Giants vs. Braves: quieting the haters...
The Giants are the hottest team in baseball right and … what’s that I hear? I that the sound of haters picking apart the team? Well, of course it is. Until the Giants finally win a World Series, the complaints will always drown out the praise (and let’s face it, even if they do win...

Giants turn clock back to 1993

Giants turn clock back to 1993...
Back in the days before humidors and dinosaur mascots — hell, back before the days of Coors Field, playing the Rockies used to be fun. Relaxing, even. An opposing team traveling to Denver back in the Rockies’ first year of existence (back when the most important thing to everyone wasn’t...

Weekend Roundup: Part 2: Buster Posey’s “nickname”

Weekend Roundup: Part 2: Buster Posey...
Marty Lurie is a Godsend on the weekends. Last night’s traffic jam we slogged through would have been downright impossible to handle without him. And I know that if you’re on the radio for 10 hours a day, you need to come up with topics. That said, stop trying to come up with nicknames for...

The best game and Tim Lincecum pitch of the year
Posted by Bay Area Sports Guy in Aaron Rowand, Bruce Bochy, Buster Posey, Don Mattingly, Jeremy Affeldt, Los Angeles Dodgers, Matt Kemp, Mike Krukow, Pablo Sandoval, San Francisco Giants, Tim Lincecum on 07 20th, 2010 | 3 Comments
The best game and Tim Lincecum pitch of ...
It all started when Tim Lincecum decided that if he wasn’t going to get the win, or even have much of a chance of seeing the sixth inning, he was going to still make his mark. The mark would be circular, about 3.5 inches in diameter, preferably with two distinct lines of stitches, and hopefully...

All is not lost: Bengie Molina traded

All is not lost: Bengie Molina traded...
You knew after their last 5 games and 9 of their last 12, Brian Sabean had to do something. After all, if the team stays this stagnant on their marathon road trip going into the All-Star break, the Giants can kiss the idea of selling 3 million tickets this season goodbye. Oh, they’ll also have...

So, did Nellie get the record?

So, did Nellie get the record?...
It was like the entire sport of basketball was exhausted today. Can’t blame it really, after last night’s crazy, wonderful, awful, disappointing loss for Butler. So the Warriors followed up their Lifetime Original Win on Sunday versus Toronto with an 18-point loss to the Wizards. Not after...

LaRoche would actually make the Giants halfway decent

LaRoche would actually make the Giants h...
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...

Spending other people’s money

Spending other people’s money...
It’s almost a relief that the Brian Sabean didn’t dive into free agency from the start with the same vigor as a child who sees one of those giant inflatable bouncer things for the first time. He did that last year, and ended up going 1-for-4 on his veteran spending spree, as Sabean turned...

I don’t practice Renteria…...
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,...

Giants’ magic number is now 6

Giants’ magic number is now 6...
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...
