The problem with this theory is the pitching staff is so damned good that full blown tanking is probably out of the question

Krukow, it did not "stay down on him", he let the ball play him and got it between hops. But nice ass licking anyway.

On our recent trip to the Bay Area, I got a Tim Lincecum bobblehead. He now lives next to my Jon Miller bobblehead on my desk.
My two-year old daughter, who is starting to get into watching baseball with me, pointed to Jon Miller recently. “That’s baba!” she said (baba is what she calls me). Then she pointed to Lincecum. “That’s mama!”

I'm not an expert, so help me out here.
The Astros are the worst team in baseball, is that correct?

-Egdar Renteria commenting on his solo home run in the 5th inning of Game 2.
as Grant pointed out
The worst Giants team in history would be 10 games ahead of them in the standings.
Glad to have the World Series win, but still waiting on my Kim Batiste bobblehead. GET OFF YOUR HANDS, GIANTS BRASS!!!!
Adopted Giant: Dave Dravecky, starting pitcher of the greatest regular-season game I've ever attended.
The worst team in baseball is the team that starts Aubrey Huff, Mark DeRosa, Aaron Rowand, Tejada and Cabrera every fucking chance they get.

Yeah
I don’t think there is a doubt that the Giants are currently fielding the worst lineups in all of baseball.

We're stuck with the POS Huff for next year too!
The Anti-Willie Mays 1) Can’t Hit 2) Can’t Hit for Power 3) Can’t Field 4) Can’t Run 5) Can’t Throw…..Your Starting First Baseman for Life Aubrey Huff. Remember when he hit that home run in the World Series? He will milk that for 2 years.

Yes, Huff has been bad this year
But he’s been about 7th on the list of reasons that we’ve slumped. In fact, he’s hit decently during our swoon.
Now Rowand, Tejada, Scott Cousins, Lack of Belt, Trading for Orlando freaking Cabrera, those I can understand.
I'd be playing Huff and Belt at this point.
Gigante. Campeón. Pumpkin. Andrés Torres.
Dursh nerf darsh narf. Poop.
Huff will be just as bad if not worse next year.

Not sure how you can say that
Given how inconsistent he’s been throughout his career.
He is getting older and has shown no signs of improvement this year.

He was 32 and had a horrible year the year before we signed him
And he had a career year. If he’s proven anything, it’s that he’s unpredictable from year to year. He could hit 10 or 30 HRs next year, and I wouldn’t be surprised.
So if he’s on schedule to have a great year next year…what should do with Belt? Trade him?

I bought tickets for wednesdays game against the pads. Semi regretting that decision now. but timmy? at least
Yep you can watch Timmy lose 1-0 on an RBI bloop single by the opposing pitcher

I can't wait till Rowand, Tejada, and Derosa's contracts all run out.

He's pissing me off
with Belt, but really the suckitude of the Giants isn’t really on Bochy.
No, but when Aaron Fucking Rowand and Miguel Fucking Tejada are playing EVER, well, FUCK BOCHY

That's really a Sabean problem
With the walking wounded that is the current Giant bench, I’m not sure Bochy would be able to field a decent lineup.
Like I said, sitting Belt makes absolutely no sense, but other than that, meh.
That's more on Sabean
Bochy was doing a good job of limiting Tejada’s PT when Crawford was up
Bochy's also doing a great job of throttling Belt's playing time.

GAMER STRIKEOUT
The ones that bounce in front of the plate are the ones you can really put some good wood on.
This game is really grinding on my nerves now.
My adopted son, Brandon Crawford. Dude hits grand slams and plays defense.
LOL ROWAND AGAIN
When these two lineups play back-to-back, can anyone really be surprised when we get shut out twice?
