Giants/Brewers Series Preview
Remember when the Giants faced the Brewers in the first series of the season? And the Giants took two of three, and we were all, "Maybe this team isn't so bad after all?" And then the Giants lost every game on their next road trip, and we were all, "This team is so bad after all." And then the Giants started winning, and we were all, "Maybe this team isn't so bad after all?" And then the Giants scored .5 runs on a road trip through San Diego and Seattle, and we were all, "This team is awful." And then the Giants started winning, even sweeping the A's in the first interleague series, and we were all, "Maybe this team isn't so bad after all." And then the Angels swept the Giants at Mays Field, and we were all, "This team makes my liver hurt." And then the Giants swept the Rangers and took another series from the A's? I remember that last one as if it were yesterday.
Point being, it seems like the Giants have played seventeen distinct seasons since the last time they played the Brewers. Heck, the last time these two teams met, everyone was wondering if Tim Lincecum was alright. Whoa, what's up with Tim? Fastball velocity, Verducci Effect, and sophomore slump, all rolled into one foul-tasting enchilada! He couldn't get out of the fourth inning against the Brewers! Everybody panic!When the Brewers came around the first time, I was impressed with their offense, but to date the offense is just a shade under the league average. It's a very imbalanced offense, with Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder whomping on everyone, and Jason Kendall and Bill Hall hitting like Jason Kendall and Bill Hall. J.J. Hardy is having a rough season, and, man, I wish Jonathan Sanchez were having a good season so the Brewers would consider a swap. Of course, that would mean that Bochy would move Renteria to third and Sandoval to second, but that's a post for another time.
Hitter to watch:
Did you know that Craig Counsell has only hit .232/.320/.267 against the Giants over his career? Seriously. I would have guessed .400/.500/.500. Scrappy, OBP-dependent gritmasters always kill the Giants. At least, I thought they did. Maybe I just hate the whole sub-genre of scrappy, OBP-dependent gritmasters, and I assume that hate is rationally based on members of that sub-genre destroying my favorite team.
David Eckstein's career numbers against the Giants: .231/.279/.298. I...words fail. Scrappy, OBP-dependent gritmasters hit worse against the Giants than they do against the rest of baseball. At least, the two most annoying examples from recent history do.
Of course, you see what I've done. The scrappy, OBP-dependent gritmasters previously existed as quantum superpositions, simultaneously existing as players who killed the Giants at the same time they were ineffective against the Giants. By peeking under the hood and observing the statistics, I've forced the scrappy, OBP-dependent gritmasters into a definite state -- almost certainly, that state is one in which scrappy, OBP-dependent gritmasters will murder the Giants for the next decade. I can't apologize enough. I'm kind of embarrassed.
So Craig Counsell's upcoming four-triple game is brought to you by McCovey Chronicles. And Erwin Schrödinger. He gets most of the blame for inventing physics, or something.
Pitcher to watch:
I always wonder if Brian Sabean did a "shadow draft" after intentionally punting the 2004 draft pick for Michael Tucker. Part of me wants to think that there's a spiral-bound notebook somewhere filled with doodles, aborted diary entries, and something that reads "1. Dustin Pedroia 2. Yovani Gallardo 3. Hunter Pence", and that's what's behind the Giants newfound commitment to player development.
Gallardo is one of the nastiest pitchers in the game, with a goofy fastball/curve combo. He does have a weakness, though: he struggles against teams that don't chase pitches outside the strike zone. Ahem. So, yeah. Pitcher's duel! This should be a fine opportunity for Cain to showcase himself for his future team.
Prediction:
After the apocalypse, the sausages from the sausage race will initially band together to survive. When things move from desperate to unsustainable, the unthinkable happens: brother eats brother to survive. Only the bratwurst will remain, and his final days will be filled with regret.

Their hat logo is actually almost against baseball rules. There can be no baseball shaped objects on a player’s uniform because of the possibility of a player mistaking it for the actual ball. That’s why the Brewers and Phillies logos have only one seam on the baseball.

The .200 clip that Eckstein and Counsell hit are usually saved up for close games. When Braun and Fielder are whomping on us, expect them to just get a walk and then steal a base or 6.
I expect Cain to get a No Decision but we will get a bullpen win.
I expect Zito to get Cained.
I expect Sanchez to pitch pretty okay and get a win that he probably doesn’t deserve, and I’m okay with that.

It makes sense for the Brewers. Good pitchers are harder to find than good first basemen, and a single pitcher can have a pretty big impact. But Fielder over here would hit a few homers (although fewer overall because of the giant wall in right field), but he wouldn’t improve the offense all that much because offensively baseball is a team sport. Trading Cain for Fielder would be better for them than for us.

San Francisco Giants Band Together To Score Run
MILWAUKEE—The San Francisco Giants put aside their differences Sunday night, working together as a team in a common effort to score a run in a baseball game. The scrappy nine-man crew overcame daunting odds to cobble together the run, as each player used his individual strengths and skills to help string together an unlikely series of events—including a walk, advancement on a wild pitch, an infield single, and perhaps most selfless of all, a ground into double play—that ultimately resulted in a Giant crossing home plate. “This just shows you what a team can do when they put their mind to it,” said Giants first-baseman Dan Ortmier, who was swarmed by his celebrating teammates at home plate after scoring the run. The Giants lost to the Brewers 12-1.

They had a shield around it while it was being constructed. The shield generator was taken out by the rebels on Endor. Also, the exhaust port was changed on the new Death Star!
The most important revisions to the Death Star design made by Lemelisk were made to take into account and eradicate the technical flaws of the original battlestation which had enabled it to be destroyed during the Battle of Yavin. The first major change made in this redesign was the elimination of the two-meter-wide thermal exhaust port that was used to ignite a chain reaction in the main reactor of the first Death Star, destroying it. This was greatly improved, from a defensive standpoint, in the new revision. Instead of venting gases out of a single port, millions of millimeter-wide exhaust ports were scattered over the surface of the station, each of which propelled a small amount of the excess heat and gases into the vacuum. The new system also took advantage of new highly-advanced protections and safe-guards that would seal the small exhaust ports in the event of any unexpected excess of heat or energy.

Some of my least favorite Voyager episodes
- Favorite Son: Harry Kim finds his “true home world,” which reproduces by seeding children onto other worlds to be raised (never mind that Voyager is set on the OTHER SIDE OF THE GALAXY). The planet is really slutty, and they’re constantly screwing each other, so Harry Kim is like HELLS YEAH. But then it turns out that it’s a trap and they just want to eat his brains or suck his lifeforce or something.
- Threshold: Tom Paris invents a way to break the Warp 10 barrier (my Star Trek NERDZ know that warp 10 = infinite speed, so this actually makes no sense) in a shuttlecraft. However, doing so causes him to mutate and “evolve at an accelerated rate” (because that’s how evolution works!) until he becomes a frog creature. Then he kidnaps Janeway and takes her off on the shuttle, where she becomes a frog creature too. They land on a planet, spawn, and have frog children. Even though they’re travelling at infinite speed, they find the planet in like five minutes, magically cure Paris, and leave the frog children on the planet. My wife and I call this episode “Frog Fucking.”
- Virus (I think that’s the name): Harry Kim gets space herpes.
- The Fight: The ship enters a strange area of space which causes Chakotay to hallucinate that he’s boxing a spacial anomaly for some reason.
- Anything with Neelix as the central character.

Hypocrisy is always valid grounds for attack, always and everywhere.
If Bill Clinton has extramarital affairs, that’s one thing— he is well known to be a tough dog to keep on the porch. But when someone deliberately claims the mantle of righteousness and wants to cram his particular religious brand down your throat via public policy, then yeah, he gets the extra-hard kick in the nuts when he violates the standard he has ZERO hesitation to judge YOU by.

Consistency is all I ask for. If you don’t want to talk politics, don’t. If you do want to, do it, but try to avoid flame wars (and make sure Grant isn’t watching). But don’t talk politics one day and then try to shut someone up the next just because you don’t agree with him.

And what is with outright prohibition of a topic, anyway? Seeing something with which one disagrees is simply too, too much to bear? Please. This site is devoted to a topic that engenders passions, rivalries, differences, conflicts, etc.

But he also has a point; results to this point are not predictive of results going forward and as much as we rail against BTB or anyone who points that out, it doesn’t change the underlying facts. For example, our bullpen has been magnificent – but if you think Affeldt will maintain a 1.65 ERA all season and that our “worst” reliever will have an ERA of 4.15 (obviously better measures), I think we’re smoking something.

exactly
I’m thrilled we are where we are, but the bullpen in my mind is the prime candidate for regression. Aaron Rowand isn;t really likely to maintain an OPS of .860 all year (which he’s done once in his career); and I love Pablito, but a .930 OPS seems pretty damn unsustainable (and I really really hope I’m wrong). There’s a lot of potential rabbit holes here, and it behooves not to sweep them under the rug because we don’t like them. I’ll be thrilled if we contend despite all our flaws and we don’t have to give back wins already earned, but regression can be a bitch.

Yeah, Rowand and Sandoval coming down to earth should hopefully be balanced by Winn and Renteria returning to numbers closer to career averages. The bullpen, though (as Aadik points out) is pretty much all meeting or exceeding career norms at this point, and that could really fall apart.

I think actually it counts for one of his positive tests for banned substances. So it’s treated as a first positive and he’s warned and tested more.

I found an article on the suspension/penalties for using it on Baseball America in my research for a fiction story I’m working on. I was disappointed to find it doesn’t carry a suspension in the minors, because I was going to base a portion of the story on such a suspension.
Under the rules of MLB’s joint drug treatment and prevention program, a player suspended for 25 or more days has failed at least two drug tests after being entered into the program and was using a "prohibited substance’’ deemed by MLB more severe than marijuana. Under the rules, players cannot be suspended for use or possession of marijuana.

If you can stomach crude language and deplorable sentence construction, check out this email my friend sent me:
TRUE STORY: A friend of mine, she had a real shitty day the other day, her piano is broken and it’ll cost a lot to fix, and she got some other bad news, and then she was riding her bike in central park and a motherfucking dog bit her on the leg, like it broke the skin and also ruined her juicy couture velour trackpants (prolly for the best, about the pants). So to cheer herself up she decided to buy herself an ice cream so she went to the bodega and got a hagen dazs vanilla almond toffee bar from the freezer case and went to pay for it, the counterman said it’s $3.75, she was like fuck that I’m too broke for a $3.75 ice cream bar, she went back and put it in the case, there was a man leaning over the freezer case but she didn’t see his face, she headed out of the bodega and was getting on her bike and out of the bodega walks Alec Fucking Baldwin and he hands her the fucking vanilla almond toffee hagen dazs bar

We’ve just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.
Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon and paramedics were unable to revive him. We’re told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.
Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince “Blanket” Michael Jackson II.
Jackson had 13 number one hits during his solo career.
