Trio o' tidbits

  • There’s a Buster Posey scouting report over at Baseball Intellect. Buster Posey? But she didn’t do anything to me! Or something.

    Also on the mechanics tip, SB Nation has just added Driveline Mechanics to the roster, which is a nice coup. The statistical side of baseball has always had plenty of representation on the internet, so it’s awesome to see that the next wave is focused on the biomechanics of baseball, which is almost the final frontier for baseball nerds. Sure, you can prattle on about VORP and Win Shares to the guy sitting next you, but I promise he’s ignoring you. Really, he is. But once you start talking about reverse rotations and rushed arm action, that’s when you’ll move from stuffy gobbledygook-jabbering nerd to arrogant knowledge-vomiting expert. I, for one, can’t wait.
  • If Bengie Molina can bring back any sort of prospect in a trade, he should be gone before March. That doesn’t mean he isn’t one of the coolest players on the roster. Check out how he has responded to Pablo Sandoval. Can you imagine having your boss say, "By the way, you aren’t really in our long-term plans. Oh, and we’re bringing in Paul from the East Coast to see if we want to keep him instead of you. Could you show him around? If he does well right off the bat, you’ll probably be transferred to the Miami office in a couple of months, but try not to think about that. Thanks." Seven-figure salaries or no, that’s a tough spot to be put in, so raise a flagon of ale to Bengie the next time you get a chance.
  • Madison Bumgarner is the best pitching prospect in the minors. Shove the "no breaking ball"-complaint up your scouthole, haters. Another 10 strikeout, no walk game puts his K/BB ratio at 155/20 over 136 innings. MiLB.com details the performance here, and Baseball America has another edition of the Madison Bumgarner Report up on their site. Here’s enough ridiculous to get you through the weekend:

I like tid bit days

Yesterday, in my boredom, I was looking back at some old Waiting for Boof posts and one of the “Random Thoughts” posts really made me laugh.

From 2/19/03:

1) Joe Nathan: Uninspired Bullpen Candidate. I wouldn’t put Nathan on the team if it were a competition between him and Jeff Juden. Nathan is the owner of a 5.46 ERA in 556 innings above A-ball. I don’t care if he’s touching 92 again, he needs to have, at the very least, one decent season in the high minors before he is considered for a bullpen job in the majors. If he came up today, he’d be slotted right behind Greg Bruso on the organizational depth charts.
He’s out of options, but would pass through waivers like a kidney stone shaped like Jason Kidd. Maybe he’s a feel-good story waiting to happen, but he’s much too risky for a team in contention.

3) F.P. Santangelo, the type of player who could pull a .375 on-base percentage while hitting .160, is the new hitting coach for the San Jose Giants. I hope he’s still around when Freddie Lewis makes his way through the system. If there’s one thing the organization is lacking, it’s someone pounding the idea of plate discipline into the heads of the kids. What would Lance Niekro look like if he had Santangelo as a coach coming up?

…I wish we had Nathan in the bullpen now and seriously FP as a batting coach? At least we wouldn’t have to listen to him speak.

Giants! Giants! HELP US GOD!

I always liked Joe Nathan, even when it was irrational to do so, myself.

In my defense, I’ve already poked fun at this post several times, even after it was long forgotten.

That chart just screams "good Giants pitcher"

“So, you wanna win games for this club, kid? Simple. We only allow you one earned run per game. That’s IT. That’s all you get. And even then, you still might not win, so we hope yer up for it. You wanna so much as think of winning games when you give up three earnies? FERGET IT. Tain’t gonna happen. One earned run is all you get. Here’s the ball. Go get ’em, kid!”

Just read that article on Benjie and agree that he’s got to be the coolest Giant.

I wonder if Omar is mentoring Ivan or Manny? I remember an article about Ochoa where he said he watches Omar take grounders a lot, but he didn’t say anything about Omar actually making an effort to help him.

They mentioned something about it on the wrap a few nights back, how Pablo and Bengie have a strong relationship. Bengie is class all the way.

There a few decent ones:

ANALLY UPSET (also SET UP ANALLY or PET US ANALLY)
TAP ANUS, YELL

and this one got a 100% rating from the anagrammer, which almost never happens:

One more thing...

I’m pretty convinced that our frustration with Bochy playing the old guys was purely to showcase them.

Since the trade deadline, it seems like he’s made an effort to get the kids in quite a bit. Other than an occasional Omar and Richie sighting …or Roberts letting Lewis rest his foot, it’s been about the “youts”.

Lincecum time again.

You know he will ALways win!

You know it’s the only thing
That keeps us together!
