P Zito
This stellar lineup brought to you by CIC (Cretin in Charge) Bruce (I’m a fucking moron and NO, I will NEVER learn a thing about baseball) Bochy
If Bochy is going to be so stubborn as to let Bengie play ever day, he should at least switch him and Uribe in the lineup.

I’ve heard that Warren is very chatty at D3 shows! He’s pretty funny in some Bad Seeds documentaries I’ve watched, but obviously he doesn’t get much of a chance to talk on stage during Bad Seeds or Grinderman shows with Nick taking up all the frontman duties.

Per Baggs
Giants prospect Angel Villalona pleads innocent to murder charges, jailed while awaiting trial
Word arrived from the AP in Santo Domingo that top prospect Angel Villalona has been charged with murder in the shooting death Saturday of a 25-year-old man in La Romana, Dominican Republic.
Villalona, 19, entered an innocent plea and was ordered jailed for two months while authorities prepare their case. He wore a bulletproof vest to his court appearance, it was reported.
With malice towards the Dodgers
Wow DR is not fucking around. You have to spend time in jail until the trial?

Arbitration for him, but yes if he’s not back riots will flood the streets of SF
With malice towards the Dodgers
I don't know exactly how the process goes either, but here is the gist of it
It basically means the Giants still have control of him. Now what happens, is an outside source basically sets a price on what the Giants pay Lincecum based on Lincecum’s performance. If the Giants don’t want to pay this, Lincecum becomes a free agent and we all cry out eyes out.
Did I get this about right everyone? Does the arbitrator set the price the Giants HAVE to pay, or is it a recommendation?
With malice towards the Dodgers
each side, management and the player, make a case before an arbiter, including the desired salary. The arbiter decides either to award the player’s request or the management request. There are rules that govern the minimum amounts, like the clubs offer can’t be less than 80% previous year salary.
usually, clubs don’t like to go all the way to arb, as that puts them in a position of arguing against their player. If a longer term contract isn’t signed, then a one year contract will avoid arb for the year. This is the most common result.

Should be runners on first and second with no outs. But now a runner on first with one out. The Giants way!
I don’t think this is necessarily true. Buckner might have pitched Sanchez differently. There might be a different defense.

Hester must be a better catching prospect than Posey, because he plays and Posey doesn’t.

you’re right. Posey’s lack of experience would have prevented him from popping up to the second baseman like Hester just did.
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
He would have check swung and only popped up to the pitcher

As a rule of thumb..
When a baseball club feels the need to create commercials claiming to be “In his thing”, rest assured that they are NOT “In this thing”.

MLB Network just ran a Cy Young text poll:
Josh Johnson (the Marlin) 3%
Carpenter 24%
Wainwright 30%
TIMMEH 41%
Of course, this is a text poll, so YMMV.
Giants wins feel better than Dodger losses, but it's darn close.

I’ve been sitting here thinking of how Franchez hurt himself.
He was picking a hangnail.
He was stretching his pinky toe.
He was slapping a mosquito.
He was idly dancing to Jimmy Buffett.
He was rolling his eyes.
Still backing Notgardo, wheresoever he may wander. (Don't forget to wriiiite!)
He was climbing out of this thing

So I was thinking…
Jason Bay is ridiculously overrated and will be similarly priced. Holliday is not leaving St. Loo.
But the Giants need an outfield bat. NEED.
Is Milton Bradley too crazy?

I love the idea of buying low on Bradley.

Think of the possible upside..
Bradley is in a meeting with Sabean and Bochy. One of them says something that annoys Milton. Milton pulls a gun and kills them both, and then turns the gun on himself.
Three fucking douchebags gone in one fell swoop.
I like it.
by Sabean's_Folly on Sep 21, 2009 7:33 PM PDT up reply actions
I find this moderately tasteless, considering the fact that there is a Giant sitting in prison in the DR right now accused of killing someone.
But setting that aside, I’ve always had an odd respect for Milton Bradley. Yeah, he’s crazy. Yeah, he needs to learn to let shit go. But, damn it, the man has principles. His craziness doesn’t manifest itself like, say Terrell Owens’ look-at-me destructiveness. He really wants to win, and he really wants his teammates to do well. I dunno. This is a half-formed thought, I guess. I just keep wanting him to figure it out.

Man, Molina is just such a good player. I’ve never seen a man or god that I would rather have on this ball club.
THANK GOD FOR BENGIE MOLINA.

Molina is awful. The problem is that his backup, Eli Whiteside, is a career minor leaguer. I just wish we had another option.

Bags on Mr. Porcelain
When I spoke to Sanchez a day earlier in Los Angeles, he said his knees were better but not 100 percent and had limited his ability to do his normal strength training. It could be significant if Sanchez is out for the season. The Giants have to figure out whether to pick up his $8.1 million option or try to negotiate a two-year deal. They acquired him as a long-term piece, but a major injury could change all those plans.
I'm the Juggernate, bitch.
I think rubber noses should be mandatory at all government functions.
