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

If God had intended us not to rosterbate, he would've made our arms shorter.
The Giants will employ the revolutionary idea of having a batter hit from each side of the plate in a single at bat.

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.

speaking of mlb.tv
I’ve never had it before – in the past, when not in the Bay Area, I did the Gameday Audio thing.
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.

Also his own recievers were not too fond of his play style:
"You never know with Tim," Thompson said. "You can bolt, you think he’s running but he’ll come up and pass it to you. You just have to be ready at all times. With Brantley, everything’s with rhythm, time. You know what I mean, a real quarterback."
Ouch.

I read that article
and sounds like that WR is a selfish guy. Tebow did what he can to help the team win and they did, maybe Thompson should transfer to Georgia Tech where they run the triple option all day.

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

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.

His name is Bond, Brock Bond, and his adopted father? ME, any questions?
I think I’d be more dissapointed if Bowker doesn’t get the nod than if Posey doesn’t. Posey will be up soon enough, Bowker needs some consistent PAs. I fear that we’ll be having the “Bowker is on the trading blocks” conversation this winter.

Royals announcer just referred to “Nick Schierholtz.”
I have thought about sending an email to them along the lines of the questions asked in the Mychael Urban chats, but the guy seems sincere, so I decided not to.
Is he the Royals announcer, or just a generic MLB.com announcer?

I was in Tucson Sunday, and the D-Backs PA guy kept pronouncing Bowker’s name as “Bo-Ker”.
Why couldn't McCovey have hit the ball just three feet higher?

IMO Uribe has no business starting over Bowker.

Buster Posey is the best positional prospect the Giants have. What POSSIBLE reason could there be for putting him in a position where he’d be on the bench? THAT MAKES NO SENSE. WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THIS BULLSHIT

Question
Gameday indicated an injury delay, then said that Lormand was replacing Frandsen. Did Frandsen hurt himself watching Rohlinger take a called third strike?
Why couldn't McCovey have hit the ball just three feet higher?
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.
Yeah, he left on a 1-1 count
