Split Squad Lineup Hijinx!

It’s hard to imagine liking any lineup that features Aaron Rowand hitting cleanup, Edgar Renteria hitting second, and Aubrey Huff hitting cleanup.

Well, unless it was 2004. Except for Renteria, who sucked in 2004, so it would have to be the Renteria from 2003.

How can you like any lineup in which Rentarrhea is batting anywhere in the top 6 spots?

Q: Did you ever make an offer for Vladimir Guerrero?
Sabean: In a word: No. If we had signed Guerrero or [Gary] Sheffield, we would have been without [Long list of replacement level vets]—obviously not being able to field a competitive team, especially from an experience standpoint, given our level of spending.

re: blackout areas: if the Giants are playing one of the teams I’m blacked out from, is it just the local broadcast that’s blacked out, or both? I assume the latter, but I wanted to make sure.

speaking of blackout areas, by the way

I was surprised to find I’m in the blackout areas for the Rays and Marlins, but not the Braves. Which is weird, because there are a lot more Braves fans here. Plus Miami is like twice as far (if not more than that) than Atlanta. Go figure.

I guess it’s what teams claim as their area. 6 teams claim southern Nevada as their market and none are really close. So you’re pretty lucky that the only time you’ll be affected is when the Giants face the Marlins (I’ve never heard their radio crew but the Marlins TV is OK).

While talking about Jason Bay, Morgan somehow goes off on an RBI tangent and I think was praising the signing of Bay because of those precious RBIs. He then goes on to say that players with 100+ RBIs are better, not because of the sheer number of RBIs but its because of the 10-20 2 out clutch RBIs they produce that makes them superior to “normal” 70-80 RBI guys.

He also was talking about how his colleagues in the booth were more focused on ERA when he focuses on WINZ, and they should to.

Whoa. So all “normal” RBI guys are un-clutch. That’s even nuttier than the normal RBI arguments.

And, it’s a pro-RBI argument that, if applied, would rate Bengie Molina as only average.

A sandwich of pure chipotle en adobo. His comment? It was HOT. But he didn’t realize why.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/giants/detail?blogid=22&entry_id=59817

After sharing a warm conversation with another 2002 Angel, Bengie Molina, Salmon throw a bucket of ice water on the biggest crock of that Series — that the Angels rallied from a late 5-0 deficit in Game 6 at Anaheim because they were fired up over manager Dusty Baker handing starter Russ Ortiz the ball during a seventh-inning pitching change.

Salmon said he didn’t see it, and if anyone else in the Angels dugout did see it, they didn’t talk about it.

Whether or not he saw it, the premise is amusing to me. I mean, just imagine:

“OMG U GUYS!!! He gave Russ the game ball!!!! What an ass! Why, because of that, what say you we actually start tryinmg to win the World Series!?!??!?!?!?”

From Tim Kurkjian ST article
• The Giants are giving catcher Buster Posey a look at first base this spring because he is such a good hitter, such a good kid and isn’t ready to catch every day in the big leagues right now. He might be ready next year, but one Giants player said he thinks the best thing to do with Posey would be to move him to first base on a full-time basis, save his legs, and just watch him hit.

It sounded like he fouled a ball off which hit him in the foot and then bounced up and hit him in the face, so he had to leave the game. I think he only took a pitch or two before it happened.
