Honest question: If Scott McClain was the 3B all season for the 2008 Giants, how many more games would this team have won? Any? 5? 10?

There is a reason

McClain is a AAAAAAA player.

And it’s not because he is a good ML player.

Well, timing had something to do with it. During his prime years coming up, I believe he was stuck behind Ripken and Boggs in BAL and TB

He certainly doesn’t figure into the future of the franchise, but how big an upgrade could he have been?

I’m not sure he’s actually even that good. An ERA of 5.48 has to be below replacement level. In addition, he has about the same number of walks as strikeouts and a WHIP around 1.65.

I'm just saying it

because about 1/2 the time he pitches, he gives us a really good chance to win. It’s actually probably closer to 60%. He’s just awful in the other starts so it’s over quickly.

On a team that had a more potent offense, I think he would easily win 10 games.

I think there was a study that showed that the more catchers worked with the same pitchers, the better those pitchers did. So, while catcher ERA is bunk (if I’m remembering correctly) there is a correlation with experience between a catcher and pitcher.

Given Tobey Maguire was Spiderman, wouldn’t that just make him….never mind, too easy.

I missed that somehow. I saw quite a few previews, but never noticed him in any of them.

You didn’t see the Satan’s Alley “trailer”? It was shown right before the movie.

Quick question

why is McClain getting a HR such a big deal? I mean, it’s awesome, but I’m assuming there’s some sort of backstory I’m missing.

363 minor lg HRs

by lincypoo i wuv u on Sep 3, 2008 2:22 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

He's been in the minor leagues for about 3 decades

And has, IIRC, the current minor league record for career HR’s

….and had never hit one in the Majors.

ahhh i see

gracias, sir

good on him, then. That’s great that he did it, like, right away. Why wasn’t he playing sooner if he’s got any sort of power??? Bad fielder?

by bondslegend on Sep 3, 2008 2:23 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

because he probably has a huge hole in his swing

That yeilds him completely ineffective to ML pitching.

Rotoworld FTS(nark)
It doesn’t make much sense for the Giants to be giving McClain starts, but it is nice to see the veteran finally get his first major league homer. He had 291 of them in the minors, plus 71 more in Japan.

Maybe because they wanted to give him a chance to hit that first ML homer?

Dear Rotoworld,

The Giants organization is not full of people who are dicks like you. This might be confusing. I know. It’s okay. Just calm down and go talk about Jed Lowrie or something.

Love,
groug

Ooooh, Jed Lowrie is awesome. He’s like Dustin Pedroia, but at SS.

Really? Because Lowrie’s season looks pretty similar to Pedroia’s season last year. Lowrie strikes out more, but he also walks more and has a bit more power.
