San Francisco Giants @ Chicago Cubs

2008 - Kevin Correia 1-5 10 9 0 0 0 0 49.0 51 27 27 7 22 31 4.96 1.49

 

Technically, Rich Harden doesn't have any stats for his new league, so he comes in to the game 0-0 with a -.-- ERA. As such, he is widgetless.

I've always said that if the opposing pitcher comes into the game with dashes or numbers in his ERA, the Giants are in trouble. If the Giants could face a pitcher with an ERA made of Wingdings, we'd be in business. The Giants would absolutely torch a guy with an ERA of  .

After much brooding, I benched Harden on my fantasy team. His velocity is down and his shoulder hurts. If the Giants rock him today, it won’t be as much of a thrill as if he was healthy.

Then again, if they don’t and he is hurt, how depressing.

I guess I’m hoping for a throwing error or, by some miracle, a walk. So far, the chances of seeing either are not good.

by rightcenterfielder on Jul 12, 2008 10:11 AM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

bogus

what a terrible lineup. i know that winn is hurt, but if he can’t play and velez “has” to, why not leave bowk at 1st and leave flew in the lineup? this confuses me.

why is Rowand batting behind Molina?

by kennv on Jul 12, 2008 10:29 AM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

because bochy is an idiot

by Viliphied on Jul 12, 2008 10:29 AM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

slightly more complete explanation

because in ST, Bochy decided that Bengie would bat cleanup, and once he makes a decision apparently he never changes his mind.

Viz is the worst hitter

that MLB has seen in many many years, right?

Actually, I have no recollection of a full-time player ever sucking this bad. The fact that Bochy keeps putting him out there may be the most frustrating thing I can ever remember a manager doing.

Just for that one simple fact someone should be fired. Whether it be Bochy for doing it, or someone else for demanding he do it. It is plain stupid.

well, he probably figures that Vizquel, being a professional, will break out of it…

that since Viz hit like .200 in the winter league, he probably won’t.

Is there a good stats site
