Leaving Ross in RF wasn’t Bochy...

For a game where we got to watch Jonathan Sanchez carve up the Rockies for eight innings, that was one terrible game to sit in the stands and watch last night. Terrible offense, several head-scratching managerial moves, poor defense and a huge letdown at the end. In all, it led to the third-worst Giants...

Just another normal summer day in San Fr...

They’re all like this, aren’t they? Just another standard hot August day and night here in the city! Where baseballs soar from the yard in the evening like the stars shooting over our head through clear skies at night. Next to the gigantic full moon… I’m not into astrology (don’t...

Can we end this “batting second, B...

Forget In-N-Out and Alka Seltzer; the best cure for a hangover is actually a bunch of multiple-hit games throughout the lineup. Another remedy is the kind of pitching performance everyone around here can’t wait to take for granted, but have actually been pretty rare from the Giants’ first...

Alright Sabean, prove me wrong again...

Remember back when Brian Sabean’s trades took everyone by surprise? I had no idea Matt Williams was on the block in 1997, or that the Giants were going to deal Darryl Hamilton to the Rockies for Ellis Burks (quietly one of the best trades the Giants have ever made) or send Armando Rios and Ryan...

I wish I could criticize Sabean…...

I really, really do. Ever since sports talk radio changed the way we talk, whine, yell and bitch about sports, criticism is the only real way to get your point across anymore. Ask anybody who’s making a good living in this crazy business. If you talk about how great everything is all the time,...

5 questions facing the Giants...

After the first couple months of the season, it’s pretty clear we know all we need to know about the San Francisco Giants. At times they look like the slowest, oldest team in baseball, then over Memorial Day Weekend the main image we all had was Andres Torres and Freddy Sanchez sprinting around...

Giants aren’t unlucky, they’...

Now that the San Francisco Giants’ offense has been exposed for the house of cards we all hoped it wasn’t but were pretty sure it was before the season started, we’re back to square one. Which means everyone panics, throws up their hands and offers a bunch of insane ideas that make...

Wedding reception sports talk, a traditi...

What a busy weekend. Loads of baseball, a wildly interesting and comically entertaining Masters, and last but not least, my buddy Mac got married (congrats, duder). That last occurrence led to a couple things: a certain someone I know got too hung over to sit through yesterday’s rain delay, meaning...

A’s vs. Giants, position by positi...

One team says there’s “magic inside,” and the other team, well, they have pretty funny commercials (sigh). Regardless, the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland A’s tell their respective stories in wildly different ways. One is a big money, big media team in a nice stadium, and...

Mike Leach isn’t a fan of the born...

The good-ol’ boys at Texas Tech are probably doing a boot-scoot boogie over the Mike Leach videos that orangebloods.com bestowed to the world this morning, uncensored videos that show the recently-canned coach giving his players hell in the locker room. Leach hits a variety of subjects, not least...
