Rally Matt Cain Thread 04/14 - 04/15

PrintGO!
It's a down time for Giants fans and I thought it would be appropriate to have a rally Giants thread. But, the team is just pissing me off as a whole (besides Dwight & Fred), so they don't deserve the honor.
So this thread is dedicated to Matt Cain, the lord of all that sucks in the world of baseball. Matt Cain will probably fail and will end up the suckiest of the entire rotation.*
*(just kidding... Matt Cain is awesome)

He does seem quite blind when throwing the ball back from the outfield.

If your dad doesn’t already have a burly handlebar ’stache, he needs to grow one. Actually, I think applies to everyone.

GIANTS WALK 14 LAST 3 GAMES AND ACCEPT NO WALKS WHEN BATTING
Cain is losing weight this year. Maybe he can no longer afford to lose games. iF THE TREND Continues, in a few years Timmy will weight 245, and Matt will weigh 170. If Timmy’s dad could teach Randy Johnson, the Lincecum windup, Johnson would be throwing the ball about 126 MPH.

Well, they probably could have made those tubes a little smaller, but then the rebels could have just shot the womp rat sized hole to destroy it again.

when are we finally going to see that Matt Cain might not be any good? I say we trade him right now, while his value is still relatively high with other teams. Any ideas?
