I think Bowker deserves a legit shot vs LHP but Fred is a more valuable player if you protect him from them, imo.

I can’t quite figure out how to eventually have Fred, Nate, and Bowker in the same lineup. What do you think?

by sweetjuxtapose on Sep 2, 2009 3:13 PM PDT up reply actions  

You could put Bowker at first, I guess. But sitting Garko vs a LHP is not the best managing decision.

I remember him botching a few plays, though they could have been mostly due to inexperience. I think he played mostly LF and RF in Fresno this year.

Maybe if Bengie took a look at what real ball players do
MIAMI — A frustrated and injured Hanley Ramirez says he is only “10 percent” healthy and that he “got some people upset” after leaving the Florida Marlins’ 4-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night with a tight left hamstring.

The National League batting leader said Wednesday that he would keep playing despite being injured because “you don’t get the same respect from teammates when you’re not playing.” Asked to clarify who was upset — whether it was teammates, fans or media — Ramirez ended the interview with reporters.

Ramirez, in the midst of an 0 for 14 slump, was replaced in the top of the fifth Tuesday night. The hamstring has bothered him for most of the season, and he also was sidelined for a few games in July with a hip flexor.

Ramirez was in the lineup Wednesday.

The most interesting reaction, of course, is Molina’s. He frustrated management while missing games with a strained upper right quad — Wednesday marks the eighth consecutive — and said he plans to play Thursday. I asked him point-blank if he felt the Giants were sending a message by bringing up their top prospect, especially after they said multiple times they didn’t plan to do so:

"You know what, probably," said Molina, who is a free agent after the season. "This might mean I’m not coming back next year. Who knows? I’m ready for anything. I know how baseball goes. Whatever they want to do. The only thing I can say is that I’ve got my chin up always. I’ve done a lot for this team and helped many guys. I hold my ground. I’ve got nothing to be ashamed of. If they don’t bring me back, hey, you have to move on."

"Regarding any messages, I don’t know. If that’s what they’re trying to do, I don’t think that’s the way to send a message. But if they are, who knows. We’ll see."

He should be given some of the credit for the solid pitching this year, and he’s been about what we thought he would be in a Giants uniform. He’s just not part of the future, and he needs to realize that.

This is annoying to me

Per Baggs:

Here’s manager Bruce Bochy on the move, and how Posey will be used: "Buster is the best catcher in our system and we needed some help. It’ll give us a little more coverage, which was a need there given Bengie (Molina’s) situation. … We had a little concern. The last thing we want to do is put Garko or Sandoval back there."

To that end, Bochy said Posey would be used off the bench or in double switches. Bochy can pinch run for Molina more often, too. And the manager had no reservations about putting Posey behind the plate late in games.

Makes sense. Posey is the best catcher in the system, so he will be a part time player. Buster, meet F-Lew.

wow. Kinda surprised about English. I know he didn’t have a great season, but I figured he could still be a useful reliever.

This is one of the reasons why I wasn’t thrilled about the callup – the 40 man space wasn’t there, and both those guys are definitely going to get claimed.

WHY DON'T WE BUNT WHEN WE GET LEADOFF DOUBLES?

Is it in the 10 commandments of Bochy to NEVER bunt when you get a leadoff double? I know Nate just doubled and if Eli would’ve bunted it would’ve brought up Penny with a runner on 3rd, but this isn’t the only instance this season where we CANNOT move a runner over.

We haven’t scored in 14+ innings in this series – BUNT THE RUNNER OVER.

Yesterday too

When Garko got a leadoff double and sat stranded on second while we flailed at pitches out of the strike zone. It’s not rocket science, setup a sac fly situation with one out, if you haven’t noticed Bruce, we don’t score runs in conventional fashion or in bunches.
