That was Hinshaw, but he didn’t play that day.

by QuakeFan on Aug 27, 2011 8:17 PM PDT up reply actions  

My guess is the timing element of the rules have to do with notifying the league office.

And the fact that the announcement took longer last time had to do with notifying the player before the press – not because the actual move hadn’t been made.

by DodgerFanInPackerLand on Aug 27, 2011 8:17 PM PDT up reply actions  

Now, it could be a Fresno guy sitting on the bench, and they aren’t going to tell him until the game’s over.

by QuakeFan on Aug 27, 2011 8:20 PM PDT up reply actions  

For Surkamp to legally play, somebody needed to be removed from the 40-man, put on the 60-day or DFA’d before the Giants game started. If a Fresno player were DFA’d, he couldn’t legally play for the Grizzlies after 6:05 pm.

by QuakeFan on Aug 27, 2011 8:15 PM PDT up reply actions  

What if he’s not “playing”, but sitting in the dugout and they just don’t want to yank him out in the middle of the game.

I think there are rules regarding who's allowed to be in the dugout during a game.

If you’re not a member of the staff or legally on the roster, you = not allowed to be there.

Perhaps

I think the issue of what constitutes “the same thing” needs to be defined, as it’s very hard to do the same thing over and over in any situation; as well as defining what the “results are.”

In the case of the die, is it a matter of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, or is it a matter of finding the successful number for your objective (say, not landing on owned property in Monopoly) which is only, for example, 5.

In that sense

Each season is also result.

If you score 500 runs per 162 games, there’s a good chance you might score 520 runs, or 492 runs, the next season. Results are not necessarily one specific occurrence. In the women and rejection analogy, all it is is a matter of yes or no.

With baseball lineups, there’s a ton of possible outcomes, that in large enough sample, do not differ substantially (say 4.2 or 4.3 runs per game in season to season). But you can most definitely sort them into good, average, or SF Giants. If this lineup were to continue hitting like it is, it would be insanity to not try and change the inputs (SS, 2B, CF, and catcher in this instance).

That is cray-z.

if you don’t want those guys to play, they cannot be on the team with Bochy as manager. He is going to play them constantly.

This implies that Bochy is incapable of independent thought.

Well

Last time i checked he DOES need to play 8 and he DOES have to have pinch hitters etc. Not a whole lot of good options.

When you lose your best hitter in May, one of your better hitters in June and when every single guy you counted on going into the season save one has failed miseralby, I fail to see how that is on the manager.

Taking out Pablo Sandoval for Orlando Cabrera is in fact on the manager.

I would first start by firing Hensley. What is the definition of insanity?

I don’t care if it is Hensley’s fault or not, he doesn’t swing the bat so clearly it is 99% on the players, but it looks like Hensley is just the broken record and the hitters aren’t listening. Time to shake things up and bring in a hardass, a Don Baylor, Matt Williams, Kirk Gibson type that will get the attention of these overpaid prima donas. What do we have to lose at this point? Just fire Hensley, pay him the balance of his $350K contract. Time to make the change.

LOL Belt
In a move that wasn’t much of a surprise, outfielder Nate Schierholtz was placed on the disabled list with a hairline fracture in his right foot. After wearing a walking boot this past week in hopes that his injury would improve enough to avoid the D.L., Schierholtz ran some sprints and hit off a tee Friday without the boot.
“It didn’t go as well as I’d hoped for,” Schierholtz said. “It was still pretty sore, and we felt like if I played on it, it would take more time to heal.”

Schierholtz, who was replaced by Saturday’s starting pitcher Eric Surkamp on the roster, will be eligible to return Sept. 6.

“This is a tough one because he was probably our most productive outfielder,” manager Bruce Bochy said

So how then is this team supposed to score?

They have no power. They don’t hit with RISP. They don’t string hits together and they don’t walk. So you have no flipping choice but to try to move runners etc.

FWIW – Bochy agrees with you. It is not his style to run a lot. He generally plays for big innings etc.

This team has to play little ball. They can’t score any other way.

How does an appeal work? They go to the base with the ball and touch it.

They need to appeal immediately, before everyone leaves the field.

by non sequitur on Aug 27, 2011 9:14 PM PDT up reply actions  

It’s not an Instant Replay thing. The appeal over an alleged missed bag I believe is a very long-standing practice. Before the next pitch, the defense just tags the base and appeals to the umpire, and the umpire either shakes his head and signals safe (99.9% of the time) or else agrees and signals an out.

by non sequitur on Aug 27, 2011 9:13 PM PDT up reply actions
