GAMEBALL

MOLINA

The ageless slug of a man known as Bengie Molina…..the forgotten unwanted free agent of the 06-07 offseason……has been nothing less than a GODSEND for the punchless Giants…..now at age 34 Bengie's is solid behind the plate and his bat is better than ever….and that’s AFTER logging 134 and 145 games ….BOTH CAREER HIGHS….
Tonight Bengie stole the show, First with an RBI TRIPLE you could have clocked with a SUNDIAL…..and then Bengie piled on with a rainbow shot into the seats …..and then in the 8th he answered the Dodger Rally with a 2 out RBI single ……..
So don't think Posey at Catcher will be a panacea for the Giants offense, in fact……make sure this kid logs some time at 3rd……He's got the arm, he's got the glove, and you won't have to worry about 3rd for a long time…….
You can have a 2010 lineup with……
Lewis LF
Renteria SS
Sandoval 1B
Molina C
Posey 3B
Schierholtz RF
Rowand CF
Burriss/ Franny 2B

Sure it ain't murder's row…..but is Ishikawa washes out…take Molina and Winn out of the lineup…..and the Giants are hard pressed to score 1 run a night….

TIP OF THE CAP :
RENTERIA
Ripping line drives all over the field….funny thing about being overpaid…….you produce and people seem to forget you are overpaid……..(see Winn, Randy)

URIBE
Couple knocks, and a couple solid, but unspectacular plays at 3rd…….certainly not the best fielder…..but on that DP in the 8th….once I saw the ball hit to him…..I knew he would make the right choice…..THROW TO 1st

TIMMY
Timmy being Timmy…..not spectacular…..but hey…..we're spoiled at this point……Once you saw 3 runs on the board, you know that the Giants were going to hold the lead as long as Tim was on the mound……

NATE
Nothing like some good leftie on leftie action…..

TEAM
BEAT LA……good job…….take a series from the Dodgers……you GOTTA love it………


JOKER

SCHMIDT

Was a good Giant……WAS…..now he is just a overpaid has been in blue struggling to break 88 on the gun……
Part of me wants to feel bad about Jason's early demise…..but then I remember he's fucking Dodger and I just start giggling……
Don't worry Jason, when you get out of that Sickening Blue Uni, we will like you once more……that is, as long as you don't pull a Kent or Butler quote out of your ass
(hey, it can't be Bochy EVERY night……)

SMACK OF THE STICK :
Dodger Starters……
Honestley, I am thinking I overestimated the Dodger starting staff……and so did Colletti…..
Billingsley…….solid solid solid…..I say about even with Cain
After that?????
Kershaw……Lincecum like Potential…..but a high school pick…not sure if he's there yet
Kuroda….unspectacular, but good……and on the shelf
Wolf……..a Sabermetric tease…….
#5???? hey….29 teams have a hole here…….McDonald…not impressed
So what do they have?
1 starter and 4 question marks……..if this holds up over the year……we might have a race….
Colleti is kicking himself for not getting the Unit…
QUICK….NED…..trade a bunch of prospects for Ian Snell!!!
