Barry Zito gets his own chant
Barry Zito gets his own chant...
“Let’s go Zito” won’t set any records for originality, but it’s the thought that counts. And who would have thought at any time in 2007, ‘08 or the first half of ‘09 that Barry Zito would have anybody chanting his name in any way other than vitriolic? He may...

Since the last two games for the Giants have been long and bitter, I’m going to make this one short and sweet…

I need something to complain about, so do you. The Giants! They swing at the first pitch all the time! F-POM! F-POM! F-POM! That new phrase? Pretty lame, sure, but it’s all I heard this morning, because I listened to Mac and Murph while driving throughout the beauty that is Northern California. Actually,...

Enough, Bruce Bochy. E-Freddy-nuff. OK, that’s not fair, since Lewis mercifully didn’t see any part of the starting lineup today. But neither did Nate Schierholtz, and I’m even more pissed than Kellen Winslow two weeks after a Nandrolone cycle. I’d feel like I was just piling...

Ah, baseball. The smell of grass, hot dogs and garlic fries in the air…and the chance to whine about Bruce Bochy’s lineup every day on Extra Baggs and McCovey Chronicles. I’ve never really done it, since I’ve never commented on Baggs’ site and most of my commentary on McCoven...

We Bay Area fans are an optimistic lot, we really are. Sure, there’s a good deal of whining that goes on, but you’d hear that in any large media market forced to deal with the volume of mediocrity we’ve been saddled with over the past 15 years. But when Michael Crabtree — only...

What did Brian Sabean expect?
What did Brian Sabean expect?...
This isn’t the first time Brian Sabean has vented publicly about the ineptitude of his players, but it might be one of the last. Yesterday, after the Giants finished off one of their weakest offensive road trips since Candlestick Park had Astroturf, Sabean was downright ageist, courtesy of Andrew...

One down, only six to go. Sometimes a man needs to stake his reputation on a completely irrational prediction, and here’s mine: if the San Francisco Giants win seven of the thirteen games they play against the Colorado Rockies, they’ll finish ahead of the Rockies in the final standings. Whether...

I think what today’s Giants game showed us was why it’s been so hard for the Giants to pull off a sweep every time they’ve had the opportunity this season. The Braves were on fire, Barry Zito was the only healthy Giants starter with the requisite four days of rest, and the Giants’...
