Maybe we need to "shut him down" like Washington is going to do with Strasburg. Just kidding.<br />I've been to 2 games at Wrigley. I liked it. It sure seems old, especially under the stands, where the hot dogs are sold.Brother Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18162500140573910451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-71803423099048702382012-09-01T08:27:22.148-07:002012-09-01T08:27:22.148-07:00Xavier Nady in the lineup.

It seems the opposite of my sentiments became reality. Soriano said he would refuse to be traded to the Giants, so he is the last guy I want to beat us. He is a bit like Bengi Molina with greater athletic skills. If you pitch him with garbage off the plate he will usually swing and find a way to make an out. If you put the ball over the plate to this guy, he will tear the cover off the ball. The western division used to be on to Bengie, but several of his trips to the east and the central divisions ended up in great stats for Bengie. I would think, why are these teams stupid enough to throw strikes to Bengie, he will get himself out if you just throw him garbage. Why did it take the league so long to figure out that Aaron Rowand could not hit a slider, no way no how. Since Bumgarner tossed that 123 pitch game, he has not been the same. Posey is our superstar, but can he ever tag a guy out trying to score? I know we do not want him to get hurt, but he cannot even hold the ball during his feeble attempts at swipe tags. Two of those runs should have been unearned for Bumgarner. The lads had a long flight and a early day game after a night game. Yet the tired Buster Posey had 3 hits. If only Belts long fly ball would have gone 10 feet further. Timmy needs to do what he has been unable to do for most of the season, and that is step up, and throw a real Lincecum game. How many pitches will it take Timmy to get through the first 3 innings tomorrow? And, do not let Soriano beat you. He is now added to my list, (Soriano that is) to my most disliked players. nomisnalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08297640472949764321noreply@blogger.com
