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:

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,...

You got to hand it to the Giants’ marketing team. Not like it’s really hard to sell tickets to a Tim Lincecum game anyway, but you just know it has to warm the cockles of Larry Baer’s heart to know that approximately 650 of the 42,694 tickets sold to tonight’s game were purchased...

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...

There’s a lot of things to complain about when it comes to the San Francisco Giants, historically speaking. Just mention “complain” and “Giants” in the same sentence, and any fan’s brain will become a series of flashing mental pictures featuring Jose Cruz, Jr., Scott...

How much can the Giants get for Jonathan Sanchez now? A 36-year-old Triple-A designated hitter? A Costco box of assorted flavor sunflower seeds (mmm, BBQ)? The rights to Sammy Sosa’s 2003 drug testing sample? It’s amazing that everyone’s so ready to get rid of Sanchez, as if the rest...

That’s right, you can’t trust any of us. I’m one of them myself, a 31-year-old living in my mother’s basement. Alright, that isn’t true (as far as you know!), but apparently if you’re blogging you’re automatically stuck living at home, madly typing away in the...

In defense of Jonathan Sanchez...
First off, Jonathan Sanchez was pretty awful last night. 4 earned runs allowed in 4 innings, with 6 strikeouts overshadowed by 5 hits and 6 walks. He’s gotten a reputation for not handling adversity very well, be it a fielding error behind him, a stingy home plate umpire or the misplacement of...

There’s so many things to go over from this past weekend that my head is spinning. Or maybe it’s all the bacon-wrapped dates filled with manchego cheese I ate yesterday (thanks, Mom). Along with the copious amounts of ham I consumed during yesterday’s Easter lunch, I’d say over...

Opening Day – We Knew it was Comin...
Yesterday morning I took my bike out and cruised around the city, early enough so I wouldn’t miss the Giants face the Dodgers on Opening Day. I had baseball on the brain, and I found myself riding along the Embarcadero to AT&T Park. Once I got there, I rolled around the perimeter before turning...
