I like Jeremy Affeldt
He induces batters to hit into double plays for the Giants.

so far he’s my favorite free agent.
Randy Winn is going to catch that. And he'll do it real classy-like too.

So the wife and I were eating lunch a few hours ago in a Subway, and I am wearing a Giants T-shirt. Some dudes came in and they were obviously on their way to Angel Stadium to watch LAA v. BOS. As they were leaving one of them yelled out some crap about the strike shortened 2002 season. If the wife wasn’t with me then I would have been obligated to yell some profanity back at them. But since she was with me and she is an Angels fan I stayed quiet.

Ok, my question
Yes its a day game following a night game, but the Giants are coming off a 2 game losing streak, into our young Ace who needed a bounceback game to probably help his self esteem from his subpar outing that he opened the season with, why did we take out or hot hitting centerfielder, the shortstop we brought in to provide an offensive (taken as you will) boost, move a hitter who has looked bewildered in all of his at bats thus far into the number 2 slot in the batting order, yet NOT give the day off to our aging and only starting catcher? Oh and also put in a terrible backup shortstop with no defensive range (maybe if we put a doughnut on second base he would dive or at least move a little faster) and SPEEDY MCFUCKUP into center.
This was a recipe to a shitty game. If anything all the starters should have been in to try and give Timmy the boost. Or if everyone was sitting Molina should have been TOP of that list.
Ok rant over.
I think it’s been well established here that we’re not big fans of Boulderskull.

2-3 - No game has had a margin of victory or defeat smaller than 3 runs thus far.
Adopted Giant: Daryl "Fat But Awesome" Maday - Scoreless 4 innings for first start in Norwich. Nice.
We're all Pedro Feliz
but we’re not all Pablo Sandoval.

Pablito’s bat needs to wake up.
Randy Winn is going to catch that. And he'll do it real classy-like too.
Meatwad?

Matt Cain vs. Dodgers tomorrow - that should be cool

Timmy’s next outing, the giants hitters need to really pick him up. I am really worried about how he is going to take these back to back poor starts. You could tell he was visably upset when he left the game today.
and he gets the L this time too

I hope the vets counsel him through this.

tied w/ D-Bags if they lose today, which it looks like they will
2-4 - Not many thing are more embarrassing than getting swept by the 2009 Padres.
