Unit hits DL, but at least Pablo Sandoval’s healthy

Unit hits DL, but at least Pablo Sandova...
It was about as depressing a scene as you can imagine. After 36 hours on a windy houseboat, and a 4th of July without fireworks, we tiredly drug our sunburned bodies into a 2006 Honda Accord that could have doubled as a hot air popcorn popper. Good and bad news on the radio — the Giants had followed...

The Giants offense is Ruining Barry Zito...
Today’s start by Barry Zito may have given the Giants the wakeup call they needed.Today Zito went five innings, giving up two runs, five hits and two walks. He struck out five, a season high. Not quite a quality start, but for Zito it marked his best performance of 2008.  It also marked his...

Zito Will be a Starter Again Very Soon...
Imagine if the Giants had traded Tim Lincecum to Toronto for Alex Rios. That indeed was the rumor at the general managers meetings a few months ago, one that would have been disastrous had it come to fruition. This little bullpen experiment with Barry Zito, where he’s supposedly going to learn...

Nobody Ever Said Leaders Have to be Fast...
All last offseason, the prevailing wisdom was with Barry Bonds moving to Beverly Hills permanently (or at least until his federal trial for perjury), the Giants would become Omar Vizquel’s team. Even forgetting that having a leader older than 40 is an ominous sign for any team that doesn’t...

Jon Miller for Giants Manager!!!...
The last thing I heard before walking on BART was Jon Miller doing what he might do best: throwing subtle digs at someone while on the radio.It was the first inning of the Giants/D-Backs game, and Ray Durham was on first base. Aaron Rowand hit a single, and Durham must have jogged to second base slower...

I’ll Happily Work While the Young ...
Work helped me out big-time today. Sure, I’m working towards a paycheck and all that, but today the assistance from my job was more sanity-related. Due to our cable-free workspace and constant iTunes blaring every second of the day, I wasn’t subjected to the Giants and their 13-4 loss to...

Old People: Good for Baseball, Bad for F...
As is often the case these days, old guys have ruled the recent sporting landscape. The oldest of all was 60-year-old Billy Crystal, who parlayed his broad shoulders and quick hand-eye coordination into a one-day role with the Yankees a couple days ago as a leadoff hitter. Actually, Crystal showed more...
