Sour Grapes and the Giants

PrintAfter putting my daughter to bed last night, I sat on the couch and watched the Dodgers/Cardinals game. I had a glass of Bulleit Bourbon on one side and a gigantic cat on the other. I sipped the bourbon. I watched some baseball. I skritched the cat.
The Giants not making the playoffs is a bad thing, but there are some benefits. In an alternate reality, the Giants did squeak into the playoffs. I had a chance to interview Alternate Reality Grant for just a bit:
Me: So, how are things?Alternate Reality Me: Oh, just fine.
Me: Just fine?
ARM: A-OK.
Me: You aren't unbelievably nervous or stressed out?
ARM: Nope. I'm cool.
Me: So I'll assume that the huge wet spot on the front of your jeans isn't urine, and that you're not incontinent.
ARM: Nah. That's not urine.
Me: Good.
ARM: I think it's bile. I think I'm urinating bile. It stings. I'm cold. Is it game time? I'm cold. I just want to wrap myself in red-white-and-blue bunting and go to sleep. Will you stay with me? Oh, god, another wave is coming. I need to ride the wave. Here's a spoon. Make sure I don't swallow my tongue. Here comes the wave. Ride the wave. I'm cold.
Really, I'm a lot of fun when the Giants make the playoffs. But there's something to, you know, being able to relax.
This period of relaxation allows me to calmly discuss who would be the 2009 playoff goat in that alternate reality. Who would have given us the Candy Maldonado sliding non-catch? Who would have given us the Shawn Estes baserunning magic? Who would have given us the Jose Cruz, Jr. clank of Gold Glove irony? There are a few different directions you could go:
The obvious
Eugenio Velez misjudging a fly ball in the ninth inning. Fred Lewis muffing a fly ball, then stepping on his sunglasses as he tries to pick the ball up. Ryan Garko popping up to shallow left in ten straight appearances with the bases loaded. Bobby Howry allowing walkoff home runs even when the Giants play at home. These kinds of scenarios would be entirely predictable, even if some of the scenarios represent an overblown portion of a player's overall contribution.
The surprise
This is more like the Jose Cruz, Jr. thing. Someone does something well all season, and then stinks up a single play to ruin all of the good that preceded it. Tim Lincecum walking seven in three innings. Pablo Sandoval hitting into a double play every time he comes up with runners on base. An error by Travis Ishikawa after he comes into the game as a defensive replacement.
The Barry Zito
Somehow, the stars align to get Zito the start of the fifth game of the Divisional Series. He pitches like the Zito of old. Not old-old, like when he won the Cy Young, but new-old, like when he started with the Giants. Certainly not new-new, which is more like old-new, and we're all fine with that Zito. I forget where this is going, but no matter how well Zito pitches for the Giants in a given year, if he gets knocked around in a crucial playoff start, all we'd hear that offseason is "$126 million! $126 million!"
The ultimate humiliation
Scrapping through the Divisional Series and the NLCS to get to the World Series...only to get manhandledly swept by the Yankees. That isn't a real word yet, but it would have entered the lexicon after a four-game romp that would have made 1989 look like a collection of nail-biters. There isn't a current adverb that could really get across a 34-2 series run differential. Manhandedly would have done nicely, though.
The ultimate pain
Losing to the Dodgers in the NLCS. On a walk-off home run by Andre Ethier. With Russell Martin on base. Who got there after a blown call at first with two outs in the ninth in Game Seven with the Giants up by one. I mean, use your imagination, folks. This could have been an all-time, give-up-baseball-for-needlepoint kind of season.
So this is an Open Sour Grapes Post. How would the Giants have broken your heart in the 2009 playoffs? Because they wouldn't have won the World Series. Definitely not. There wasn't a chance. And I bet those grapes I can't reach are totally sour. Like, yuck. My cheeks are puckering just thinking about them.

Brian Sabean strongly encourages you to disregard the drudgery of your employment responsibilities and join him in the consumption of spirituous libations.
bottom 9, up one, one out, bases loaded and shallow fly to cf… rowand claims to be aiming for home but throws it over third and it skips into dugout?
Top 9, bases loaded, 2 out, SF 3 LAA 5, the count is 3-2: Scott gets HBP as he he swings at ball four, Joe Buck blandly gurgles “…and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim are World Series champions…zzzzzzzzz…”

Clearly
Since this year they didn’t make the playoffs, this WOULD have been the year of magical freak out wins and a World Series championship in SF. Ztio throwing 8 shutout innings. Rowand Raking. Molina drawing walks and tagging up and scoring on a short fly to center.
Bastards.
OK, not that that last one.

In the first round, whoever we’re facing sends out four soft-throwing rookies with no command to pitch against us (preferably, these guys are usually bullpen arms!), saving their real aces for round two. All of them go 7+ innings of shutout ball, and we just wish that we’d had one game against a greg-maddux-in-his-prime type pitcher so we could have salvaged one win.
Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.

I made a ten dollar bet with a coworker in may that the 49ers would have more wins then the raiders, he is also a dodger fan so I feel no shame in taking his money.
Congrats to my soul mate and birth brother Zach Wheeler on being drafted into greatness. Should I just buy my Wheeler jersey now, or wait till my next birthday?
God
raider fans are idiots. Someone on here actually thought the Raiders were going to be GOOD this year. Not just “not terrible”, but GOOD. Ridiculous. If you get money from their idiocy, more power to you.

Raider fans have no brains, you know this, neither does crabtrees agent… Never said i hated Crabtree, i said i thought he was being immature with the fact he wanted to be paid like a top draft pick when he was selected 10, then i understood it was his agent jerking him around
As I said the entire time...
you never heard HIM say anything. Good thing the team understands that.

already the team is saying he’ll be on the field vs houston. Very encouraging that they want him out there quickly. Hopefully he gets in game shape quickly and can help for the stretch run. Thats what I’ve been hoping for since the holdout started.

Nothing wrong with what he said
the Giants were not on the level of a lot of other teams. Obviously their pitching was better, so they would have had a chance in a 5-game series. But still.

Game 5 against the bums @ AT&T, we’d be up by one in the top of the ninth…Bochy brings Wilson to close the game. Of course Wilson can’t get a 1-2-3 so he walks gets the first batter out with a strikeout, second batter is out on a ground ball to first. Wilson walks the tying run, gives up a homer to Kemp to send us into the bottom of the 9th. Two giants on base 2 outs, Rowand at the plate. Swings at the first pitch, high, swings at the second pitch, low and away, gets caught looking at the third in the strikezone….
tears of immense sadness
please giants...don't make me cry like I did in 02....
Well Timmy...you make me cry tears of joy.
The purpose of this exercise? Let’s see the MCC (most) goes into a depression at the season’s end. Now we are to view an alternate reality where they make the playoffs and shred our heart to bits. Nope. Grant, snap out of it!
Crazy Crab despised in the 20th century and beloved in the 21st century. Hey it only took over 20 years, so don't give up hope.
Giants, in the 5th game of the NLDS, take a 1-1 tie into the 14th, scoring 3 runs in the top of the inning only to have their bullpen blow the 3 run lead by giving up a grand slam.
This scenario sounds eerily familiar…

Giants vs. Playoff teams

vs. Col – 10-8
vs. LAD – 7-11
vs. StL – 4-3
vs. LAA – 0-3
total – 25-28
In the alternate playoff reality, whichever team they face rests its top starters and uses only journeyman 5th starters and unknown rookies/minor league veterans to completely dismantle the the Giants in a 3 game sweep, winning each game 1-0.

somewhere in this alternate playoff reality, I see Bochy handing the game ball to Barry Zito when he takes him out of the game
of course, it’s probably in the 4th inning after he gave up 7 runs, but still, that’s what I see.

Since Grant gave me the Pokemon tangent, here's Zack Greinke's greatest quotes
10. “I could hit me if someone were on base. It wouldn’t be easy, but I could do it. If no one were on base, I wouldn’t care as much, so I could get me out.”
9. Upon hearing then-GM Allard Baird was going to watch him throw: “And you’re gonna be impressed,”
8. “I’d say the average person wouldn’t eat a Chipotle burrito and still do his running, full speed, like me. That’s why they call me special.”
7. “I was giving Brian Bannister all the credit for being the best-hitting pitcher on the team, until today. Now, I’ve got my confidence back. They’re throwing me sliders, and it doesn’t matter.”
6. “For the first month of the season, (Billy Butler) has definitely been an above-average first baseman. That’s hard for me to say because I never thought anyone would say that but him and his family.”
5. Two years ago, with Alex Gordon struggling, Greinke pulled him into the video room to show him a clip of Greinke hitting his home run. “In case you forgot,” Greinke said, “this is what a home run looks like.”
4. “Nice effort by the defense. They didn’t get tired of running after balls to the wall. I was pretty impressed by that.”
3. To Jeremy Affeldt after Affeldt gave up a homer on what he thought was a good pitch. “Really, I went back to the clubhouse and looked at the pitch on video. It was a really bad pitch. Right over the middle of the plate, and you got it up. I mean it was a bad pitch.”
Affeldt: “Thanks, Zack.”
Zack: “Right down the middle. I could have hit it out.”
Affeldt: “Thanks, Zack.”
Zack: “Yeah.”
2. On making the Sports Illustrated cover: “There’s a lot more interesting stuff going on right now. They should have something else on the cover. Playoff basketball or something else. So it’s a mistake. They’ll probably sell their least amount of magazines in a long time — except when NASCAR was on the cover.”
1. On hoping President Obama would cuss him out at the All-Star game: “Because none of the White Sox guys like me. So I was hoping that he’d recognize me and be like, ‘You punk, I hate you.’ But he didn’t do that.”
And finally, my personal favorite :
“I don’t want to pitch for New York in the playoffs,” he told the people there. “I want to pitch for Kansas City in the playoffs.”

The Dodgers would run out of healthy starters and sign Bobby Jones out of retirement. He would toss a two hit shut out and strike out 11 Giants.

One run lead, bottom of the ninth in game seven of NLCS against the Dodgers. One on. Line-drive off of Pablo’s gut bounces half a mile into the air. Runner on base scores, as does the hitter (Russel Martin). Giants lose the game and are eliminated. As the ball comes down, it hits Timmy in his right shoulder. Pablo and Timmy both miss the 2010 season with a hernia and a torn rotator cuff, respectively because of this play.
