Great line up. Most of you have probably already seen it but I wanted to throw up a new thread. I’m going to go back and delete some of today’s comments. Cease with the personal attacks or you are gone-zo….
A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball 
Thanks for posting the line up, Flav, cuz I hadn’t seen it. Outstanding
It’s the pretty much the standard LU against most RHers lately. Pay attention.
I can still say outstanding. Just like I do after a good malted scotch. Even if I had tried it before
Why the hell aren’t Rowand and Renteria in tonight’s lineup? Best and biggest win in years and Bochy messes with the lineup.
I give up.
😉
Damn right. That sac bunt was friggin outstanding…
I was talking to Flavoro.
“Why the hell aren’t Rowand and Renteria in tonight’s lineup?”
Actually, Dennis, it’s a fair question if the LU bashing morons were consistent.
From Baggs:
One more minor league rehab start for Wellemeyer, 85-90 pitches. “Then it’s decision time,” Bochy said.
Decision time=Bye-Bye Bautista
Walkemeyer has had major control problems since he’s been with SF. There’s no way you can throw him into a pressure situation with men on base already and expect less than a disaster. How are they going to use him, other than when the game is lost, or a total laugher win? I don’t see how he’s much better than Bautista…
I’d rather have Bautista than Wellemeyer.
Twin, I’m not taking line up lessons from u. You’re the guy who completely blew the sandoval-drop and then followed that up with “well you can really just pick names out of a hat” or whatever u said that day. All I said is I like this LU. As u say, “stfu and enjoy the game”
Bautista is the choice, hands down 100 times, over Wellemeyer. Bautista has been getting the job done in major pressure situations lately. He’s wild, yes. But he’s got great stuff, better than Wellemeyer, and he’s been doing the role, something Wellemeyer hasn’t done all year. Later days, *The Todd*…….
Just cut Wellemeyer, or trade him for a sleeve of Titleists. He’s at $1million for the season, so you’re eating only $500K max even if they just DFA him, for Kreissakes…
I’ve given you near daily lessons on the LU-and don’t fuck with my posts. A fuckwad who thinks Lincecum was a key to last night’s win should best do the shutting up, pal.
Get the YogiClonefuck out of here instead of fucking with me, Flavoro.. and YOU would have Panda in Fresno right now..
Zito rules tonite…
We’re gonna trade for another arm prior to the deadline anyway. My hope is that neither Denny or “The Todd” see August.
I feel much better today. It’s been torture having to look at some of this idiocy without being able to properly dispose of the fuckwadian thinking that’s transpired. Sack up, dilwads: that terrible LU gave us the most thrilling game in half a decade. Go to B and kneel next to the 3Bagger…
Gmen have no pressure tonite. They won the series already. Just get up on ’em early, give Zito a little cushion, and put pedal to metal….
you don’t give LU lessons, you tell us all what idiots we are that we don’t love Bochy’s LU’s–then you *take credit* for them or whatever, rarely offering a prediciton but claiming some strange victory anyway. I pointed out your gaffe on the “Pablo-LU-drop” thing. I didn’t write those posts, you did. Your response was something like “well you can really just pull names out of a hat” or something like that. I don’t have to look it up, I remember it, so do all the other regulars. Just don’t sit here acting like you’re educating any of us on LU’s. At best, you just tell us all to “STFU, Bochy’s playing the percentages”……
Wellemeyer: Another ML experienced toy for Santa’s package. Toss him in with one of the three SP prospects who did very well in AA, along with one of the three spare outfielders and it should give some pitching-hungry team a hurler ready to go, another in the oven and a 4th or 5th OF, depending on whether they are looking for defense, speed or power-potential.
They screwed up dropping him to 7th, I supported the one day drop to 8th. He ain’t 7th anymore, is he? 3,4,5, I have zero issue and never did. You just do as you always do when you are at your best: listen to me and adopt my position later.
He batted down the order several games. The fact that they dropped him THE DAY you spent dozens of posts telling us all it would never happen isn’t the point. It was the “pick names out of a hat” post that sort of invalidates all this “line up education” you apparently are giving us on a daily basis…..
You have removed “pick names out of a hat” from it’s context, FlavorFuck. I warned you not to misrepresent what I post. It’s a bad habit of yours.
Obviously I was right. He struggled at the bottom of the order. As I pointed out before the break, he started having better swings even from the right side in that last week or so. You ignore that and wait for results. I can see when a guy is swinging well and success will follow. That’s why I rule here, son.
To say Lincecum played no part in the win, yet Rowand and Rent did is classic. Not quite sure I can follow that ‘logic’ there.
I just went back to find the post and it’s been deleted, or at least I couldn’t find it in the thread that we’re discussing. Oh well, as I said, all the regs remember it….
I wouldn’t have brought it up except for the constant maelstrom of posts telling us all about how we’re getting educated and that we need to be paying attention to something. To what? All you tell us is that Bochy’s playing the percentages. As YOU said, sit back, STFU, and enjoy the game……..
and stop being an asshole to people over little shit. Try ignoring a post every now and again instead of going ballistic……
Fish just capped the Rox 5-2 and the Dagos are down to their last 3 outs trailing Hotlanta by 4-2. A Zito/Giants win tonight would be monstrous huge.
Lincecum SUCKED. He hit a guy ,which SHOULD have fired the Dodgers up. He had zero part in the win unless he gave blow jobs between ABs. If you people don’t want shit, don’t be fucking stupid.
I didn’t say he was ‘awesome’, I said he contributed. Like a few others believe, either intentional or not, his ‘misfire’ helped fire up the team and using your standard argument, it ended in a win so obviously he did something right. Learn to fucking read.
GringoFuck, stay out of it. Period. You’e a fucking moron. You fucks can speculate what Tim’s throwing at Kemp MIGHT have meant. I can show you unequivocably they lose the game if Rent and Rowand don’t deliver in the ninth what they did. Now STFU.
Funny how you whine and try and get me banned for allegedly calling you out when you weren’t online (which I didn’t do for the record), yet pretty much daily you find a way to place a ‘Gringofuck’ in your posts when I’m nowhere near a computer.
Well, whatever, I think he fired up his team….. Anyone think billingsley plunks somebody? If both teams haven’t been warned ore-game then it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he throws at torres or someone early on….
Unless one gets away, I don’t see anymore plunking. I like a hr from Pablo tonight and one from either Huff or Ishi.
I’ve covered this and it’s not some petty picking on a fuckwad: that ANY fan, after last year, could suggest that delivering a sac bunt to move two runners into scoring position and to draw a walk are inconsequential or automatic;.. THAT is a motherfucking idiot. Period. End of story. Book it, Dano. And DO NOT argue, you have nowhere to go with that idiocy. So keep these people from insulting God and Mamman with this fucking nonsense and I’ll be a kinder soul. That shit should make any thinking human LIVID…
Now I’m going to watch the game without looking at the bullshit here. I’ll check later and award idiot of the night.
After today’s performance, just look in the mirror, and make the awards presentation now…
You’ll be back bashing people much before the end of the game. And if your pride won’t allow it, you’ll take it out on the Splash in the meantime.
Those 3 Dago outs were pretty costly for Atlanta. Billy Wagner coughed up a hairball in the top of the ninth and SD tied them. Rox still lost, though.
I think he plunks someone. There wasn’t any pre-game warning. Stupid
Agreed. First inning plunk is to Dodger’s advantage. If that happens, Bochy should start Rohand as pitcher under the warning, he can plunk Furcal, Rohand gets tossed, then bring in Zito… 🙂
Yeah, I know Rohand has to be on the lineup card….
Friars just tied it up in 9th – going to extras.
Barry needs to accompany Timmy on the trip to the barbershop. And the fucker walks Furcal to start tonight’s proceedings. Cut the goddamn hair.
Haha, torre looks like a doof sitting in the penalty box for this gm…..by the way Denny, you nailed it earlier this am that the umps fucked up that call. Well done, I didn’t see anyone else question it till around mid day
You sound like my dad 30 years ago, Dennis.
Torres wasn’t announced so he wasn’t an official batter.
HateTHEblake….. Zitos stuff looks good tho….ratto is somehow more annoying in these commercials than in his idiotic articles. Surprising…..
“best moment?”. That poll question is a joke. It’s BJ’s HR, hands down. Anyone that votes differently didn’t see that game
Let’s go Panda . . .
Fucking Ratto looks like he swallowed an innertube.
That thing pops, it’ll be ugly . . .
The umps didn’t fuck up the call because Torres was never announced as an official batter.
You know, Huff was just an amazing pick-up. Sorry, not really profound but the dude just keeps blowing my mind with what he’s doing and how much fun he’s having.
Oh, come on.
Fuck. Waste . . .
Yer kidding. Lee’s hurt, too??
Wonderful. They can’t get Cohan out of town fast enough . . .
Drill him . . .
With a man at 3rd and 1 out, is it possible Panda can actually minimize his goddam strike zone? Can he stop swinging at shit on his shoetops in that situation? Just for a goof once in a while…
Panda has the green light to swing at everything again. He’s been doing that all yr so I’m not sure what’s been the difference since the break. Some time in aaa would have been a good thing for him if they had done it when I suggested it—he would have been back on the beam much quicker thn the 2 fuckkng months we had to wait out this slump
Time to go yard for someone here…….
That’ll work . . .
Wasting too much shit here . . .
Either in here or in the Splash or in my local newspaper’s website, the cross-talk, or banter, or repartee or locker room towel snapping — call it what you will — leaves me cold and uninspired; bored. It draws an occasional chuckle. More often, it offends by its puerile punditry — like tossing spitballs in eighth grade. I withdraw. For some, such exchanges are quintessential to blogging or Internet chatter. So be it, for them. For me, OneFlapdown excels when it exhibits smart dialogue, raucous ribaldry, rare angles, obscure stats, personal anecdotes, inside stories, and — most of all — a community of special interests: the Giants.
I’m just here for the free doughnuts.
Fuck. Teams are hitting .282 off of this pos…what’s our problem?
2 in a row, Pawlie…..
a. I guess I was good luck for the Bucs. Keep an eye on Pedro Alvarez and Neil Walker.
b. Torre is overrated.
c. I wish the Padres had lost tonight.
d. Lots of talk about Jayson Werth. No. Last year? Yes. Not anymore.
He’s got a snappy look though, with that beard and that hair. Probably makes up for his abysmal RISP BA average, at least with the chick fans…..
My career RISP BA with chicks was better when I had a beard; it’s been pretty abysmal for decades now.
Pawlie – You had me at “raucous ribaldry”.
Let’s get some runs.
Cheers dude.
yeah, Bozo, some people will do anything for a little alliteration
Shoot Pawlie, I thought we’re here just because we liked getting called “fuckwad”…
Isn’t the Panda about due for a tatter?
he tattered more than he tatered, from what I gather; I should be in bed; sleeping
I think I’ll try tartar sauce next time.
Juan Gone is looking like he’s ready to kick some serious fucking ass.
A tatter? That reminds me of a joke from Benny Hill. A buxom blonde says a joke to Benny and he says: “Good one, you’re very clever.” And she says: “I always give tit for tat.” And Benny says: “Well, in that case…..tat!”
lovely; where’s Benny Hill when we need him in our national discourse?
He was in the national intercourse….
Tatter? LQTM . . .
That’s tater salad, Dennis , , , ,
poor Denis (oops, Dennis), taking such a hit for one measly letter. Reminds me of the absent-minded prof who wrote “The pen is mightier than the sword” but omitted a space between second and third words. Fuckwaddilwad.
Panda, two men on, swinging at first pitch shoetop shit again. Sheezus that is getting old…
Spank this fuck . . .
Zito is pitching his ass of again. Get him some damn runs.
Tartar sauce. I think that’s what SpongeBob says when he’s pissed. “Oh tartar sauce!”
Barry’s due a jack . . .
Well, at least they didn’t waste any baserunners that time. . .
Have Barry drill someone . . .
I hate tartar sauce. . .
Alright, who are the fuckwads that liked this shitty lineup?… 🙂
Huff led off the 4th with a double. Posey moved him to third with a grounder to the right side. If Panda does HIS job, it’s a tie game. Buster’s ground out would hardly be incidental to the run. It would have been crucial. Now I will close that as a “Cold Case” and we won’t revisit that again. This is SUPPOSED to be Room A…
Shoetops is Panda’s zone…
