Post-Game Recap: Pablo Sandoval Doesn't Need Your Pity
by Grant Brisbee on Jul 11, 2009 9:05 PM PDT
Email
PrintX-rays negative. I wouldn't say that's better news than a no-hitter, but it's more practical. Without Cain, the Giants trade Bumgarner and Posey for Roy Halladay. They might then trade Alderson and Villalona for Matt Holliday. Then they trade Thomas Neal and Jonathan Sanchez for Hank Helloday, Sergio Romo and Scott Barnes for Fred Hulooday, and six different minor leaguers for Jim Hoboday. It would be a crazy overreaction to a serious injury, but that's how important Matt Cain is to this team.
In other news, Orlando Hudson went 0-for-4 with a strikeout. Pablo Sandoval has chunks of guys like Hudson in his stool. But, nope, Hudson's the All-Star. O-Dawwwwg! Not that I'm bitter.
Good win, though I'm starting to think the Padres need to add a hitter or two.

I was thinking today about milestones I’d really like to see Pablo reach:
I’m hoping for a .320+ average
30+ HR
200+ hits
.950+ OPS
40+ doubles
idk what else. 100 RBI if you’re into that.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
PABLO SANDOVAL AM STEAL DEATH, DESTROYER OF WORLDS.
I'd like to see him get 100 rbis
that way people can’t use that against him.
I think seeing him win the batting crown in his first full year would be sweeet..everything else would be nice too.

True
I’m thinking that if the Giants make the playoffs and Pabs blue ribbon keeps this up we’ll be bitching about how he got shafted on the MVP. Seriously, if there was a midseason MVP award he would have to be in the top 5. We would be so very mediocre without him.
I hope we're smarter than that
If the 2nd half plays out the same as the 1st (big assumption, I know), Pujols is the MVP and anyone that thinks otherwise is wrong.

I think it’s hilarious that Eliezer Alfonzo went out to dinner with Sanchez and his family after the no hitter. If I were I Padre fan that would really bother me. By the way, it’s funny how your perspective changes when the guy is on the other team. When I heard he was on deck in the ninth last night, I figured if Wilson walked Gonzalez, Alfonzo would hit a game winning homerun. If he were still a Giant and on deck in that situation, I would be thinking that he’s an automatic out.

For me it’s the cut off thing.

I am not too happy about that when the Kids do it either but they are supposedly learning. Vets that do that , especially on a pitching & defense squad, I have no tolerance for.

Brings up a good question. No chance he’ll be a super two, so two more years before Arb, three before Free Agency. What sort of extension would you give him now? I’d go six years, $36 or so.

I am still of the mind a league average 2nd baseman is the way to go. Move Uribe back to what he does best – utility man that occasionally gets a hot bat and usually does well vs.LHP.
If the team is hunting for whales I really want the Jays to dump Rios in our lap. I would move Rios into CF and Rowand over to RF. Better "D" and if (when) Rios bat improves you got one hell of a CF for the next few years.

Well with Quick Hook (for pre free agent position vets) Big Head around that is just not likely to happen.

this time last year (at the end of the day on July 11th,) the A’s were 9 games over .500 (Giants are 11) and ended up finishing 11 under. granted, they dealt Harden right before this, but here’s hoping the Giants do clinch and avoid horrific losing streaks. The A’s lost 6 in a row one year ago starting today and then lost 13 of 15 after that.
Are they that similar to the Giants now? Not really… but I just remember the relative hope over there.

The Mets series could be easy or it could be hard. It would depend on whether their injured stars return by then. I’m thinking Beltran will be back, but Delgado no, and Reyes probably no. Their rotation is a mess though. Fernando Nieve, Livan Hernandez, Oliver Perez (who is walking batters like crazy) are three of the five. Cincinnati can’t hit at all, I think that’s one of the few teams we can go into their bandbox and out slug. Milwaukee and Philly will be tough though, why are we going to Milwaukee again? Maybe we’ll miss Gallardo. Thanks, schedule makers.
Proud new dad of Edgardo errr Edgar Renteria!!!
I would be sooo ok with missing Reyes. The thing with the Mets is we have already spotted them 2 games this season and no one in the Nation LEast (i just love being able to make thtat bad pun) seems able or that intrested in taking control of the divison ( Maybe the Fish will) and putting the Mets out of things while they are down. They could be playing for thier lives when the Giants walk in there at the end of August and that part worries me.
That’s it! Katie bar the door for this 79 win team is star crossed! And I am loving it.
Looks to me like the Phillies have caught fire. They’ve been awful at home all year, but now they’ve put together an 8-1 homestand with the finale coming today against awful Pittsburgh. Five in the ninth last night to pull out a game is pretty awesome.
Proud new dad of Edgardo errr Edgar Renteria!!!
It is i.mpressive but I am not sure it is that relevant yet.
Their pitching is pretty cringe worthy, in my eyes, once they stop playing the cannon fodder teams. They are still 2-7 Vs the Braves and 4-2 vs The Fish so they still have their fate in their own hands but I am doubtful they will put an extreme hurt on either of those two clubs the rest of the way. Don’t both those season match ups still have a lot of away games for the Phillies?

I don’t like this logic. MVP is “Most Valuable Player”, not “Most Valuable Position Player”. If you argue that they have their own award, can’t you argue that Silver Sluggers and Gold Gloves are position players’ "own awards?

I really want to like Bochy with the team playing so well, but then he opens his mouth. Does he really think they wouldn’t have walked Panda intentionally yesterday if Molina was the cleanup hitter? Really? They would have extra incentive to have walked Pablo intentionally, with an all righthanded bullpen, and a potential DP staring them in the face with their ridiculously slow cleanup hitter. The Giants are now 12-3 without Bengie in the cleanup spot this season, and this is magnified by the fact that they lose offense when Eli Whiteside is catching. I don’t really care if the Giants make a deal before the deadline, but if a deal is the only thing that gets Bengie out of the cleanup spot, then they just have to do one.
Proud new dad of Edgardo errr Edgar Renteria!!!
just hope if we get a new guy it wont hurt our team chemistry
back in my day we wanted to be like magic larry now these days all you guys talk about is try to be like mike or becoming the next lebanon james
I don’t see the team getting an elite player in the next couple weeks so why would any new guy think he is all that? And if he does I see no reason to think a Sabean Giatns team will put up with that from a journeyman.
That’s it! Katie bar the door for this 79 win team is star crossed! And I am loving it.
the best argument for getting a new guy is that it tends to perk up the team. You should hear how excited the Mets are about adding Jeff Francoeur, and that guy’s a bum. If we brought in a solid player it could be electrifying. Let’s face it, we’re hot now so we don’t think we need anybody. After the break if we lose a couple of 1-0 and 2-1 games, the whining will commence!

Baggz all over this
–The line drive hit Cain just below the right elbow. It took a half hour for the numbness to subside.
–It’s officially a contusion. Cain is day-to-day, but he said it’s sore and it’ll probably continue to stiffen up.
–Cain is going to St. Louis. Bruce Bochy said it’s "doubtful" he’d pitch. Cain prefers to be more open-minded about the situation, saying he still hopes to throw an inning.
–The Giants were looking at Cain and Lincecum pitching the first and third games in Pittsburgh out of the break, with Barry Zito in between. Now Bochy said it looks like Lincecum will have to pitch the first game and Cain would get the extra time to pitch the third. That would give him eight days between starts.
–Apparently, they call these "frogs" and "monkey bumps" in the greater Memphis area. That’s how Cain referred to his injury.
Cain is a gamer

Not sure where the Anti-Ray sentiment comes from.
I think this is pretty darn wrong. Durham was one of those guys who was always smiling and usually laughing. Did you ever watch him in a post-game interview? He had a bubbly personality and seemed to be one of those guys who knew he was lucky to be doing what he was doing for a living.
He also produced offensively.
The only legit complaint about him was the injuries, but I really think he was a darn good Giant.
My adopted Giant: "Raptor Jesus" Guzman
I have spilt a lot of vitrol in ink about Durham from '07 on.
And even I know my anger had everything to do with the Big Head marching him out there 6 -7 days a week no matter how bad he was sucking for endless months on end and inventing more and more reasons to keep doing so. I never could blame Ray for wanting to play or taking and I have to say he was very classy during his period of prolonged suck.
I guess I should be like Cato and end every post now days with " … and Big Head must go."
