A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Baffert. Again.

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on March 26, 2022

You must appreciate the irony: in the same week that Baffert loses his Derby horse because he’s banned for supposed cheating, he wins the richest race in horse racing (12 mil) in the country with the toughest drug standards. Wow, 9-1 longshot Country Grammer upends Life Is Good. Horse racing is incredible.

    In other news from Saudi land, the Formula One race scheduled for tomorrow will go on, despite, “large plume of smoke visible from several miles away” after Houthi rebels launched missile attack on nearby oil facility.

      ah, just another Sunni/Shia spat. (The war in Yemen may be more horrible than the one in Ukraine. Hard for a average guy to know, though.)

    Belt’s injury sort of complicates things. How’s Longo feeling?

    • Bozo said, on March 26, 2022 at 12:04 pm

      Mac posted a Baggs tweet at the end of the last thread that said Longo has finger tendonitis. Like Belt, he is able to participate in training activities and will be evaluated for game participation next week.

      Saw this on Longo yesterday:

        so sick of this guy.

        Me too. Which means he’ll probably go 25/90 and get re-upped…

    Dreadful ride by Irad.
    Him and his bro outsmarted themselves…

      Live dugout interview with the engaging Grave Duggar on MLB Network at this very moment…

      • Flavor said, on March 26, 2022 at 4:31 pm

        engaging to say the least

      • willedav said, on March 26, 2022 at 4:47 pm

        And who does btw have an option left, as Baggs pointed out this AM in Athletic.
        Also said that now Ramos is on 40 man, SF can call him up/send him out as needed this season.

      • xoot said, on March 26, 2022 at 5:08 pm

        but limit of five trips now, right?

      • willedav said, on March 26, 2022 at 5:58 pm

        Yes Xoot.

    Not trying to hex them but Nova is 13-13 from FT line. For season they were over 82%, unreal.
    St.Pete’s made 19-21 vs. Purdue.

    • djloo27 said, on March 26, 2022 at 5:08 pm

      Phi Missa Tri…

    • willedav said, on March 26, 2022 at 5:18 pm

      Made 2 more and closed Cougs out.

  7. alleykat69 said, on March 26, 2022 at 6:21 pm

    Houston couldn’t hit a 3 1/20 horrible FT’s 9-15 also putrid.
    Villanova 5/21 on 3’s not great but perfect from the line 15-15 as they are I believe the top free throw shooting team in the nation.Houston shoots free throws at 66 per cent ranking like 324 in nation.That’s your game right there as Villanova was too strong down the stretch..

    OK that Samsung phone commercial with Wilson Pickett version of “Land of a Thousand Dances” takes me way back. the first line goes:
    “You gotta know how to pony/like Bony Maroni.”

    My mom (who loved to dance) had the 45 of that song, Bony Maroni. I don’t remember the melody but first line iirc screeched out by singer was “I gotta gal named Bony Maroni/she’s as skinny as a stick of macaroni.”
    Every once in a while she’d set them up on hi fi console and go dance crazy.

      Richie Valens hit.

    Giants have 7 players with NO OPTIONS left..
    Ruf Wade,GD,Garcia, Estrada,Dubon,&Beede
    First 4 are safe(yeah even GD cause he’s there best defensive Outfielder)
    Estrada has to be safe, no way the Giants lose him!
    Dubon? Maybe if they start the year with 13 pitchers.
    Beede is gone imo, he struggled in Sac, he’s been getting bombed in ST.No room for him on the pitching staff.Sayonara

    Musselman’s boys with awful last 1:19. 3 from Banchero, miss at other end, O board after miss and hoop at rim by Duke, another missed 3 and made one at buzzer. Getting killed in the paint. Notae (who took 29 shots last game making 9) had 3 hoops in first 8 minutes and is still stuck there.

      Thanks man that was fantastic. Got all those other hits in there too in lyrics. Same guy that did Bony Maroney.
