The San Francisco Giants are one (really difficult) series closer to fans being able to scream THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT! But first they must face the hardcore Philadelphia Phillies. While they wait, [...]

Third time’s a charm.

The San Diego Padres clawed and scraped their way to the final game of the regular season, but were shut out 3-0 by the National League West-winning San Francisco Giants, who successfully avoided a Game 163 playoff.
Jonathan Sanchez pitched his team back [...]

You know that phrase “It was over before it started?” Well, that is how I felt when the San Francisco Giants faced off against the San Diego Padres in Game 1 of their crucial four-game series last night in San Diego.

The Giants ripped the Padres 7-3 last night to draw within one game of the Padres in the NL West. I

UPDATE: June 29, 2010. Interleague play is over. Once again, the AL dominated (134-118), which they have done for 6 out of the last 7 years. As regards the contenders, some notes first, especially in light of the uneven level of difficulty in the interleague schedule:

* BOSTON: Probably had the best result for a team with a difficult schedule (5 of their 6 series were against teams over [...]

It was a close call, but the San Francisco Giants and Tim Lincecum have reached a preliminary agreement on a $23 million, two-year contract. This is pretty great news for Timmy, but even better news for fantasy owners since the righty phenom can finally concentrate on his skills to pay the bills, rather than how he’s going to pay for all that sweet ganja the bills.

Happy New Year to all. We’re getting so close to spring training I can smell it. only 90+ days to Opening Day! The Hot Stove isn’t done yet either. Bay’s physical has passed, so, it’s a done deal basically. The official announcemnet should be coming. Interesting note with football and baseball, Florida Gator senior WR [...]

He went [...]

They should sign Barry Bonds. Heres why: Bonds brings a proven potent bat to the line up. He’ll put asses in the seats. The Pirates would get national attention. People will buy Pirates jerseys, and the players that are playing well will be recognized…see Freddie Sanchez!! The Pirates would make money… More money than they are now. Mr Nutting likes money. He likes attention-he’ll love Barry! Sure, they would take some negativity from it, but the upside outweighs the downside. Mr Nutting, get Barry on the phone, get him on a plan and get him in a Pirates uniform.
