Maybe all our players are DEAD. I’m frightened.

It’s a Correia start, he’s probably still looking for his enthusiasm.

Maybe he feels ashamed that his last post was about whether or not Aaron Rowand will win another gold glove. Ha!

He may have a chance if it’s just a golden GLOVE … he’s got none chance at a “golden arm”

by Merope on Sep 5, 2008 6:22 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Arm issues aside, I don’t think he’s all that great defensively. That’s based on observation, mind you, not numbers, because defensive stats are so far over my head they might as well be on Pluto.

lineup, minus funky capitalization

1) Randy Winn LF
2) Nate Schierholtz RF
3) Rich Aurilia 3B
4) Bengie Molina C
5) Pablo Sandoval 1B
6) Aaron Rowand CF
7) Emmanuel Burriss SS
8) Eugenio Velez 2B
9) Kevin Correia P

That’s right, kids, Rich Aurilia is our #3 hitter!!!!

We would’ve made a good #3 hitter in 2001, so naturally, it follows that he would still be, right?

Chinese Pizza. Yeah.

For those of you not in the know, most of the population does not eat cheese. A goodly portion regard cheese with same horror that westerners have at snake meat or ox penis.
Strike 1.

I’m not certain that the Chinese word for ketchup is the same as the word for tomato sauce, but if there is a separate, word that just means “tomato sauce” I never discovered it .
Strike 2

Ovens are trendy for nouveau rich, but most chefs in China probably go their whole careers without making bread (or crust) in an oven .
Strike 3.

Once you get over all that, and learn to enjoy surprises like the fact, no, “fruit pizza” is not a typo, Chinese pizza is okay in its own eccentric way.

Serious question...

Can the Giants trade Rowand? I mean, let’s pretend some team wanted him, and Rowand was willing to waive whatever no-trade clause he might have in his contract.

Rowand is a pretty typical Sabean signing—wrong kind of player for the Giants. Rowand would be a great addition to a team with plenty of good hitting, and just lacking a little gamerish, good-d, pretty good hitting.

I’d rather have Winn in CF next season and batting leadoff. Let Schierholtz and Bowker battle it out for the rights to RF.

Drip, drip, drip.

“How many saw her speech a couple of nights ago? Wasn’t it fabulous?” McCain said Friday during a campaign stop in Cedarburg, Wisconsin. “You know what I enjoyed the most? She took the luxury jet that was purchased by her predecessor and sold it on eBay — and made a profit.”

But it turns out the twin-engine Westwind II was a tough sell on the Web — and the state eventually pulled it offline and sold it through an ordinary brick-and-mortar brokerage, for a loss, a spokeswoman said Friday.
