Just for the FFFFFFFFFFF of it…….

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on July 23, 2010

I thought I’d throw up a new thread. Nothing to say. Baha. After almost nailing the score cold last night I thought I would again put in writing my bet (I never bet against the Giants but I almost always post when and what I do bet on their games): went with the under. I also did a 3 team parlay Giants/Mets/A’s. I’m awful at parlays but I play them anyways 🙂

So what’s the O/U on Dirrrrty’s strike out total tonight? I’ll say he gets 6……

What was the over/under tonight? I think runs are going to be scored…
- delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:34 pm
  
  9
  - giant head said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:46 pm
    
    pretty high…tough bet. I still think we may score 5-6 runs…
giant head said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:31 pm

I like Dirty with 8 strikeouts with this horrid D-Head lineup…
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:33 pm

I’ll give Dirty two more and make it an 8-Ball, or 8-Strikeouts in this case.

8 easy with Reynolds good for a Sombero.
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:40 pm

Wow, 8. I could see it. I don’t think this Lu is gonna do much but Edwina is a total crapshoot. I’m guessing he pitches all right tonight but who knows
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:46 pm

Huff the Magic Dragon #18. Been awhile. Nice.
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:47 pm

36-11 when scoring first. Courtesy of the Huffster, we have a chance to make it 37.
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:53 pm

“ownage” is dumb, overrated and k/k obsess on it way too much. 10-15 at bats doesn’t bean anything. Maybe the hitter caught the pitcher when he was hot. Maybe it was the other way around. Kuip just harped about ownage that Johnson had on dirrrrrrrty. What about the 1-13 huff had v Edwina?
twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 6:58 pm

Amazing thing with Dirty is almost every game you can see in just one inning why you love him and why he drives you nutso
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:04 pm

More like that first inning and we may have a reprise of the Shootout at the OK Corral. Different town. Same state.
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:09 pm

Vern and Vera should have never been allowed to procreate.
giant head said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:09 pm

awful at bats there from Nate and Whitecant…
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:10 pm

Maybe we could get him to just stand there and take pitches every at bat till he’s either walked or he strikes out
- wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:12 pm
  
  ya the K would’ve been better. Gets dirty out of the way…
- James said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:12 pm
  
  Against Jackson, it might not be a bad strategy for a few of the Giants.
giant head said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:10 pm

and F’n Padres won…
giant head said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:12 pm

Nate should have been trying to move them over, even a grounball to the right side. Should have been runners on second and third one out, Whitecant at least cant hit into a force DP….ground ball from him may have scored a run…
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:12 pm

El Presidente: Also responsible for Janchez leading off the third. Why not Holm? Giants did have Ronnie Paulino for about 24 hours, trading him off for a sack of used jockstraps.
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:13 pm

Whitey sux but he’s in a weird spot. Every time he subs fir posey he’s got the weight of living up to what posey would do at the plate. It’s also possible that his overall suckitude has finally kicked in. Anyway, he needs to go. Asap. Phantom injury his ass if u have to. Whitey can’t keep destroying our offense when he plays….
twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:20 pm

As I said when he WAS hitting, his short term success was the worst fucking thing that could have happened. They really did have a better shot there if they had Nate try to bunt the guys over and see if AZ pitched to Eli.
- wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:25 pm
  
  They wudda
  - twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:26 pm
    
    Well, at least no DP and Sanchez bats then instead of leading off.
- wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:30 pm
  
  Nate was his best shot to score that inning tho…if he bunts him, he surrendered scoring chance.
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:20 pm

Classic dumb “ownage” stat: snyder is 3 for 11 with a bomb agianst dirrrrty. Not bad. But 7 fucking k’s? WTF does it mean? Nothing! We’re talking about 11 at bats!!!!!!
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:24 pm

I’m glad kruk hasn’t been spending any time “educating” us on why/when/how Freddy sanchez is gonna one day remind us dumb giants fans of Robby Thompson….
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:25 pm

If Sabean doesn’t pull off another move during the next few days, the least he can do is to pick up a backup catcher for when Buster needs a day off. Man! That LU sure looks hollow without the presence of Posey.
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:27 pm

That masterpiece of an at-bat by Whitey resulted in DP #100 on the yr. BTW…
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:34 pm

Probably gonna go over 6 ks for dirrrrrrrrrt tonight…
Bozo said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:40 pm

Sorry Flav, I’m one that thinks that Franchez is going to be a huge spark as we move into the games that get more meaningful (I know they all are but…).

The Prez not so much, but Jesus needs a rest every five days or so.
wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:41 pm

how bout that
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:47 pm

Travis sure has turned around his road ABs this season. Depending on his actual splits Bochy should give him plenty of opportunities.
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 7:49 pm

Ya know, if Sabean does not go out and get Willingham of someone similar for the two-hole, Travis might not be the worst possible option. Franchez is far more likely to get it together, IMHO, where he’s not expected to move up the runner.
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Clown. I’m down but he’s gonna have to figger out how to hit the ball more than 200 feet if he’s gonna lead that charge….
twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:01 pm

They won’t put Travis in the 2…
Speculation that they’re showcasing Nate and Travis but just as much it can be giving them a chance to show why they SHOULDN’T trade them. With Belt in the wings, Travis has probably quelled any talk for a 1st baseman. Nate, not so much. Solid defense, but still just not grabbing his chance.
Craig said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:04 pm

Kirk Gibson looks younger now than he did in 1988. That’s incrdible….
I like whitey better batting with no one on base
alleykat said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:08 pm

You know Holm is no better then Whitey.In fact i think he’s worse.Whitey’s not going anywhere.Especially after they gave him a TV special with Sanchez on Gmag.2 guys from totally opposite backgrounds,work together and get no hitter.
3bagger said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:14 pm

Is Lincecum stoned?
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:21 pm

Drrrrty’s hitting a wall against the wrong part of the lineup. The Giants LU tonight just has not done enough against Jackson. Again, w.o. Buster, they look busted.
wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:26 pm

wow..incredible
3bagger said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:27 pm

Defibrillator please.
twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:30 pm

Holm is a better hiitter than Whitey..
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd just your standard 35 pitch shut out inning….
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:30 pm

Maybe we should change the nickname from Drrrrty to Houdini. How he slipped outta that jam was beyond me. Heart of the lineup, no less. Unbefrogginlievable.
alleykat said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:30 pm

God this game is so slow paced.I thought we were in a rain delay.Til i realized the roof was closed.
3bagger said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:31 pm

Huff!!!
wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:31 pm

AH..another multi HR game
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:31 pm

4 innings from the pen tonight? Did we trade for that “Loogy” yet?

Typical Dirty outing, you look up and wonder how the hell he’s only allowed the one run.
Franchez sucks. Can Tim Alderson play second and hit? We know he can’t pitch.

Huff X 2!
Macdog said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:33 pm

2 dingers, just for the HUFFFFFFFFFFF of it!
bigflavor said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:33 pm

He pitched well to get out of that. But he was pitching against the D-backs. And they completely helped him get out of that. I swear to God, if Gibson managed them for a few years he wouldn’t look like ageless anymore……
alleykat said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:34 pm

Well Paulino would have been better then both.
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:36 pm

NOW, do you see why i call the dude Huff the Magic Dragon? RBI #56 (my magic number) . If Laroche had gone with Sabean’s offer we might have been stuck with that stiff instead. Aubrey is also hovering around a .350 RP/AB ratio. No Posey tonight so Huff had to improvise. He’s not really that far behind Prince Fielder in dingers.
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:37 pm

Henry and Baggs said Huff had a TERRIBLE BP. Was quoted as saying, “I’m going to go 0-for-4 with 4 Ks.”

So much for batting practice as an indicator. Have another shitty session tomorrow, AH.
wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:40 pm

AH has a blog now on Giants.com….
DJLoo said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:42 pm

Hello from the gutters of NYC…
- delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:52 pm
  
  Is that really you, Loo? Made it back for opening day at the Spa, good timing.
  Welcome back!
alleykat said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:45 pm

DJ Loo !!!! Welcome back from Shutter Island!!!!! How are you?
James said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:50 pm

Writing off LaRoche’s season may a bit premature. He usually has a good second half.

That was for DJ Loo.
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:53 pm

Loo’s been here two fucking minutes and he’s already jinxed us. Jack Ruby!
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 8:54 pm

I think we could use a “Roogy” to go along with our yet to be acquired “Loogy.”
Goddamn walks.
alleykat said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:00 pm

Shit we should of left Sanchez in.So what if throws 188 pitches and walks 10 with 18 K’s.He still wins 3-1.
DJLoo said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:03 pm

As you may remember Denny, Secretariat was 0-3 in my presence…
- delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:15 pm
  
  Lemme guess. Wood Memorial, the Woodward and the Onion race?
  - DJLoo said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:36 pm
    
    Wasn’t there for Onion. It was a DQ (Maybe the Champagne?). They put up Stop The Music.
DJLoo said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:07 pm

Ruby was 1-1.
3bagger said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:08 pm

Holy shit.
wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:08 pm

We’ll take that!!
mrmrbill said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:09 pm

pretty bunt, velez!
3bagger said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:10 pm

Fuck yeah El Torro!
wswinb4igo said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:11 pm

Vungo!!!!
Billy said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:11 pm

Torres… continuing to be the man. On another note Velez looks like he’s starting to turn himself into a quality bunter, something he’s needed to add to his game for a while with those wheels.
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:11 pm

How ’bout that motherfucking shit. Crooked number. Loo can stay.
Billy said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:12 pm

…he put another beaty down the first base line just the other day… not too long ago he was fairly useless at that facet of the game.
twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:12 pm

I just hate it when these guys put down those coincidental sac bunts…
mrmrbill said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:14 pm

Torres – just amazing, just when ya need it.
twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:17 pm

If the MVP is the guy who contributes the most in every facet of the game, it’s Torres and second place is far back…
alleykat said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:17 pm

Doesn’t hurt when Jackson can’t throw a ball anywhere near 1st base.
Billy said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:18 pm

Twin I think you’re forgetting Buster in that statement. The guy is looking all around superb.
3bagger said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:19 pm

Craig, did you bet the under?
Billy said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:20 pm

…not to take anything away from Eli. He sure can call a good game.
stixwiz said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:22 pm

This Norberto has some weird stats: ERA 8.53; WHIP 2.21; BAA 1.82. Ten walks in just over 6 IP.
alleykat said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:23 pm

Not sure if Panda could possibly have a more shittier AB.
JBat said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:24 pm

Wow. Runner on third no one out and they don’t get him in.
twinfan said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:25 pm

“Twin I think you’re forgetting Buster in that statement” He’s 3rd or 4th still but gaining ground…
delmardennis said, on July 23, 2010 at 9:26 pm

I know I shouldn’t be bitching after we just scored three to take the lead, but they yet may need that fourth left stranded at third. Hold the goddamn lead bullpen!
