So Romo is throwing 93 mph? I thought he was supposed to be a soft-tosser.

So, not long ago, I was wondering what we could do about first base via trade or free agency for 2009. But the last few weeks, I’m believing more and more that Bowker may be the answer. Thoughts?

He could still stand to walk a little more.

Agreed. He’s not nearly as much of a hacker as some on the roster, though.

If he walks a little more, he becomes a cheap young Raul Ibanez, which would be fantastic

That was actually a pretty okay game. I wish it had ended differently but I was expecting them to completely shrivel up and die after going down 3-0, so the comeback was a pleasant surprise. And I thought our fans did a nice job of drowning out the Cubs fans for most of the game.

So I was in the car listening to the midnight replay. Ray Durham just hit a 3 run homerun to tie the game, and then I got home. I assume that the game just ended there and that the Giants were awarded the win for gamerism. I can’t see how anything else could have possibly taken place.
