…. No defense
Finally, after three solid starts by Lincecum, Sanchez and Cain, Zito gives us his standard, just good enough to lose routine. Ten seconds after the offense bails him out, Runzler follows up with a cover-your-eyes-awful inning, and the Giants start the season losing three of four to the hated Dodgers.
Sigh.

Well post,I think about it, that after four consecutive years of fighting a futile and mortifying battle in public culminating in my ouster from eventual World Series winning team for general choke-artistry, I would look at the millions I already had banked, and not even bat an eyelash at the millions yet to be paid.

john,
im sure you are busy
but its time for you to admit that defense matters
this is the worst giants defensive team in maybe 20 years
they are less than pathetic…and the record proves it
John’s post will be relevant every time Zito’s spot comes up in the rotation. He won’t have to post again until Zito’s contract runs out.
Fucking BRILLIANT!
We’re gonna have to find some big ass slab of marble to carve Lincecum’s name on.

Miggy’s first-pitch swinging
At a pitch a foot inside and a foot off the ground.
After two 4 pitch walks.
Just horrible baseball.
God damn it. Wearing Giants gear makes me look like a late coming poser now. Everybody was wearing a Giants cap on Thursday. In Monterey for god’s sake.
I am absolutely going to wear a Cleveland Indians cap today. They’ve got a better record anyway. God damn it.
I just can’t imagine what I would think if I were in Zito’s shoes.
Talk about some internal conflict.
I am pretty sure at the age of 32, knowing that I had enough screw-you money to last me the rest of my mortal life I would be gone.
The more I think about it, that after four consecutive years of fighting a futile and mortifying battle in public culminating in my ouster from eventual World Series winning team for general choke-artistry, I would look at the millions I already had banked, and not even bat an eyelash at the millions yet to be paid.
I wouldn’t have thought that at the age of 32 however. He’s still young enough and foolish enough to think the trade-off is worth it.
Nice legacy. “Barry Zito” “Financial Tumor”
Screw the Dodgers and the beaters who hospitalized a fan in the parking lot on opening day.
btw john
the giants outhomered the bums…6-1 in the series
how does that jibe with your belief that teams need the long ball to win?
just curious
Uncle Joe,
Did you notice the Giants expected record is 3-1 and the Dodgers, of course, is 1-3.
These things will even out over the course of a season. So far, the offense looks pretty damn good, and so does the pitching.
Let’s wait a month before we start decrying the state of affairs.
i aint decrying anything…just pointing out the importance of d…even average d…which they only had in one game…the blowout
the bums are not gonna be a good team this year
kershaw is their rotation
they have no bench
their pen sux and that fat man is gonna implode…you could already see signs in the first series…he cannot get the fast ball by anyone, and the slider is a joke
giants played tight….but they gotta have good d….maybe not in the regular season…but we saw how important d is for the post
john,
for some blasted reason, known only to the pumpkinheaded sage, a defensive move was not made in the 7th
the bums do not have a strong pen…ergo, the best offensive team does not need to be in the field
however, after the 7th, you must put out your best defensive team….and bochy left nate on the bench
does that fly ball go over nate’s head? i think not
would runzler had pitched differently with no men on base? i think so
in their rush to get belt to the bigs…the brain trust made one significant error…the kid has basically only played at first his entire pro career
this despite the knowledge that he has the quickness, arm and smarts to play in a corner of position
had he been sent to fresno, he couldve spent a month or two, splitting time between first and the of
now…that really isnt an option
so without ross…they are in a pickle
even when ross comes back..they are in a pickle
cuz by the looks of this d…losing nate, will be a huge blow
let us be honest…huff and burrell are here for their bats
bats will get you to the post….pitching and d win get you deep into the post
miggs is still a caribean hacker…its hilarious
the dodgers, if they dont go bankrupt first, are gonna implode sometime near midseason….that pen is a joke, and that fat man is not gonna be able to impersonate a closer for much longer….he cannot get pitches by anyone, and crawls up into a shell after giving up big knocks
i knew it was gonna be hard for the team to start on the road…especially at la and sd
hey, it is what it is
what i do like, is that they now have the offense to get back into games like this….makes things fun
Crazy – Dodgers walk three (including walking in a run) and Miggy’s first-pitch swinging. Does Bochy not have a ‘take’ sign? And can we afford two unreconstructed hackers in the lineup – Miggy and Panda? Didn’t work last year when it was first Panda and Bengie, then Panda and Uribe. One dude who absolutely will never ever never work a walk in you lineup is survivable. Not two.
only four games, but
tejada 17ab 2r 4h 0bb 0Ks 1xbh(2b)
sandoval 12ab 2r 4h 0bb 4Ks 1xbh(hr)
while the rookie has four walks in 17 appearances.
It certainly was an ugly loss to S.D. I continue to wonder about Sherholtz playin’ right, Huff at first, and Belt in Fresno. Everything about the ugliness is pretty evident.
GO GIANTS!!!
