Dear Giants,
Pablo Sandoval led your team in walks this season. Please ponder the significance of that tidbit throughout this offseason.
Sincerely,
McCovey Chronicles

This is a good thing! The Giants cheat the game less than any other team in the bigs.

/ front office desk jockey sends email directing Dunston to immediately go to Sandoval’s house and re-indoctrinate him on the evils of "cheating the game".

Ryan Klesko from 2007 would be third on the team in walks with 46. Winn is in second with 47.
I know you nerds know NOTHING about the real game of baseball, or any other athletic endeavor requiring teamwork under physical stress.

Goddamn can I not stand Shawon Dunston, Brian Sabean and all those responsible for the club’s current culture of walklessness. I’m looking at you, Bengie Molina. I’M LOOKING AT YOU!
Joe Martinez: You are cool.

He is pretty.
Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.

Dear Grant,
I had never thought about it that way. Holy god that is depressing.

This is horrifying but it is impressive that Pablo outwalked even his most optimistic projection (BB-wise) by 28!

I’m kinda amazed that he’s got a league average BB%.

It’ll be interesting to see if this is his ceiling walks-wise or if he can continue to become even more patient next season. He definitely made a ton of strides this year.

It’s not that surprising considering he’s the only offensive threat in the lineup.
Utter frustration and futility.

I have been thinking that signing Nick Johnson wouldnt be a bad idea. If they can get a power bat to hit behind him and pablo, maybe, I might also be a horrible rosterbater.
