“What if We’d Lost that Game?????”
I can’t shake that question and can’t imagine this place if we hadn’t won that game. And yet I still don’t know how we won it. We had no chance to win. Yet when we went extra innings I was CERTAIN we were gonna win it. Doesn’t make sense, I know….
Our bullpen has quietly turned into one of the most reliable cogs on our team. 4 innings of no run ball yesterday, 3.2 innings of no run ball the day before. And it’s been EVERYONE…….
The ONLY thing I’m worried about today is that Timmy tries to hard. Just let it flow, baby. LeBlanc isn’t a chump but he’s totally beatable and Tim’s lost to a few guys like this in 2010…
Regardless, today is huge. Not a must win since we have several more games against the Padres this year, but if Timmy is going to be a part of this TODAY needs to be his day. Very few of the Pads hit him even moderately well….
A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball 
Actually, Flav, that’s totally bullshit, I’ve criticized him all year and that throw did cost one of the 5 runs. I pretend NOTHING. But I don’t make excuses for the fuck who gave up 4 of the runs and is LUCKY ( the shot to Huff), it wasn’t SIX..
Games over , Timmy giving back those Runs in the next inning or 2 . Giants just can’t bea sd and we will be missing the playoffs for a 7 straight year because of it
Padres seem to have Burrell figured out.
Ellis burks
There’s a diff between criticism and the shit Panda has endured from the Blog Potatoes. Now let’s see if Timmy Tranny can get ’em back in the dugout without more damage. ( just some of what Panda and Molina and Sanchez put up with)
How much less flack does Timmy get because of his skin color? 50%?
You need ti work on your put down nicknames. Send your compliants to k/k they’re the ones who are blind ti criticism of the guy. Nice job leaving rowand out of that list (Molina, panda and sanchez) so that you could sneak in your daily racism accusation
They can break this down all they want, burt 89MPH fast ball in the 4th inning says everything.
Face it, he looks like he’s just waiting for the final surgery.
And I was the ONLY one ragging on posey for his lazy defense yesterday in the 11th. White guys gets shit here too twin, don’t suggest otherwise…..
is timmy tranny a reference to the way his pitching has shifted?
Whomever referred to Timmy as Alanis Morissette is brilliant. Del Mar is right: get a haircut.
Two out steal of 3rd base? Not what I expected – but with your pitcher being oblivious to the threat and all the balls in the dirt, why not?
I didn’t say shit about white/black. So shut your tart hole about it.
So much for the cocksucker and a shut down inning.
You infer it all the time. white guys get all the free passes while we spend all our venom on the Hispanic guys. It’s total fucking bullshit….
Time to skip a Timmy start?
Giants’ luck to have their franchise player washed up at 26? I’m not sure you can be worse than giving up 6 to this lineup, in this park. However, this will probably make him 13-13 lifetime in August and September.
The thing that comforts me is that the Padres didn’t exactly hit the cover off the ball. I’d be more concerned if they were raking hard doubles.
And I fucking KNOW that’s why you left rowand off that list—so you could post something suggesting racism from us..
Iit cannot be denied that there is a tacit but powerful bias toward having white superstars. That’s not on you personally, Flavorette, so don’t again be so arrogant as to presume it’s directed at you. Panda had an incredible first full year, he’s an engaging, energetic, intelligent young man… yet we heard more about Posey as the “face of the franchise” this year vbefore Buster ever got a fucking hit. There is ZERO doubt that is due to the colors of their skins.
timmy’s era since bengie left is double digits.
Well, that’s the Guillen I thought they were getting.
No, Dennis, I didn’t go . . . I’m going down Wednesday to take my daughter to college. One drive odwn there a week is more than enuiff .. .
Time for a BIG fucking inning here.
Wow. Really stupid play there…………….
My god, Guillen is slow.
Time to get angry. Stomp your feet and yell something colorful out the window.
What was that?! This guy is playing RF?
Who gives a fuck, Mike? No one here is a card-carrying racist. Life ain’t fair.
Shit happens. Look at all the Panda hats.
DUMBASS Guillen
Biggest start (game) of the year for Big Time Timmy Jim and he sucks Donkey Kong for 3 and 2/3.
Motherless son of a fuck. There is something really WRONG with our reigning two-time Cy winner.
I’m not a pitching coach, but even I can see he doesn’t trust what the hell he’s doing. No confidence. One pitch will be untouchable, the next he hasn’t a clue where’s it’s going. Or the next one, or next…Get the haircut needing sumbitch some help. If not, football come early.
Way to go there, Jose. Always nice to make the first out at 3B when you’re down by four. Another fabulous pickup by Sabean. 😉
I thought he was just jogging it out since it was obviously an easy double. When he turned to corner there was just no hope. That dude is going to be our right fielder?
I didn’t catch Flannery and whether he was waving him on but real stupid whoever it was. Guillen is not a slow runner but he’s obviously fucking injured. Great.
May be time to check in on the PGA.
No wonder KC cut his stupid get thrown out at 3rd leading off the inning down by four dumb ass!!!
Guillen is slow. And by slow, I mean stupid as shit. That’s probably due to his ethnicity. Is that what you’re looking for twin? You are totally full of shit on that face of the franchise shit. Posey was ticketed for that once he was drafted 5th overall (or 6th I can’t remember). And did you not see Pablo in all our commercials this year?
Strange decision. He looked like he was limping rounding first.
Is Guillen injured? He looks slower than Posey.
Some of you worrying about a player’s hair? That’s as lame as can be.
I bet your hair isn’t that long, Nip. Tim looks ridiculous and ya know it. He looks 100x more stoopid when he’s getting shelled. Go get me some fucking ice. This game blows my friend.
need a comma there
Help me out, P. I’m guessing after maybe blows? “This game blows, my friend.”
And what is the number #1 seller at the park? The fucking panda hats!
Wow. Good night. Tip year waitresses. Try the veal…
Not watching game, so possibility exists that Flannery is worst 3rd base coach ever! We already lead the league in guys thrown out at the plate by 5 feet or more!
Jesus. I think Torrealba just rounded the bases faster than Guillen.I hope he’s just injured. Well, with Bengie gone at least we still can make some of the same tired comments.
That’s all on guillen, Dude…
Guillen isn’t injured (j don’t think). He coasted into doubles trot and then realized where it went. Then ge just fycking ran out of gas. He hasn’t been playing much lately….
He sure seemed to slow way down near 2bd base,.
Just one indignity after another .. a HR by Torrealba, who probably should have been beaned for that crap he pulled in 2004.
TF, what’s that you call Torrellba, the “Sherpa?”Well, the Sherpa hit the motherfucking sherp outta that one. The Padres own our asses. Still time to join me in prayer for their plane taking a dump.
That’s not what I saw on the replay. He was slow out the box.
What’s this shit about Guillen being possibly hurt? I didn’t hear nothin’. Did we trade for ANOTHER injured player.
Please say no. I really don’t feel like losing my top today. I’m pretty calm at the moment.
I’m not wrong, it’s just a bigger cultural issue than a guy who brags about not reading books is prepared to handle.. but just on today’s game. If they lose it is on ONE man : Tim Lincecum…
Guillen was limping the whole fucking way. That’s either his “default” run or he’s fucking hurt.
Yeah i’m with you there james. There was no rust there or not reading the ball right. He was slower than a wet week all the way around.
Look he’s 34 and he’s not fast. He ran out of gas he hasn’t played much lately. He had a bad quad, it’s possible he reinjured if but that’s not what an injured quad looks like. He was running hard, not favoring either leg, and he really ran about the same speed from first to third.
I’ll admit I only watched one replay but he didn’t look to be limping at all. He was running hard, just slow.
Lincecum stunk, and of course it’s on him … but the Gmen racked up 2 off of a weak pitcher who didn’t throw a lot of strikes.
and if Guillen is injured, why the hell did Bochy keep him in the game? It’s 7-2, seems to me to be a perfect time to bring Nate in to spell our “injured” right fielder……
I like the
-Guillien hasn’t played much and ran out of gas after 2base
-That throw was a bullet right on target
-Woulda been a run and a momentum builder otherwise.
New team nickname: The Bipolar Smokers. How can you go from yesterday’s euphoria to today’s euwphuckia?
Easy. You rally against their best pitchers one day … the next your alleged ace gets blown out and you do nothing against a stiff. No mystery.
Pawlie – remember the JT homerun against the Mets? Quickest euphoria to depression I ever had at a game.
Seems to me it’s happened a few times this yr. A big emotional win followed by a complete disaster.
allright, it’s pool time. Thank God we won yesterday. Tim did the bullpen no favors today with that horseshit performance…….
Well, biggest start of the year and we got Pat Misch. Where’s Salomón Torres when we needed him?
If Guillen wasn’t limping, he was hopping or one leg is 6 inches shorter than the other. Whatfuckingever. As I said when the trade was made: is Huff/Guiilen better than Ishikawa/Huff?
No. At least, there is no evidence that it will be going forward
The Bucs bullpen?
Or is he on the Eric Byrnes memorial beer league softball team?
Might be time for Aubrey to get a day or two, before today just .213 with 3 RBI the last couple weeks.
OK – Let’s get ten
I like your thinkin’
but this game is stinkin’
not much of a day off tomorrow (travel day) and some teams ahead that call for bochy magic with the LU rota
“Well, biggest start of the year and we got Pat Misch.”
That’s the subtitle of the book called “The History of the San Francisco Giants.”
tonight has that feel of a giants loss in the ‘classic’ style.
ouch
Well, it’s one of the more alarming losses in SF history. Watching Timmy disintegrate ranks up there.
The problem with losing to the Padres is that we were even farther back from then it looks. A loss puts the Giants 3 1/2 games back, but 5 back in the loss column. That’ll be tough making up those 5 games in the next month and a half. Plus, the Giants end the season with 3 against the Padres.
There’s a scenario where the Padres wrap up the division before the last weekend, and don’t care about those last 3 games, and that helps the Giants win the Wild Card.
Tims goin all Dontrelle Willis in a hurry.
Billy called it, Timmy has turned into the Todd. I have almost no faith in him right now. Not a good place to be when you’ve got no faith in your ace and every game is critical
So the goal now is to try and get their 5th best reliever warming up!
If Tim is lost, so are the Giants, would we all agree? What are the chances that problems are all due to slacking off the workout regimen, or other personal habits that need to be extinguished. After all, he was 13-12 in Aug-Sept in his GOOD years.
I dunno … just thinking about anything but this game and the rest of the season right now if he can’t find it.
Would we all agree? No. That’s a total fucking slam on the rest of the team
One thing is clear beyond Timmy’s meltdown is the total fritzoff of Mota. He has been horseshit a bunch lately. Whoever of Affeldt/Runzler is ready the soonest must take over from Guillermo. He doesn’t belong on a contender. Certainly not at this stage of the season.
Mentioned before going out to pick onions and do some weeding and mowing that Bochy erred in batting Guillen in the five-hole. He hadn’t earned that slot and he is a bonehead. Some of his buddies who speak the same language as their first go-round need to have a talk with him about his moves on the bases. When he plays he should be batting seventh or eighth. I do like him as the stinger in the tail.
As for Timmy, time may tell, but it looks like the team may be short an ace.
4 hits off of nothing. The Giants lose even if Tim were only mediocre.
Guillen in the 5 and absolutely nothing to do with nothing. And Mota Smota. This is about Lincecum and nothing else. They are not lost without him but it’s a big hit. Dennis is right for once: hold the little weasel down and cut his hair. We’ll go from there…
We go on the road for three each with the Phillies and Cards. Friars also hit the highway for a 4-game series with the Cubs followed by 3 with the Brew Crew.
We’re 3 1/2 GB now. That 3 1/2 could reach 6 at week’s end. Think of it as your weekly erection.
6? HAHAHAHAHAHA
Ah, Johnson blows the putt on 18th. 3 way playoff.
Very funny dennis.
I remember all the talk before the Master’s final round. Dustin Johnson was fucking immune to pressure.
Brutal for fans and the Team with no Ace. Someone else has to step up, the guy who started today goes 5th now in my eyes….
