Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Bengie's Blog

I don't know how many of you have read this, but just wanted to post it to make sure -

http://bengiemolina.mlblogs.com/archives/2008/07/looking_forward_to_the_second.html

Molina wrote an article about 4 days ago about his expectations for the Giants for the second half of the season.  Here are a couple blurbs from it -

On Zito - "I know some of you have lost confidence in Zito, but I have to tell you that what I've been seeing the last few weeks has been great. Don't look at the numbers. Just look at how he's pitching. He's been giving us a chance to win every time. He's a true professional and he's going to be fine."

On Their Development as a Team - "We have a lot of young players in the big leagues for the first time. They've gained a lot of experience these past few months and should have their feet wet now ... We are a tight team. We've developed trust in each other. That's how you become a team. You trust each other. If one guy is down, he taps the guy next to him to pick him up. Then it's OK, let's go. Not one guy has to be the hero. If one person tries to do it all himself, you're not going to win."

Check it out.  It's encouraging to hear his attitude about things, especially since he's the guy all our pitchers are relying on.

I agree--Bengie is the man!

Zito’s been coming around, and Matt Cain pitched a gem today against Washington. Too bad Noah Lowry’s probably going to be out for awhile.

This is amazing.

Farewell, Ray. We'll miss your smile and your sugar. Welcome, Steve Hammond "Eggs". Throw strikes.
