It looks like Adam LaRoche will be in the orange and black. Of course, whether it’s the Giants or the Orioles is anyone’s guess. Reports are that LaRoche turned down an offer of 2 years/$17 million from the Giants, and no other team besides those two odd bedfellows are even halfway interested...

OK Sabes, which old outfielder will it be?

Now that the Giants have added Juan Uribe and Mark DeRosa to Bruce Bochy’s Swiss Army infield, where the only thing that doesn’t change from day to day is the sight of Edgar Renteria reminding all of us that we’re all going to see a day when we get old and our range sinks far below...

Odd man out: Renteria or IshiGarko?
Posted by Bay Area Sports Guy in Brian Sabean, Bruce Bochy, Duane Kuiper, Edgar Renteria, Eugenio Velez, Fred Lewis, Juan Uribe, Pablo Sandoval, Randy Winn, Ryan Garko, San Francisco Giants, Travis Ishikawa on 09 5th, 2009 | No Comments
Odd man out: Renteria or IshiGarko?...
Freddy Sanchez will be back either tomorrow or Monday, and not a moment too soon. The Giants could explode for 10 runs today on national television against Yovani Gallardo, but that doesn’t erase the fact that they’ve scored 5 runs in the first 4 games of their current road trip. The lineup...

It’s a world of turmoil around here these days, in the form of missing, mediocre and inevitable transactions. Let’s take a look, shall we? First a warning: these links aren’t for the faint of heart…or are things really not that bad? See for yourself:

What the Giants’ lineup should be

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...

Bochy’s veteran love went too far tonight

Bochy’s veteran love went too far ...
Nate Schierholtz was eligible to come off the disabled list today. He wasn’t activated. In fact, Bruce Bochy said during the world famous “Bruce Bochy Show” that it was no big whoop, because Schierholtz wouldn’t have even started today, because the Dodgers’ starting pitcher...

On the strength of great young pitching, a recent power surge and an unfathomable hot streak from their speedy backup outfielder who a few weeks ago was a borderline Major Leaguer at best, we’ve seen the local squad play pretty well since the All-Star Break. But enough about the A’s. A baseball...

No place like (Tim Lincecum’s) home

Yeah, I know: real original headline. Sorry, nothing else comes to mind. Seeing the Giants play this way at home reminds me of the first time I went to AT&T (then Pac Bell) Park. I was with my buddy Carp, back when we lived in Eureka and going to a Giants game was a BIG DEAL. And this wasn’t...

Aaron Rowand obviously reads BASG

Before my week-long tour of Southern California, I declared that Aaron Rowand’s contract was actually even worse than Barry Zito’s. That was mostly due to Zito losing 2-1 in San Diego, in part because Rowand struck out in feeble fashion as a pinch-hitter in the ninth inning. Then I sort of...
