Post-game thread: Sanchez is effectively wild, Giants score runs off Roy Halladay
by Grant Brisbee on Apr 26, 2010 10:09 PM PDT
Email
PrintJonathan Sanchez: I am so ****** angry right now. I allowed one hit tonight. One! And the Padres still won. I want to punch something.Matt Cain: Relax, kid. You’re a member of the Tough Luck Loss Club. Here’s your jacket, and here’s your $25 gift card to Outback Steakhouse. Wear it with pride and get your self a piece of wallaby steak, or something.
Sanchez: Screw that, man. These guys better pick me up the next time I’m struggling. One hit, and I’m the one who gets the loss? That’s a bunch of crap.
Cain: Ha. It doesn’t work like that. It just gets worse and worse. And the second the offense scores a couple of runs for you, the bullpen coughs up your game. Pitch your best and hope there’s a full moon. That’s all you can do. Remember, Jonathan, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever...
Sanchez: If the bullpen coughs up a game like that, I will cut them. I will cut each and every one of them.
Cain: You just need to go with the flow. You can’t change this team -- you can only do your best.
Sanchez: Whatever. The next time I walk five and leave before the sixth inning, this team had better score for me. And I don’t want to see the bullpen mess it up. I want a cheap win to make up for this.
Sanchez storms out of the clubhouse
Five days later
Sanchez gives up five walks in five innings, wriggles out of trouble every five seconds, and gets great bullpen help to go along with some run support
Cain: Dammit.
Several players leave the clubhouse to go out for drinks
Cain: Wait, fellas! Hold the door!
No one holds the door. The door slams shut in Cain’s face.
A slow, sad Vince Guaraldi song starts to play
fin
I told you they wouldn’t score six runs off Roy Halladay. What a difference a couple of two-out hits make. Best game of the year, non-comeback division.

FP has really stepped up his game. He was a disaster before and now I actually like his insights on the post-game show. He dropped “I played behind Zito in Oakland” the other day, but he’s cut his self-references way down.
Now if we can just teach him to move his upper lip when he talks.

Another theory that apparently holds no water suggests the Giants will not promote Posey until he is ready to stay. To the contrary, the team would have no problem bringing him to the majors to help the offense, then returning him to Fresno if he struggles.

What the hell does "innings eater" mean, anyway?
It seems like a backhanded compliment at best: “Well, he’s giving up four or five runs a game minimum, but you won’t have to pull this guy in the fourth all that often. So you’ve got that going for you. Which is nice.”
I mean, obviously none of that applies to Wellemeyer. He just sucks.

Innings eater
I think it’s related to the “quality start.”
An “innings eater” will sit around 6IP, 3ER.
It's someone who might give up a few runs
But keeps his pitch count down and is thus able to go relatively far into games
My Son was the third most valuable Giant position player by WAR in 2009. A little sad, a little happy.

So.
Moyer v Wellemeyer. As far as my ejaculatory optimism goes (safety glasses, please), I’m saying that this is as favorable a match up as the Giants could hope for. As far as reality goes, the Phillies hit like the Dodgers but more so. Still, AT&T appears to be in their head a bit. Maybe it will shake out into something tasty. Their power comes from the left side, mostly, so who knows? Alright, glasses off.
Point is, I feel good. A Phillies sweep would make my week.

I was introduced to Chipotle after years of non-Californian friends (Ohioans, incidentally) frothing at the mouth about it. So I was pretty underwhelmed when I finally got to try it. And I could get bigger, better burritos in the same style at a place in my college town for the same amount of money, so it took the lustre off the price point. Relative to the hype that people instill it with, it’s bland.

Huff 1B
Rowand CF
Note a key missing “gamer?”
Yes, also Bowker I suppose. He’s had about a full season worth of at-bats and he’s shown himself to be around Lance Niekro quality with a little more defensive flexibility.
Even though Schierholtz is not as patient at this point, he still could hit .300 in a season and produce more than Bowker.
Bowker’s had about a full season’s worth of at bats. spaced out over three seasons. not the same thing.
I see nothing that suggests Schierholtz can or will hit .300
He hit .300+ in both of his callups then .267 last year.
I don’t know the BABIP for the years but if it was low last year he could hit .300 given a chance.

He has evolved as a pitcher to the point that on any given day, he can match up against any pitcher — and he is the No. 4 starter in the San Francisco Giants’ rotation, behind Tim Lincecum, Matt Cain and a resurgent Barry Zito.
