GAMEBALL and JERK..... 05/23 GIANTS at MARLINS
GAMEBALL and JERK
05/23 GIANTS at MARLINS
GAMEBALL
ZITO
Well Well Well…. Captain 126 is off the schnied
Good god its been such a long time coming…..I think I started to feel sorry for him…….
As we read the press about how he has turned it around since he was put in the bullpen, we get the feeling that this ugly duckling is transforming itself into a swan……
Well, one can definitely see a change in Zito but it is more along the lines of a transformation from a steaming pile of dogshit……to a dried out lump of fertilizer……
Yes, Zito is likely cooked as a top flight pitcher….and as a medocrire overpaid starter…..he is in the EXACT WRONG PLACE, as not only
do the Giants offer him NO SUPPORT…..he works against the backdrop of a cadre of hard throwing cheap young starting pitching…….Christ….once Correia gets back….one could effectively argue that Zito is the 6th best starter on the team….
But anyways,……good job battling Zito and lets hope the Marlins are fooled by your performance in South Florida and are willing to pickup 1/2 your salary……..
W-L__G__IP__ERA___RATIO__HR/9__K/9__BB/9___IP/G
0-6___6_28.6__7.53____1.953___1.26___3.5___4.7____4.7
1-2___4_22.3__3.22____1.612___0.80___6.5___5.2____5.5
TIP OF THE CAP
"HEART OF THE ORDER"
3-4-5 is the traditional heart of the order.,….and the miscast vets came through tonight
staking Zito to an early lead and then continuing to pile on
CASTILLO…..
Castillo has a career high OPS, and don't look now…I think he is finding a comfort level with the glove……will never be Feliz……but has the ability ot be above average
JERK
FLORIDA FANS
1st place !@#$ team, playing a power packed brand of baseball… and they barely draw anyone????
Its HOT and MUGGY……..well !@#$, there is A LOT worse weather to go see a baseball game……ask a !@#$ Giants fan…..even with the lovely ATT, many of us would kill for a couple of warm nights having a couple of cool brews…….
And even if the environment is uncomfortable,. your team has brought you TWO rings and is perpetually on its way to another city……good god, get out there and show some support ……
And what I don't get is such poor attendance amongst a demographics that would seem to support baseball well……..
Christ Florida is full of retirees from the Northeast and immigrants/ descendants of Caribbeaners…….
Retirees have time and money to spend and grew up when baseball was king…..
Caribbean is one of the few places on the planet where baseball can compete with Futbol
SMACK OF THE STICK
SABEAN
You got the win, but again….not a single !@#$ rookie in the lineup…….
God I can't wait for the uproar when we get this lineup….and be sure we will
Man, that’s pretty good lineup……in 2002……
