This week's rotation

by Fresburg on Apr 20, 2009 10:42 AM PDT

Anyone know who will be pitching this weekend?

With the Giants coming to AZ this upcoming weekend, I'm hoping to catch a couple of the games. Obviously I'm hoping to avoid a Zito game, so does anyone know what the scheduled starting pitchers will be this week? Has this been announced yet?

If they follow the games scheduled, Cain and Zito would go Tuesday and Wednesday, leaving Sanchez, Lincecum, and Johnson over the weekend.

It should be Sanchez, Lincecum, and Johnson, in that order.

sad

I was planning on going to the Dodgers Giants game on Tuesday the 28th but based on my calculations it’s going to be a zito start. I’ll likely be staying home if it is, spending $50 to watch twitter pitch does not sound like a smart choice.

yeah

I was thinking of taking a half day off of work and spending the afternoon at the yard. Since it’s a Zito start, I will just take a long and late lunch break and watch a few innings in the archways instead.

Actually

It might be better to spend the afternoon at the ballpark since the game is at night. You won’t have to see Zito pitch.

wrong day. Maybe I’ll take Wednesday off then…

I think you got it wrong: 5 stages of Ginats rotation

1. Denial
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Accepance
5. Zito

I get that RJ is anger because he kicked the cameraman in NYC, and I can see that Cain is bargaining. Cain can either be the center of stupid trade scenarios or we can be making deals with God to get him some run support. Maybe Tim is denial because the scouts were in denial of his awesomeness, thus we get him.

I don’t know if Sanchez is acceptance though.

I'm more interested in the SJ Giants rotation

Anyone know where to get the probables for SJ? If Clayton Tanner gets the start tonight then it’s Alderson tomorrow and MadBum for the Wednesday afternoon game.

Noonan. Nooooonan!

I think we get Tanner tonight. I just picked up a temp office job so my days of flitting off to San Jose at a moment’s notice are gone, gone, gone. :(
