I will say this, though:
as much as he’s struggled, he’s still a ton of fun to watch. It’s pretty obvious that he loves what he’s doing, and when things go right he’s hysterical.
Different player, but thankfully, still the same guy. My wife compared him to the guy who’s always late to class in high school but has a hilarious excuse every time.

Exactly.
Though it does raise the question: what WOULD convince you Rowand was coming out of it?
I’m not sure I know at this point. I’ve been so pleased with the current outfield that I’d still rather give Nate more starts before I decide if Rowand has his shit together.

if his OPS gets above .700
I’d start to give him more chances again (while sitting Bengie)

What REALLY makes me furious about this game:
that Bengie Molina is still in it.
Bork should have double switched back in the 3rd or 4th inning and gotten Posey some quality innings behind the plate. It’s just a shockingly bad way to handle your Catcher of the Future.
Giants Baseball: TORTURE
If Steve Decker was managing Bengie’s ass would be glued to the bench and every time he got up to pinch hit he’d be removing splinters. Buster would be his catching.

Are probably locks for 3 of them. From there it is dicey (based on ASG logic)

Timmy (Winz and Ks)

I’m sure they are. You can tell they’re getting frustrated at the mound, I’m surprised they still throw breaking pitches since he can’t even block those which is insane considering the wide body and massive amount of fat he has to try to block things.

3 runs may be insurmountable for the Giants offense but I think 7 runs is where your team starts getting thrown at when you steal.

I’d be okay with Rowand going on one of his ridiculous hot streaks.
