Post-game thread: Giants shut down by Tim Hudson
by Grant Brisbee on Aug 7, 2010 6:58 PM PDT
Email
PrintThis series is really getting me excited for that potential first-round playoff series against Atlanta, how about you?
Matt Cain was cained, thoroughly and without mercy. He knew better than to allow a run. Tim Hudson pitched a great game, and there wasn't a lot of offense coming from any part of the order. It would be ridiculous to blame a single player, which makes it the perfect place to put something like this:
Aaron Rowand is one of the worst hitters against right-handed pitching in the game. Every effort should be made to sit him against any and all right-handed starting pitchers.
It wasn't all his fault the Giants didn't score today -- he didn't help, and he did a lot to hurt the offense, but he wasn't the sole reason the Giants lost today. So on a day when the entire team is shut down, it's worth it to take a step back and calmly evaluate all of the little things that added up to a dismal offensive performance.
| Split | G | PA | AB | H | 2B | 3B | HR | RBI | BB | SO | BA | OBP | SLG | OPS | BAbip |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aaron Rowand vs RHP | 71 | 227 | 214 | 54 | 7 | 2 | 7 | 25 | 7 | 52 | .252 | .288 | .402 | .689 | .301 |
Love that K/BB ratio. He has value to a team as an extra outfielder. I really do believe that. But the Giants have to realize that there are ways to maximize his value, and ways to maximize his struggles. Sometimes pitchers gonna pitch. Tim Hudson's having a great year. And it's not as if the replacement for Rowand -- either Nate Schierholtz or Travis Ishikawa -- is some great talent who is unfairly banished to the bench. But every little improvement to the lineup can help against a pitcher like Hudson. Hopefully, the Giants will come around on this.
Now that I've got the calm, measured response out of the way, I would just like to write this: poop, poop, fuzzy barnacles, poop, dang it, son of a horror country.

FWIW
Ishikawa’s 2009 vs RHP:

Rowands defense makes him a better option than Ishikawa, even against RHP.

Rowand sucks equally against LHP this year
Other than a few extra walks against lefties, his splits are pretty much the same.
As marty lurie just said
“Why is aaron rowand still playing?”
"The criticism was so brutal that Sabean was forced to declare, at a press conference, "I am not an idiot." Thus, the pattern of Sabean's relationship to his critics was established."
"Sabean would have to admit to his mistake"
Is the only reason I can think of.
I have a feeling Sanchez and Sandoval may run this course pretty soon, as well. I hope I’m’ wrong.
Sanchez and sandoval have at least done things worthy of praise in their time with the giants.

Sabean doesnt fill out the lineup card
That is on Bochy

Because there isn't a better option
Rowand is better than Ishi and Nate.

Not against RHP
Which is kind of what I was driving at earlier. The fact that Rowand is fairing so poorly against both LHP and RHP this year seems to indicate something bigger being wrong with him.
Since the ASB
Rowand is hitting .316/.422/.395
Players play better when they play every day. An everyday Rowand is better than Ishi or Nate, even against righties.

Better not show those post ASG stats to Sabean
He may just throw another year on Rowand’s contract based on the 40 or so ABs.
Rowand is no longer an everyday player, though. At least that’s the way I’m seeing it based on recent actions by management and the fact that they’re looking for offensive help at the OF positions. Nate really doesn’t look to have a long term future with the team and will probably fill in as a PH and late inning defensive player. I’d be surprised to see him on the roster after this year.
by that argument, I would suggest that Nate would do better if he were played every day.
And the worst part, those fukin’ douchenozzles over at the MCC get to lord this over us.
Everyday Rowand > Everyday Nate
But Nate would play better than he’s playing now with regular PT, yes.

I don't think so, when the outfield defense is taken into account.

There is more and more hint at that happening
Remember before Buster was (surprisingly) called up, they moved him to 1B, then Schulman started talking about it, then Baggs started dropping hints, the Giants offense stalled and Boom Buster was up.
Let’s see. Belt got moved to OF. then Schulman started tweeting about him. Now Baggs is dropping major props and hints at Belt promotion being “when” and not “if”.
Giants offense stalling…… humm…..

FREE POSEY IS FREE
Yes, a lot has been made of Rowand, but I’m really past the point of disappointment with him. Sandoval’s number have fallen off the cliff, and that has received a lot of mention. But FSanchez’ has been brutal – hitting .258 with no power or speed in the second spot is a real drag on the lineup. The longer we his BA slip down, down, down, the more I regret DeJesus getting hurt – he would have been a very good replacement batting second and in right.

And they didn’t exactly tie the game on a lead off base runner sac bunt and a single. The way both teams did it was in ridiculous unreal fashion and then they lost in a even worse way this is relieving.

Oh I have no problem with illegial things trust me
I just used to get extremely annoyed that I couldn’t listen to games online without MLB audio so I caved in and payed the massive 20 dollar fee. I know there’s legit streams online I just never went that far I guess but I ain’t got no problem with none of that :D.

MLB audio is a really good deal if you like listening to other baseball games
But It’s kind of a waste of money if you only listen to giants games but hey sounds like you found your savior :D.

After watching Nats broadcasts enough times...
I have to say yes…something about spending enough time around an organization and becoming emotionally invested in it, forming business associations and personal relationships with players, personnel, etc. etc…with the fact that he’s so open about how behind the org he is, it comes off as completely genuine.
That being said, there’s no place for it in the broadcast booth. Dibble is the color-commentary version of “Hawk” Harrelson

I need to stop listening to KNBR someone just called in literally in tears fumbling over words saying the giants are slipping.
"The criticism was so brutal that Sabean was forced to declare, at a press conference, "I am not an idiot." Thus, the pattern of Sabean's relationship to his critics was established."
They were probably even saying it over telegraph

Zito was just saving his good pitching for the years when the rest of the team would be good too.

Do you hear the call a few hours ago when somebody accused them of tanking tonight?
"I AIN'T HAVIN IT."
Yeah
And saying they “quit against billy wagner”. Uh they didn’t quit against billy wagner torres took 4 balls in a row and the umpire called the final 3 pitches strikes and they weren’t even close. The umpire I guess thought billy wagner needed help and called every pitch a strike so he could celebrate in the braves booth with his buddies without having to wait.
"The criticism was so brutal that Sabean was forced to declare, at a press conference, "I am not an idiot." Thus, the pattern of Sabean's relationship to his critics was established."
You really think he was filthy?
Torres took 4 pitches in a row from him that were not close and the umpire called the final 3 pitches strikes as if to say “This is the braves game and if you want to win it you gotta hit the ball”.
"The criticism was so brutal that Sabean was forced to declare, at a press conference, "I am not an idiot." Thus, the pattern of Sabean's relationship to his critics was established."
Yeah he did
He made some good pitches there but the calls against huff after that were nearly as bullshit as the ones to torres. I’m all for a friendly corner strike or something a little off the plate but this was some yankees esque well off the plate “strikes”.
"The criticism was so brutal that Sabean was forced to declare, at a press conference, "I am not an idiot." Thus, the pattern of Sabean's relationship to his critics was established."
Stuff wise, he was pretty dirty
The pitches to Torres looked like pitches that could go either way.
"I AIN'T HAVIN IT."
Casilla throws hard to
Regardless the pitches to torres were not strikes and the called 3rd strike to huff was downright atrocious.

I was just thinking this
This series is really getting me excited for that potential first-round playoff series against Atlanta, how about you?
That would be an incredible series in October.
Hudson vs. Lincecum
Hanson vs. Cain
Jurrjens vs. Zito or Sanchez
Lowe vs. Sanchez or Zito, or Hudson/Lincecum again
That would be great fun to watch.
"Based on stereotypes that are totally untrue and I do not agree with, you would maybe-not be a very good driver..."
"Oh man am I a woman?!"
I imagine the Giants would move Sanchez to the pen for the playoffs
do you think the Braves would move Lowe (back) to the pen?

I would hope so, but I doubt Bobby would move a veteran into the ‘pen like that. Assuming we could do it with off-days, I’d go with Hudson/Hanson/Jurrjens in a 5-game series, but we’d probably use Lowe in a 7-game series or if the off days didn’t really work out.

Rowand actually has a pretty mild LHP/RHP split for his career. Freddy Sanchez, for example, is a much worse hitter against RHP. Renteria might be, too (but obviously, unlike Rowand, they don’t have any lefty hitters who could replace them). Schierholtz would be better, but Rowand isn’t that bad against RHP.
I was promised lasagna.
