Just thanks Bochy and Sabean...
for realizing Jose Guillen sucks dick an should not be on the roster because ross is better than him in every way.
Yes, all credit there.
Not-Guillen is a tremendous player.
Rooting for Jose Casilla to take his K- and GB-inducing skills to the majors and join his brother.
I would assume that whatever slim chance Guillen had to play in the NLCS went out tthe window when he decided not to join the Giants in their quest to beat the Braves…

[W]hatever slim chance Guillen had to play in the NLCS went out the window when . . .
. . . his seriously injured neck flared up into substantial pain, which had the added benefit of allowing haters to mock him for choosing not to take long airplane flights so as to then sit for hours on a bench day after day.

He wasn’t locked in, he definitely had subpar stuff. Control was iffy (although the ump wasn’t helping) and velocity looked down.

How should we set our rotation for Philly?

Or am I overthinking this and we should just stick with Lincecainchezgarner?

"I thought he was going to punch me and I was totally accepting of it. I was planning a reason to thank him if he did." Brian Wilson on Buster Posey
The deciding factor was that he didn’t want Lopez to pitch to Gonzalez (who actually is worse against lefties for his career). I would have gone with Lopez anyway and had him pitch to all 3 if needed.
I would've brought in Lopez to face McCann
and then either Wilson for a 4 out save or Romo/Ramirez to finish the 8th

Haha don’t worry Romo will bounce back.
Rooting for Jose Casilla to take his K- and GB-inducing skills to the majors and join his brother.
I think one thing that swayed him was 1) the past performance of Romo/Ramirez 2) the fact that Lopez made Heyward look silly earlier in the series. Ultimately, he just really wanted that Heyward matchup.
Yes but McCann is a better hitter than Heyward
Buster Posey>
"I thought he was going to punch me and I was totally accepting of it. I was planning a reason to thank him if he did." Brian Wilson on Buster Posey
Oh, I completely agree, he’s a better hitter and the past history in the series on top of it. I’m just trying to rationalize Bork’s logic. I would have brought in Lopez for McCann also. I don’t even think Gonzalez v. Lopez is that egregious a matchup that you have to wait for him to face Heyward only.

I’d have gone with Renteria — walk’s as good as a hit there. And Edgar was coming into the game anyway.
amen to all
After taking out Burrell too early in every other game, he left him in too long tonight.
Also, nice clank from Renteria. Hokysmoke must be eating his hat, between that and the Giants winning.

If you take Burrell out of the game for a pinch runner, and the Giants don’t score, then you don’t have one of your best hitters in a tie game.
Let me put it another way—if pinch running Schierholtz for Burrell matters, you already have the lead. So why bother?
Thing C
because of the problems in actually holding a lead of one run?
It’s the same reason Cody Ross throwing to second kept that runner on 1st while the Braves scored their first run was so important.
It ended up not mattering either way, but I still think he was just reacting to (justified) criticism for lifting Burrell too early in the other games.

Gonna take awhile for this to sink in completely. I’m loving the moment, but this series was so weird that I’m still expecting some arcane rule to be expected where the Braves get another three tries, and then a pinch-hitting Bobby Cox hits a walk-off homer.
But, no. It is very unlikely that will happen. Almost impossible. The Giants really won this. They won the NLDS and will be advancing. This is a happy time. It is time to feel happy. I’m going to start feeling happy now, if that’s okay.

I gather from your comments there are a couple of other things you don’t know, Marjorie. For example, you probably didn’t know that Suzanne was the only contestant in Georgia pageant history to sweep every category except congeniality, and that is not something the women in my family aspire to anyway. Or that when she walked down the runway in her swimsuit, five contestants quit on the spot. Or that when she emerged from the isolation booth to answer the question, “What would you do to prevent war?” she spoke so eloquently of patriotism, battlefields and diamond tiaras, grown men wept. And you probably didn’t know, Marjorie, that Suzanne was not just any Miss Georgia, she was THE Miss Georgia. She didn’t twirl just a baton, that baton was on fire. And when she threw that baton into the air, it flew higher, further, faster than any baton has ever flown before, hitting a transformer and showering the darkened arena with sparks! And when it finally did come down, Marjorie, my sister caught that baton, and 12,000 people jumped to their feet for sixteen and one-half minutes of uninterrupted thunderous ovation, as flames illuminated her tear-stained face! And that, Marjorie — just so you will know — and your children will someday know —-is the night the lights went out in Georgia!

I was hoping this one would go 5, and I was also hoping the Bravos would be put down without handing them their own Buckner to bitch about for years, but ya know what? Having them lose in Atlanta is good enough.
So, Saturday night predictions:
Both teams are no-hit into the 29th inning when Chase Utley hits a JUST FAIR homer down the right field line off Timm-AH’s first mistake pitch at 11:53AM ET Sunday.
Halladay is angry it’s a walk-off and demands to pitch the bottom of the 29th anyway.
The Giants say, “no big deal, we’ll get ’em in game two” while Doc & Timm-AH unanimously agree Tim Hudson’s a punk.

To match as closely as the Braves did throughout this playoff series will hopefully mean the team will be just as fearful a competitor next year. Best of luck to your favorite team, and thank you for stopping by with the message of good sportsmanship.

Wow, just wow. What a series.
That seventh inning has to be among the ugliest series-winning rallies in baseball history. The Mookie-Buckner game was Michelangelo in comparison. And then the team GIDP’d its way to the finish line …
But the victory is just as sweet.
What a series, indeed.
And to anyone who didn’t watch because they “aren’t interested in the Braves or Giants:” you just missed the best playoff series I’ve seen in years. It was incredible.
If this series didn’t thrill you, you don’t really love baseball.
I'm as tall as Mel - why can't I hit 500 home runs?
I didn’t watch because I couldn’t (was at games 1 and 2). Radio wouldn’t have been the same. I need the visual.
"Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be." - John Wooden
Truly an evenly matched series
So tense on every pitch. Details mattered so much. Magnificent pitching on both sides; edge to our starters and their relievers. The difference really was unclutch defense on their part. But I love this kind of baseball, and had the Braves won, I would have rooted for them the rest of the way. They were tough.

I liked the line. And my favorite story about Philly is from my wife, who is in survey research. As a result she has at times hired phone houses to do surveys nationally. Apparently Philly is slightly more expensive to survey, since respondents are so amazingly obnoxious, a greater than expected quantity of the minimum-wage phone drones quit.
We don’t like to be bothered after work. If it makes the surveyors feel any better, my friends better have a goddamned point when they dial my number up.

3. Lee hits a warning track fly ball, not great off the bat, not a great sound, crowd gets excited (they are supposed to), announcer gets really loud “FLY BALL…(down 3 levels now) caught at the warning track”

What sort of devil is he?
That had me caught in a trap
And chose to let me go free?
It was his hour at last to put his seal on my fate!
Wipe out the past and wash me clean off the slate!
All it would take was a flick of his knife
Vengeance was his, and he gave me back my life

I think Cain and Durty will be more effective than Timmy well. It sounds a bit absurd , but I think Phillies will lay off Timmy’s change up and walk rather strike out.

I know it's not going to happen, but
I’d start Sanchez for game 2 and Cain game 3. Cain is a fly ball pitcher and Citizens Bank Park is tiny, plus Sanchez shut them down there already this year.

It is pretty terrifying for me to wear my Giants cap, which I usually do, and now often be approached by strangers wanting to talk about the game.
Ryan Rohlinger lives in my basement. I let him out to play baseball.
If you're talking about people previously without a team all of a sudden professing allegiance to the Giants
I used to think those people sucked, but now I don’t care as much (I know I just signed up for MCC last week, but take my word that I’ve been a fan for a long time).
No matter what, the emotional payoffs (win or lose) that real fans experience after having invested so much for so long will always completely dwarf any level of excitement the latecomers may feel. Just my 2 cents
I like seeing Giants gear around town
So I am a fan. More bandwagon means more gear.
And you are...?

You probably touched on this TBS nonsense during the GDT but
I loved how after Ross knocked in the go ahead run, the rejoin was all about the glorious play at the plate.
I also loved Dick S noting that the two bases loaded home runs Uribe hit during the regular season were also grand slams.

even after the game
their ending highlight reel was mostly shots of the Braves.
And if I had to see another shot of Hinske in the dugout during the game I was going to break the TV.

Seems like leaving Guillen off the roster and starting Ross worked out OK.

Sadly
We knew that this was the only way Guillen wasn’t going to start in the NLCS…
I don’t think staying at home helped his case either, though…

Guillen is not going to the NLCS
Giants will carry an extra pitcher (Zito) and one less position player…probably Rowand
Good.

Braves fan here
First of all, congrats. It was a great series, and I enjoyed (almost) every minute of it.
The Giants seem like a classy group of guys, and I will be pulling for them to win in all. I also hate the Phillies with a passion, so it’s a win-win for me if you guys pull it out.
I know some of you rode Conrad pretty bad. The guy is a blue-collar, no-BS guy, and I feel horrible for him. We didn’t lose the series because of him; we lost because your team played better.
For the record, I don’t believe in ‘trolling,’ so if I ever pop up here, it’s because I like baseball, and I respect other teams too (and their fans’ opinions). See you guys next season.
Now go destroy the Phillies!

Intense series – congratulations to you on a good year, and thanks for the encouragement. May the Giants leave only destruction behind them in Philadelphia.

I think the prevailing sentiment here was definite empathy for Conrad. We liked that his mistakes led to the Giants winning, but he seems like a class act and a good story and it’s tough to see something like that happen to anyone. I hope this isn’t the end of his career – it’s not his fault he was forced into a role that really wasn’t the one he belonged in.

Conrad showed real class
Never want to see someone be a goat like that, especially a class act like Conrad. The fact that he sat there at his locker and took all those painful questions head on says everything you’d need to know about him. And Ryantex, you showed your character by coming over here and saying congrats. Thanks, and you stay classy!
Hey Sandoval, mix in a salad. Everyone else, mix in a walk.
Thanks!
We all were happy to find a way to win, but everyone feels for Conrad.
And this NLCS will be epic. We all hope for the best.

And we are in turn impressed that you understand that about Conrad and aren’t destroying him a la Buckner and Bartman.
/rant
I mean seriously, Boston? You unjustly single out and crucify the guy, you run him out of town, you wait nearly twenty years, until after you win the World Series, and then you hold a “we forgive you, Bill” ceremony. Yeah, how about “fuck all y’all?” If I was Bill Buckner, I would’ve jogged across that field, stepped up to that mic, and told each and every person in Red Sox Nation to kiss my hairy ass.
And I know you aren’t reading this, Steve Bartman, but good for you for refusing to play that game.

No problems on the scalp for me. I do like bald. Tim Hudson’s a great example. But some guys look better in shorter hair or longer hair. It just ‘fits’ them, I suppose.
Anyway, it’s all subjective.

usually, I don’t care for shaggy, unkept hair either but so far I don’t hate it. so with this year it’s been mohawks and weird beards, predictions for next year’s hair trends? I say mullets and vandyke beards!! now that would be something no other team would copy!

I do not think they make any change.
They really have the best team they could put together on the roster right now.

I agree.
but i think Darren Ford will find his way on the roster because seems like PR speed was a concern of bochy’s. just a hunch. i’m actually probably wrong.
Yeah
but all he can do is run. He cannot hit, he is an ok defender. You do not put a kid like that right in the middle of a championship series.
Who do you pull for him as well?

It is also unclear that he is good at stealing bases
He is definitely very fast, but there is a lot more to base-stealing than being fast (although, that always helps – ha).
From what others have posted here, he wasn’t lights out stealing in the minors.
We could if Burrell was a 9 inning guy
We have 5 OF, 3 starters, 2 pinch hitters on each side who play great Defense. Ishy and Renteria provide another lh and rh pinch hitters.
It’s possible Panda is expendable. If they want to go 1 middle infielder backup, Fontenou.
Or Mota… He saw no action. After starting dominance, our pen is stocked full of observers. Add in the fact there is 2 days off in there….

I’m a die-hard Phillies fan, grew up in Philadelphia. I’ve lived through decades of terrible Phillies teams. I am looking forward to the Phillies and Giants meeting in the playoffs.
It is the Giants duty, their sacred obligation, their small role in righting what is wrong with this world, to crush the Phillies and with them John Yoo’s evil dreams of world domination and single-party rule.
I always knew we were the good guys. Even at age nine.

IT Guy: That’s how often they get on base. I do not know why you keep asking me, I am here to fix your server.
My pregnant wife, who’s due on Friday:
“Do you think the delivery room will have a TV?”
Me: “I don’t know, why?”
Wife: “If the Giants are playing, then we could watch them.”
Me: “I love you.”

She's a keeper
Kitspool Jr. and I watched the Giants lose to the Dodgers at home (the middle game of that horrible sweep) the night he was born in June. It was a tough but fair welcome to the world of Giants fandom.

/swoons the more I think about how this kid handled him self today (especially when it could have been Zito) I am increasingly impressed by his control and composure. Sure we have this thing called veteran grit but man, how ’bout those young ones?! Not only that, but now we have a well rested Timmy for the Phillies, man oh man I love this team-I wanna adopt them all! :o)

Ross
The Cubs hated playing against Ross. He not only came up with clutch hits – he also robbed players of extra base hits.. Good thing you have him, He and Lincecom were Mikey’s nemeses’, and now they are team-mates. . Hope they take you all the way. If the Giants are in the World Series, it will take Mikey’s mind off his upcoming nuptials. He is getting married the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Hope he gets 2 rings in November.
2002-2010 NLCS Again!
Cody Ross showed the world what he’s made of tonight with a game tying no hit wrecking home run along with hitting the go ahead base hit that ended up being the game winner. He was nearly a one man offensive show with Juan Uribe hitting a difficult to field bases loaded grounder to tie it @ 2-2 for the other rbi. Madison Bumgarner pitched a respectable gritty 6 innings and was the winner giving up the 2 Atlanta runs in what ended up being the final game for Manager Bobby Cox. Santiago Casilla gave the performance of his life up to now in his 1 & 2/3rds innings while Javier Lopez quietly picked up the final out in the 8th.. Brian Wilson saved the game giving up 2 harmless walks in the 9th. The Giants go to the 2nd round for the 1st time since reaching the ‘02 World Series. Not as long as other teams but it’s been a while. It was a job well done and it was an intense pressure packed series. It’s off to play the Phillies, who are one of the hottest teams in baseball, and the Giants are also prominent on the list with a 54-31 record covering the 2nd half of 2010 & the NLDS. The Giants have the edge with their pen and their starting staff is close in proximity to being even. The offense is even in some spots with edges going to each team in others. It will be a great series and don’t expect to see a sweep. . Congratulations Giants, you played excellent baseball and are finally back in the NLCS!
From Chicago
Best of luck to a great Giants team!!!!!
