San Francisco Giants @ Colorado Rockies


Ah, there's nothing like Coors Field after getting swept. Is that optimism? *sniff sniff* Hope? *sniff sniff* Aqua Velva? *sniff sniff* Napalm in the morning?

Hooray youth movement!!

Scott McClain is here!! In case you missed it, McClain, Hennessey and Holm called up. GRod DFA’d, to add McClain to the 40 man. Fresno has another game left and since the Rockies are using a lefty, Bowker and Nate stay down another day.

I have no problem with McClain either, if he just pinch hits and gets an occasional start, but Bochy will somehow do something that gets on my nerves. McClain is here and so is Roelinger, and there’s Rich Aurilia getting yet another start today.

Left Handed Pitcher Geno Espeneli
Left Handed Pitcher Steve Hammond

To make room on the 40 man the San Francisco Giants designated for assignment Catcher Guillermo Rodriguez and Catcher Eliezer Alfonso.

I think Dibble’s getting ahead of himself – everyone else says they’ve called up Holm, McClain, and Hennessey, and that Schierholtz and Bowker will be called up tomorrow.

Random, but

Anyone else have Comcast for their Internet connection? If so, have you been having problems with your connection lately? My connection seems to be grinding to a halt for half an hour or so regularly right in the middle of the day lately – which is kind of a huge problem for me as I work from home. Wondering if it’s just me or if they suck for everyone at the moment. Grumble, grumble.

We used to have Comcast, we got rid of it. Our connection would go out everytime it rained! The service dude said that the rain / moisture had nothing to do with it, there was nothing wrong with the line and charge us $50 for the “house call.” Next time it rained…it’d go out again.
After that happened 4x we got rid of comcast!

We're lucky

Ian Stewart and his 1.500 OPS vs lefties isn’t in the starting line up. I guess the Rox manager drank some of Bochy’s juice and assumes lefties can’t hit lefties.

Our hitters are participating in Operation Strasburg. What is the pitching staff’s problem?

The bullpen’s fully on board. I guess the starters are worried about losing their jobs.

I guess it’s mostly Lincecum who is not helping. He really is a clubhouse cancer.

Me neither, with my luck we’d be better off if I adopted a dodger.
Anybody I adopted would prolly get hit by a cement mixer then very next day.

I thought Sweeny’s adopter got him. But then I don’t keep good track of such things.
Maybe I should Adopt Ochoa. But then what’s the fun in doing the right thing?
