Charlie Morton
Career ERA of 5.74
No CG or SO in his ML career
Judgment Day is coming

This is what we've come to expect from their offense
Is it just me or do the announcers ALWAYS think the other team’s pitcher is “on” when the Giants can’t hit them? The Pirates pitching has not been good, the Giants hitting just flat out sucks.
The Giants make every pitcher look like an All-Star.
Dave sez
Morton is starting to make our hitters look bad. Starting?
I am not now, nor have I ever been, Lisa Stevens from Wells Fargo Bank.
And now treated to “We make the phones ring We make the phones ring…”
Why couldn't McCovey have hit the ball just three feet higher??
what is a visual representation of our offense?

HEY GUYZ
I’m thinking this Giants offense might not be very good.
Bruce Bochy would like you to look at the career numbers and stop complaining.
Renteria is worthless
Is there anything he can do?

Neither
It’s a long season. We’re just in a little slump. We’ll pull out of it. It’s going to be fine. All teams go through this. Remember how bad David Ortiz looked a few weeks ago? Did the Red Sox panic? The point is to not overreact. We’re going to look back at this series and laugh.

Why does Bochy require a starter to fail miserably before pulling him? Last time he went longer than six, it was against a Florida lineup without Hanley Ramirez aka Giants Sister Team
OMG he gave up a run!

Our best inning all season long has been the 8th.
I’m almost sure that’s true. . . .
Giants score a run in the 9th. Tying run on 3rd with no outs. Pirates pitcher strikes out the side.

What Natto said.
Plus, this year Ishikawa wOBA = .326; Aurilia = .234. So, yeah, Trashy has a chance to improve and he’s already much, much better. Still a long way from an average ML 1B, true, but Aurilia is just unspeakably bad.
We need some pop in the lineup. How about that Bonds fellow? I hear he still wants to play somewhere.
