Open Gameday Thread, 9/2

by Grant on Sep 2, 2007 9:53 AM PDT in News Comment 120 comments

"Sure, we'd like to get them some playing time to show their skills," Bochy said when asked if younger players will get more time in September. But he added, "We still have some goals here. We want to finish strong and, it may be a little lofty, but getting to .500. Crazier things have happened as far as making some noise this late."

The Giants are 62-74. To be .500, they must finish 19-7.

*rubs eyes*

*blinks a couple of times*

*opens mouth to say something*

*thinks better of it*

You have to be kidding me. I never thought about what it would be like to have a manager who was completely focused on the short term. It kind of stinks. He's managing this lineup as if he's retiring after the season.

Also, every year Tom Tango compiles a fan-based defensive scouting report for every team in baseball. He needs people/nerds like us to fill in our own subjective scouting report. Go, and give Pedro his moment in the sun. For all of the grief the man gets around these parts, he is one of the better fielding third basemen I've seen in a long time.

actually the homerun last night gave them a 1-0 lead in the fifth inning, so it was fairly clutch. Pedro didn't know at the time that Bochy was planning on eventually bringing Scott Atchison into the game.

Re: So we are Showcasing Zito for winter trade?

I would hope that anyone talking about trading Zito would be doing so in jest. He has a complete no trade, he makes too much money for any team to want him, and he's pitching too well right now for the Giants to consider eating part of the contract to get rid of him. He might be the most untradeable player in baseball.

This from a closet(ed) Dodger fan.

Your retort , sir.

Bonds would have caught that

Wilson = prototypical closer

Can't pitch in a tie.

Bochy: grounded until he stops hitting and running with slow runners and crappy hitters

Strikeouts are boring. Besides that, they're fascist. Not boring: Emmanuel Burriss. Not facist: THE RETURN OF SF Dugout

The Nationals are where the Giants need to be: They can score two runs.

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 9/2

good news: barry zito continuing to pitch well. 1.55 ERA over his last 4 starts.

more good news: the season is almost over.

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 9/2

Although perhaps it's not insignificant the Frandsen, Ortmeier, and Davis accounted for 2/3 of the team's total production at the plate.

That other 1/3? Rich Aurilia. He's like Chuck Norris, except kinda crappy.

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 9/2

it's insignificant to Bochy, though. Look for the old guys again tomorrow.

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 9/2

Oh, I absolutely expect to see the old guys in again tomorrow. Like I said at the beginning of the thread, today was nothing mor than the patented "Barry's not in the lineup" lineup.

Re: Open Gameday Thread, 9/2

With his recent hot streak Zito's overall season line is pretty much what I expected it to be.
