Whoa. What in the heck happened with Jeff Francis? Zito for Francis, Rockie front office types. We'll even throw in, like, $10M.
Also of note: There's a scheduled downtime for the entire network at 11:00 p.m., so these game threads have a deadline. Tick tock. Tick tock.

Bochy-rific benching of Ishikawa versus the lefty, but Lewis bats #2 and Ochoa drops down to 37. Interesting.

In Bochy's defense..
Lewis has brought his OBP vs lefties up to .330 when it was an abysmal 240ish a little over a month ago if I recall. But I don’t think we are playing a lefty for the rest of the week (According to ESPN’s Fantasy Forcast) so Ishi should play the next 5 games.
proud father of the newly acquired Brandon Crawford..
probly not the right place for this comment
but do you think we could win if we had this lineup and a rotation of CC/Timmy/Matt/Sanchez/Zito? If Lincecum can be 15-3 with this kind of offense, I can’t see why not.
Damn, is it really a Matt Cain start? Fuck, and I was looking forward to this game. :\
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
Matt Cain sucks so much that during the offseason, he makes money by renting himself out as a vacuum cleaner.

Do
you guys think that if we had a rotation comprised soley of Matt “Suxorz” Cain we could lose all 162 games?
I'm young but i didn't fall off the truck yesterday!
It’s ok cause we have Barry “fuckin’ AWESOME” Zito to achor our rotation so thankfully we only have to see Matty like every 5 days!

I was just wondering cause I was into Naruto for a while but I stopped reading for a while and now I am to lazy to catch up. I was looking for a newer anime that didnt have to much out so i could read and catch up easy. any suggestions?
I'm young but i didn't fall off the truck yesterday!
I guess you’re referring to manga. If you like Naruto, you’ll probably like One Piece. I actually like it more than Naruto. I find the characters more interesting and the stories more fun. It’s about a crew of pirates and has a nice mix of comedy and action. Another shonen (manga targeted toward boys) that I like is Fairy Tail. It has only been recently released in the US, so there isn’t much from it out yet. Death Note is also quite good. That’s complete so you won’t have to worry about falling behind on it. There are only 12 volumes of it.
Did they make a live action movie for Death Note?

1 jar apricot spreadable fruit, 2 Tbsp dijon, 2 Tbsp white vinegar, 2 cloves garlic (minced), a couple sprigs of rosemary (chopped). combine everything in a saucepan and heat through. then put your chicken on the grill over indirect heat. glaze for last 10-15 minutes. so simple, so tasty.

Molina's clock is ticking?
He’s awfully good at that throwin stuff
I prefer Cab as well, but we decided to go with the Merlot tonight. Pretty good so far.

Cab is my first choice. I’ll also happily enjoy zinfandel, pinot noir and chianti. Doesn’t matter what I’m eating.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch
I’ll honestly drink pretty much any kind of wine (as long as it’s good!), though I much prefer red to white.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
I’ll drink white if that’s the only choice, but it’s mostly just okay to me. Although I do enjoy a good reisling or gewurztraminer when appropriate.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch
