lee. I don’t understand why Bochy doesn’t instruct his pitchers to pitch around Berkman.

An aside:
Anyone else remember, during Letterman’s old “Viewer Mail” segment when he’d get a brief letter with a couple names on it, and he’d remark, “It took TWO people to write this letter”? That bit came to mind when I looked at the Giants pitching line today and thought, “It took FIVE pitchers to give up eight runs.”

i don't know...
that 4-run eighth was some of shittiest the Astros had to offer, and the Giants couldn’t get through them.
Wild pitch put Geoff Blum on, single to Mark Loretta (.235 BA), Darin Erstad homer, Brad Ausmus walks, Kaz Matsui single…
yikes. i don’t think this is the true giants bullpen, but i definitely think they get to shoulder today’s blame.

There are four teams with worse records than ours. How is that even possible?

2 of them are the Rockies and Padres
Each of them should finish ahead of us. The Senators might be a stretch to catch…but our team really does suck, so…live the dream.
120 games to go. I full believe we can lose 75-80 or those games. That should give us a good shot.

One might see this loss as convincing B.S. that we’re a long ways from actually BEATING some of the top teams. (none of this “we hung tight with the Phillies and Astros…bullshit, a lot of games that should’ve been won were flat out lost)
On the other, god help us if he still thinks we’re in contention…as now he’s probably working the phones for a “cagey veteran reliever”..which he clearly has so much success in finding.
