Well, I’m happy he got to 20 HR if it was important to him.

I think he means the fans, who only indirectly paid him $16M.

Also

Anyone want to bet Bengie has a Posey voodoo doll at his house that he keeps poking with needles?

Pretty gracious statements about Posey. not sure I totally believe it, but I’ll choose to believe he’s saying that in good faith.

Not a fan of the comments unanimously saying they want Bengie back next year. I know it’s the gracious thing to say, especially if he reads the comments (unlikely, but possible). But I’m highly tempted to go in there with:

“Thanks for being a good catcher, a decent hitter and a clubhouse leader. You’ve been a great Giant and you’ve done everything that could be reasonably asked of you. It’s not your fault that Bruce Bochy is unreasonable and thinks you’re a cleanup hitter rather than an excellent choice to bat 6th or 7th. I wish you the best of luck in the American League next year.”

"he walked 18; new league record! Struck out 18, another new league record! He also hit the sportswriter, the PA announcer, the bull mascot twice..."

Gah. I think it’s unbecoming for a professional ball player to be so publicly butt-hurt. I understand that he has these feelings, but I don’t think sharing them like that helps.

It isn't simply about you vs. Buster, Bengie...

Bengie’s value for us compared to the B-money he’s going to get on the open market just doesn’t balance out. There’s too many hackers under contract already, and we have a decent defensive catcher (Gerber’s popular Strained Salt n Peppa) to couple with Buster. With Timmeh-Cainer-Pablando, our leadership is changing.

Gotta play with the $$$ we got, and firstly, that needs to solve:
1) patient sluggin’ out of our LF
2) improved defense/speed/OBP up the middle
3) general pitching staff depth maintenance
