Great Article on the Pitching Staff

He makes some good points, including::
Tim Lincecum = good pitcher and he won a Cy Young last year.
Matt Cain = spectacular pitcher with 10 wins.
Randy Johnson = strikes fear.
Barry Zito = Throws long and hard, stable and steady AS EVER with prolonged steadiness ahead.
Jonathan Sanchez = pitches no-hitters.
Oh and sorry, Barry Zito also = Super Star.

ALL OF THIS = Greatest Pitching Staff EVAR.

LOL

I love the first sentence:

The Giants are currently in second place in the National League standings, according to ESPN

It’s a good thing that ESPN reported that the Giants are in 2nd place, because, I mean, like it’s such a well-guarded, hard to discover, secret that only ESPN could confirm something like that.

Buster Olney of ESPN is reporting that the Giants are in second place. I just saw it on the ESPN news crawl.

What a waste of an article. I love the Giants getting love, but that is a very lazy article

"What more can be said about Randy Johnson"?

You haven’t said anything yet, so what less could be said about him?

I like how they cited Canadian Press for Cain’s injury, not a local newspaper or anything.

This was hilarious

Local product Barry Zito is still throwing long and hard for the Giants

Yeah, that reads like something off the insert of a porno movie.

LOL @ the comments though.

great article x3, and a ’Let’s see, I know Randy Johnson I think.’.

oh and BTW

Lincecum won the 2008 National League Cy Young and therefore makes my argument more compelling.

is this really an article, or a spiderweb for discussion during show and tell?… the, erm, “analyses” of each pitcher could have be written by any Bay Area 4th grader.

how good is the giants' starting rotation? our rotation is so good, our 5th starters throw no-hitters. uh.

There is something fishy going on here. The author has written 148 articles for that site since the beginning of June. Now, even if they weren’t of the spectacular quality of this article, that would still be difficult to impossible.
