I have been to two Giants games, both wins. Obviously I need to quit my job and go to the rest of them. I blame myself.

Trying to find a silver lining
Going into the season, there was a part of me that hoped the 2009 Giants would be like the 2007 Devil Rays – a team that was bad, and got the first overall draft pick, but then broke out all at once the next year. Now, the first half of that equation is looking more likely!

and of course the Wiki
In the DVD commentary for that episode, they mention the other players thought it was really funny that they wrote Darryl Strawberry as the goody two shoes. And that they originally wrote Jose Canseco in an unsavory light, but he objected so they rewrote it to have him rescuing a family and all their furniture from a burning house.
They did get at least one characterization right: as we all know Steve Sax really is responsible for every unsolved murder to ever occur in New York City.

But here I went out and purchased my own car, and I was excited. I actually had a reason to like driving again and at first it started out excellent. Now I’m starting to think you guys sold me a clunker:

Time for lineup changes?
Team slumping, no walks, few wins. Maybe drop Edgardo Renteria down from the 2-hole and move Lewis up. Strike while the fire is hot and move Rowand up. Maybe sit an infielder for a game.
And have a starter go more than 6 innings. Where are you Cainer?

Cain vs Kershaw Wednesday Night
Clayton Kershaw is a LHP so possible Ishikawa will sit. Sandoval is 1 for his last 15 so he is another candidate for a rest. Manny being Manny is not good so far. And Renteria is a struggling.
