Magic Number...The Giants are SIX games up!!<br /><br />SIX!!<br /><br />Magic Number is 15, my friends, 15. They've got three weeks to get it done and get everyone ready and healthy for the post-season.<br /><br />I feel good.<br /><br />M.C.

By enhancing our bullpen, our starters can go shorter for a few games, and maybe get their mojo back. As far as Sandoval goes. I think he prepares and works very hard. The guy is a very good ballplayer. He should get out of his slump soon, and hit like blazing meteor. Not worried. The guy is a gamer. He has certainly been more selective at the plate this year than previously. He has struggled through some injuries but he will be back. Don't let the weight bias fool you. nomisnalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08297640472949764321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-36513925393684679062012-09-11T09:22:54.076-07:002012-09-11T09:22:54.076-07:00Vogelsong's loss of reliability is a major con...Vogelsong's loss of reliability is a major concern, combined with a similar drop in the quality of Bumgarner's pitching. Let's hope it's just some variety of mental fatigue which will go away when the playoffs start.<br />And the little guy with the long hair has been improving recently.

His 2011 offensive numbers & improved defensive play tell the ENTIRE story.<br /><br />By the way, that wasn't the rant ... just a teaser.<br /><br />Also, Mark, I am scared by statements such as 'the Dodgers seem to have conceded the division'. They obviously aren't & never would. For one thing, the way that Atlanta & St. Louis are playing, winning the division may be their only route to the post-season.<br /><br />Keep up the pressure, Giants!!!!! If we keep beating the weak teams, we're there.Ronnoreply@blogger.com
