that last year was not representative of his true abilities. That is the only thing that makes sense to me since they have a pretty favorable contract with him.

I'm ready for Torres to be simply a late inning defensive replacement
and possibly a 3rd or 4th pinch hitting option from the left side only. Sorry to say it, but let’s just thank God that he had a career year when we needed it most.

Not about the game
but I have to rant, did anybody else hear that dumbass who marty laurie interviewed today. The guy who thought we should take Vogelsong out of the starting rotation for while to maintain his velocity. And then he said to keep playing Huff because there was “no way” we’d win another world series without him in the lineup. What an asshole, yea lets take our because he might be worse later. I’m sure the Phillies should take Halliday out of their rotation because they are scared he won’t be ready for the playoffs. How does an moron like that collect a paycheck for writing about baseball!

A tenor and alto. My neck seriously hurts after playing. I have friends who play the clarinet, and to be perfectly honest…I always thought the two instruments sounded similar. The sax just has a more solid sound

Early saxophones did indeed seek to build on the sound produced by clarinets. I marched with a bass clarinet through most of high school, and it was a literal pain in the neck.
Wouldn’t trade it for the world, though.

I may misunderstand — there was only one person in each of those sections?

Trumpet section was huge.
First, second and third trumpets. I think three chairs for first, and a half-dozen each for second and third. Last chair third trumpet was the lone female.
Clarinets, we had around a half-dozen total, but only one was male.

Okay, I see what you’re saying now. I was one of two male clarinetists. Then when I switched to bass clarinet, I was the only one, period.
TheLetter2: East Coast Boogaloo
Right.
We had a ton of male saxophonists, but only the one clarinetist. It was weird.
Had one tuba player, and I swear, it was like how cars sometimes resemble their owners. If you would’ve taken a band photo with no instruments, you’d have pegged him as the tuba player right off.

Watching Torres' throwing error on replay makes me more pissed at Crawford
Crawford was the cuttoff man and hadn’t lined up correctly between Torres and 3rd base. Torres’ throw wasn’t that far at all from hitting Crawford, but Crawford didn’t cut it off, so it wasn’t lined up to go to Panda.
The thong is, it happened.
Whatever….. I think the hot weather makes them lose their minds. Good thing the playoffs are in October.
Giants still have to go to Atlanta and Miami.

No. I’d planned on going to the August 18 game, but I’m flying out for the Bay Area the next morning. I’m not making an eight-hour round trip to Atlanta just to drive three hours to Nashville the next day. No sir.

For the meet up at the park
Is there a designated spot to buy tickets at or will there be a spot in the park to meet at?
Rally Jerry!
Meet up is usually at Zeke’s. Not sure about this year.

This is probably a stupid question
But what is Zeke’s? A bar?

Alright, so we all meet back here tomorrow morning for hard liquor and laughs
I’ll bring the circus music
So Beltran told Panda to hit a HR the other way and he did?
Dividends!!!!

would that increase his WAR rating by a point?

We haven't lost a series in a very long time
more depressing than seeing MadBum lay an egg today is the thought of having Zeets on the mound tomorrow trying to prevent the sweep.

it’s like the moment he walked into the clubhouse, all the stank that follows the Giants offense just glommed onto him. Give him a game or two and he’ll be hitting into 4-3 ground outs on a regular basis.

yep
the only people who seem to realize it are those of us who see this shit every day. “Beltran? oh yes, the dude is toolsy, has it all, will make all of the Giants hitters better.” And the first series in the lineup we lose the series for the first time since Oakland.

Meet the new 3 hitter, same as the old 3 hitter.
My big fellows, my Giants!
If you want to be in first place, say Bye, Bye Baby!
I’m liking the Keppinger pick-up more every day though. He can hit.

I don't see Cabrera making us that much better.
Much rather see a move for an every day catcher….but as we know, they don’t grow on trees. Any move at this point should not include any more top 5 prospects.
