    5-1. This is awesome. I'm so excited about this years team. Pablo is officially on board following his break out game against the Braves today. If Huff and DeRosa can make significant contributions to the offense as the season goes on I see us winning the West. I'm going to see the boys play those LA fucks at Dodger Stadium next weekend.(Pray for me) Here's to sweeping Pittsburgh.

    Man, well worth the 4 hour wait today to get the game in ... it's a mess here in the city, can't believe they found a window to play that game.

    Other than the no-doubt bomb he gave up to McCann (that thing was c-r-u-s-h-e-d), Lincecum looked fantastic. So funny that there was talk about his reduced fastball velocity, when it's his change and breaking ball that do so much of the work. It doesn't matter if he's thrwing 96-97 or 92-93 ... he's still amazing.

    We were at opening day on Friday - my first trip to AT&T. What a gorgeous ballpark. And even though Sanchez wasn't exactly great, the game ended up just fine. We spent way too much money at the dugout store yesterday (I'm hoping there's a Lincecum jersey for me for my birthday on Thursday - or perhaps tickets to the Dodger/Giants series this weekend) and then drove back to LA thinking we'd listen to the game on the radio - instead we got to watch it when we got home because of the rain delay.

    Don't worry, it's not like you're a visiting fan at a Raiders game. :lol:

    He says he considered it his first 3 homer day. Even though it was really the inside-the-parker, a double and a flyout, he said he can't hit it ANY harder or better. PacBell - where homers go to die.

    Lincecum beats the Doggers with his arm and his Bat. I really like that kids style.

    That was pretty insane today.

    Despite the loss ... for the love of Juan Marichal, is Barry Zito really going to be this good again?

    Still rates up with one of the worst signings in the history of baseball ... but, has he finally turned that corner?

    I don't think you can say he's the worst signing. Most overpaid maybe, but worst signing no.

    He has been solid since the second half of last season. The Giants just flat out don't score runs. They need a huge bat that can guarantee 35+ homers to be competitive.

    It's not run support that is Zito's problem. While he was good late last year, he's 31 - 45 entering this year with an ERA close to 5 over his three years with the Giants.

    That's not a lot of bang for the buck when you sign the guy to a 7 year $126M contract!

    You can argue about Mike Hampton all you want ... but so far, the worst contract, yes probably ever, is Zito's.

    Tough one with Romo. I dont know much about him yet, as long as he doesnt start dating a Simpson girl I'll give him a chance to do well in Black and Orange.

    deja vu all over again. I've tried to defend Sabean for years, but the makeup of this offense is pathetic.

    2 weeks in first and a free fall from here.
