PrintBlah blah blah, Bengie Molina two homers, three year extension, RIP Buster Posey, etc etc
The really important thing here is that Pablo Sandoval is a BAMF. The really cool thing about his season, I think, is how consistently good he's been this year. His lowest BA in a month? .298. His lowest OPS in a month (after tonight's outburst)? .790. His K/BB the last two months? 24:22. He's special, folks, and only getting better.

Why do San Francisco teams insist on having terrible offenses? Frank Gore and Pablo Sandoval can't do it all.
What a shock. Dude can hit lefties! Good thing we benched him and played Renteria!

It's all one thing:
Neukom replaces Sabean, or he doesn’t.
If he doesn’t, every one here knows, what happens.
If he does, then the rest remains to be seen. Having worked with Sandy Alderson, I give him my vote, and as many more as I can stuff the ballot box with.

I don’t know how many of you heard the national anthem tonight but for those who did, it was “interesting” wasn’t it? Renel announced someone named “Donna” and we heard a man’s voice. Everyone around me had the WTF look.
If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding.
It was an interesting minute or so when I heard it on the radio. I definitely turned my head to the side like a confused dog when I heard “Donna” and then what seemed like a man’s voice singing the anthem. It was, uh, very debatable that “Donna” wasn’t actually “Donald” or something like that.

This is something that would only happen in San Francisco. I doubt a drag queen would be singing the national anthem in any other city (and might include Cal football games).

Props to the heckler
There was a pretty good heckler audible on the CSN feed kindly informing various Diamondbacks that they were, in fact, bums. He even got some call and response going! Oh, college hockey memories…
But it usually comes from the bleachers, and it was coming from all over tonight. They seemed to be especially targeting Justin Upton.

Well, there are stupid people out there who wouldn’t want him because he “isn’t a Giant”. The types who think Bengie Molina is the best catcher in baseball and Bruce Bochy is a great manager.

You mean you know Giants fans who are strictly opposed to the Giants ever signing a free agent or making a trade?

Among the multitude of sports powerhouses in Arizona...
…they also have a WNBA franchise – the Phoenix Mercury.
Does the name Diana Taurasi ring a bell with anyone? She was All World at UConn , and the Merc grabbed her. I’d been meaning to take in a game for , oh several years now…sort of D’OH’d when I heard they’d already won a championship but hey…women’s basketball?
Then I checked some scores , and I thought there might be something to it. But I still let it fall out the back of my head…until Steve Kerr (Yes , THAT Steve Kerr) bought some 7000 tickets to help flood US Airways Arena tonight. Well , couldn’t beat free , so I bagged one and went to the game.
There IS something to it , after all…sloppy basketball cheered on with reckless abandon by the largest gathering of unlovely women in the world.
Taurasi , apparently , is this year’s WNBA MVP. Frankly , she looks tired. She and the Mercury managed to squeak out an overtime victory in the first game of some tier of playoffs over the Indiana Fever due , I think , to some hometown officiating.
Anyway , all things considered I would rather have been in on this performance…but the fact is – and I hate to admit this – I was unaware these two titans were tilting at each other.

And now for something completely different . . . .
I’m not 100% sure of the source, and completely blank on its credibility, but what is the sense of the house on the rumored possibility of an Aaron Rowand for Milton Bradly trade?
(As someone pointed out somewhere, at very worst, Bradley’s contract is a year shorter.)
Heaven knows Bradley’s numbers are good, and he’s only 30 (only?). But there’s a package there. . . .

by troymccluresf on Sep 30, 2009 9:25 AM PDT up reply actions
You’re forgetting the addition-by-subtraction potential. By removing Rowand’s hypnotically swinging bat, the spell will be broken and Giant hitters will finally be able to lay off the slider low and away.
And we’ll have Milton Bradley (and his cheaper, shorter contract), so we could still have the potential to add by subtraction! Yay!

I was at the game today, and was standing on the arcade when Montero hit his second home run.
I have never been on the arcade when any ball has been hit into the water, home run or foul. That one went nearly directly over me, I got to watch it from bat all the way to the water, spinning on my feet to do it.
That is a singular, incredible experience, even if it wasn’t a Giant hitting it. I don’t know that I’ll ever get to experience that again, but I’m glad I got to be there once.

Fucking stupidly insensitive.
The Adenhart family should , at the very least , hold a closed – door clubhouse meeting with these meatheads and rip them a new one. Sure , they mean well in a fratboy clubhouse cameraderie sort of way , but the underlying reason Nick was blown up was alcohol based and not everybody was his thickheaded clubhouse teammate.

Hardly.
As the ad points out, these guys have gone above and beyond for the Adenhart family. all year long. The internal combustion engine had as much to do with that crash as alcohol. Was it fucking stupidly insensitive that these guys drove to the park? Had Adenhart been the sole survivor, would he have then sworn off alcohol for the rest of his life? Would he have not taken part in the standard beer-spraying celebration? Please.

Let me ratchet it up a notch.
I’m all born again about DUIs having fallen asleep – and subsequently waking up sliding sideways – behind the wheel of a car doing 70+. I had a BAC of .2…yes , point two. The potential for damage/loss of life was substantial , I can’t deny that…no more than I can deny that it was a complete and utter miracle no one was – including myself.
In retrospect I’m just not one to gloss over anything alcoholically influenced , especially something as tragic as what befell Nick Adenhart…nor can I ignore or spin recombining his memory or toasting him with what was so obviously a factor in his untimely demise.
The Angels tried to contact Nick’s father , who strangely enough had not contacted them back as of yesterday afternoon. Maybe he felt it didn’t deserve to be dignified with an answer…those are the people best qualified to sit in judgment of actions like the Angels performed.
I certainly wish Nick was here to answer your question on how his own experience affected him afterward…certainly no one on Earth can do that as well as he could…

Reminds me of the Livan Hernandez story I told earlier this season:
A friend of mine was with the team during their recent trip to St. Louis. He got to go to Woody’s shed or shack or whatever it’s called. Not surprisingly he said that Woody was a great guy, that Gardner and Righetti were constantly teasing him, but that Woody would just laugh it off. At some point during the evening, Woody told my buddy the story of how Livan Hernandez got Krispy Kreme donuts banned from the clubhouse.
He said at some point Sabean came into the clubhouse shortly before a Livan start and saw Livan take down about 12 Krispy Kremes. Livan then went out and got shelled. Sabes banned the donuts from the clubhouse. Pretty straight forward story I guess but I thought some of you might like to hear it.
We're all basically Pedro Feliz.
Sandoval will be a starting all-star for the next 8 to 10 years if...
He can change at least half of his fat to muscle and thus drop the Panda nickname. At his current weight for his height, he’s gonna get arthritis by 30.
