Open Gameday Thread, 6/8

PrintSan Francisco Giants at Washington Nationals, Jun 8, 2008 10:35 AM PDT
In case you weren't in the second-day draft thread, the Giants used their 13th-round pick on Juan Carlos Perez, an outfielder from Western Oklahoma State College. It's a Division II school, so he was putting his numbers up against Otero, Seminole, and Carl Albert State College, but, man, what numbers:
BA AB H HR SLG BB OBP SB
.465 215 100 37 1.102 26 .530 29
Now, obviously, those stats aren't going to just translate right over, so I propose the following progression:
Short-season A: .450/.520/1.005
Low-A: .425/.505/.975
High-A: .410/.495/.900
AA: .395/.470/.870
AAA: .375/.455/.825
Rookie season in the majors: .355/.440/.765
I don't see how that is unrealistic in any way.

27-35.... But 20-6 when Timmy/Dirty pitch. 7-29 otherwise. Yikes! But yay!
Gerald Posey got a hit and scored on a home run in the Fla State-Wichita State super regional this morning. Jack Rye hit the homer. We drafted Rye last year, 24th round I wanna say.

Literally RIGHT as that was happening,
the PBP guy was saying “did Zito’s performance before his contract really warrent 18 mil/ year?”. Prescient.

Teams are a combined 5 for 9 thus far. That’s some quality pitching right there, considering they’re two of the lowest scoring teams in the game.
Who is the father?

Man, I really suck at getting the rotation right. I thought Cain was pitching today and I thought Misch was pitching yesterday. I clearly need to stop going away from the internet for any period of time.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
Good thing Zito is pitching right? Makes up for missing Cain.

Anyone watch Croatia vs Austria?

DC announcers bringing it to SF front office
saying Zito was 55-?? the 4 yrs prior to him beginning to steal SF monies
thanks. they are questioning the signing and wondering how his agents could pull the wool over some stupid team’s eyes

Not that I would ever defend the Zito contract
but the Nationals aren’t exactly exemplars of intelligent team building either. Exhibit A: Cristian Guzman, leadoff hitter.
zito is showing more patience than most of our hitters

we tried various rally explorers during the game last night
as soon as Battuta was posted, the Giants offense exploded.
Correlation always means causation, right??

because he hasn't yet given up an insurmountable lead
"You're all worthless and weak, now drop and give me twenty!"
damn
I really didn’t want a guy on first. DP, I don not have a good feeling. why, why, WHY did zito hit for himself?
Ihope he knows that even a fly ball will get a run
JUST DONT GET IT ONE THE FLIPPIN GROUND
