Posey-Game Recap: Giants Win Fifth Straight
by Grant on Oct 2, 2009 9:46 PM PDT
414 comments
Before tonight, I'd seen Buster Posey catch a few games -- an FSU game on TV, two in San Jose, and two San Jose televised games. And I'm ashamed to say that I didn't really notice him defensively until he tried to throw out a runner. I guess I'm a pitchercentric fellow. But when the great Posey freezeout of Aught-Nine started to get nasty, a small part of me wondered if I was more than a little ignorant about Posey's catching skills. Maybe he was really that raw. Maybe Posey behind the plate was the equivalent of Todd Hundley in left field.
No. I was right. The "Posey doesn't know how to call games/frame pitches/chew with his mouth closed"-crowd was wrong. You can't see it, but I'm making obscene gestures at them right now. There's no way the Giants need to allocate 5% of a tight payroll to Bengie Molina to act as an organizational woobie. Posey Posey Posey.
Also, Posey.

I really like the way he catches. And he’ll only get better after a month and a half spent getting to know the pitchers better. There’s no way they can use $6 million of the payroll on Bengie.

let Rio deal with the traffic, the terrorism and the money. Haven’t the Olympics been money losing propositions lately. I know the one in what? 84? made money – the one that was in LA… but that made money because everything was an officially licensed product of the games. I’m not sure corporations have the dinero to officially license everything at the moment.

I’m pretty sure the other reason they were able to make money/at least break even was that they didn’t have to construct a mega-stadiums like the Bird’s nest. They used existing structures—the LA Coliseum, Pauley Pavilion, Dodgers Stadium, etc.

It had the prime accolade of pleasing Mrs. Exile and was kind of a friendlier , nicer, quirkier version of Disney meets an old Philip Dick ( Yes, I know he never lived long enough to get that old). Nothing to go far out of the way for but at least for one season they were able to make it work. Too bad they did not get a second chance.

A lost Win.
Great for SF, 5 in a row with 2 left. Might as well go for all 7. Tonight was yet another win in the back pocket of Barry Zito that somehow eluded him. It’s almost become 2nd nature for the poor guy. He pitched a real fine game right up to the nasty line drive but once again was given 1 run to work with and once he was removed there they came in bunches with the reliever’s 2/3rds of an inning picking up the win. I’ve seen hard luck stories and this one’s no different. Looking at his game log I see as many as 8 games that could have and should have been victories but weren’t. He lowered his ERA more than an entire run over last year and had his lowest ERA in a Giants uniform which is a step in the right direction even if the W’s don’t give the reflection his work deserves. They were 18-15 in the games he started and that’s just about what K.C. is in Zack Greinke’s starts with half the ERA.. He did a respectable job, period. Hard hits were losses anyway and inflated the ERA. Without them it’s around 3.30 and that’s good pitching, maybe not CY Young award caliber, but more than adequate enough for a better than even record. It was a pleasure watching him and his 2nd half had some very impressive pitching in the mix.

So he’s either contradicting himself(he said Bengie would start at LEAST one in SD), or something else is forcing him to not play Bengie.
But if Whiteside plays, it’s a moot point anyway.

Per Melonhead, Bengie’s hand is sore again after catching yesterday. So he’s available to pinch-hit but not start.
I hope Buster starts both games. He hasn’t caught either Cain or Sanchez yet.

Expect Bowker, who entered Friday batting .190 in 29 games, to remain in the lineup through the rest of the season.

basically, they’ve given up on Freddie and Nate and now want to see if they should give up on Bowker too. It’s amazing that Andres Torres and Eugenio Velez have (in Bochy and Sabean’s opinion) emerged from this group as the guys who are considered their future outfield. I wonder how long it’s going to be next season before they realize they’ve made a mistake.

I know it’s wrong, existentially speaking, but after this season my searing hatred is for the Rockies.

I’m with you. I don’t have that burning Dodger hate because I don’t live in California. I hate them because they’re our rivals, but no more than any of our other rivals in the NL West. If the Dodgers beat us out for a playoff spot, I can always dismiss it by saying they’re a big market team and they outspent us. There’s no excuse for the Rockies to beat us out for the wild card. All the people that thought we were bad this season STILL thought we were better than the Rockies.

Patience.
The Infidels will make the gutters run red with each other’s blood yet.
I will say this. If the Rockies do pull this off I will no longer be view them as a AAA franchise with just 4 really hot months ( 2 years ago). They will have finally raised up and laid some hurt on a division front runner not named the Giants instead of rolling over and peeing on their stomach. I would welcome such unlikely event as gaining a full fledge division rival to make the NL West something more than Giants vs Bums and 1 of the other 3 teams nipping at our ankles in a given year.

I don’t really know why you’d think that, tbh (that they’re a AAA franchise.) They’re doing exactly what we all want the Giants to do (winning with an almost entirely homegrown team.) They give their young, homegrown players fair chances to produce in the majors and, golly, look what happens when they do.

There is a chance the Rockies could have the best record in the NL if they win out, meaning they get home field throughout the NL playoffs.

we took the season series from them, yet they have a better record than us. That’s because they really beat up on the bad teams, while we always let them off the hook. It doesn’t matter how bad the team you’re playing is, you’re going to lose when you can’t score a single run.

I don’t think the payroll situation is going to be “dire.” Neukom says he doesn’t mind increasing payroll. Molina, Winn, Roberts and Randy Johnson coming off of the payroll will save a lot. I know there will be arb increases, but that still won’t equal the savings. Combine that with the payroll going up and I think there is some flexibility there.

That frightens me more. I doubt Sabean will focus on getting 2 of 3 or 4 specific targets that are clearly large upgrades in the 2 of the next 3 seasons over what is already in system. I really think he will be inclined to repeat his 2003-2005 moves. Sabean hears more money and thinks, " Oh Boy a bigger box of Assorted Scrub Veteran position players!!!"

I agree. You know, that old saw about a leopard being unable to change his spots.
I have a friend who reminds me of Sabean. This friend has a garage full of assorted “bargains” that he’s picked up at garage sales. In his mind the stuff is really great, but in reality it’s just trash.
Sabean will never be able to judge the difference between treasure and trash accurately, hence, while he remains in control the Giants will be NEVER win a championship.

I think what Neukom actually said was something like “The payroll on the field is going to go up.” Well, you could take this year’s payroll and keep it exactly the same, only the money which was being paid to Dave Roberts would instead go to a player who’s actually on the roster. This doesn’t necessarily mean, then, that they’re going to exceed this season’s payroll.

Weren’t they still paying Lowry and Benitez as well?

So maybe Nate, Lewis, & Bowker need to “baby” sit Big Heads favorite hunting dog at an undisclosed location when they are not playing 6 or more innings a game?

There was a shot of him last night in the dugout, during the game where he was facing away from the field and just talking and talking and talking. The guys that were around him kind of had this look on their face like “Does this guy EVER shut up?!?!”

I got to see a real Panda, up close, last summer in Xi’an.
Apparently they can actually digest apples much easier than bamboo, even though apples are not native to anywher they live.
Please hit better, Randy Winn.

Their stomachs weren’t really made to digest bamboo in the first place.
I know you nerds know NOTHING about the real game of baseball, or any other athletic endeavor requiring teamwork under physical stress.

Buster Posey isn't that good yet
He will be someday. But you guys are overvalueing him.
Meanwhile, as I have said many times, the Giants will win the World Series if their offense consisted of more than a fat panda.

Over-value
The reason people on this site like him so much is because he knows how to walk. No one else on the team besides Lewis and Winn does. He hasn’t been able to get many hits yet, but he’s how many at-bats into his career?

His competitors are not "that good" either. Not now nor in the past were they "that good". So what exactly is the risk of lose? Less time us Giants fans spend in the Suck Bin?

Saw part of the game. Why in the world did FOX use Darin Sutton as the play by play voice?? Bert Blyleven (side note: should be in the Hall of Fame) was OK but Sutton is AWFUL.

I don’t mind it. If NBC wants to broadcast bad games, then fine, they paid for the rights to it, and only for ND. ESPN is supposed to be all-inclusive.
I still don’t like the idea of one network owning all of a school’s games, but not quite comparable, to me.
Insanity is just a state of mind.

Yeah I really can't stand weiss
they were lucky to win that game. Washington had 7 chances from inside the 5 and came away with 3 points, they took the ball out of Locker’s hands, the idiots.
BTW, look out for Jake Locker in a niner uniform.
