So there's this kid Patrick Schuster in Florida. He goes to Mitchell High.

He's thrown four consecutive no-hitters. His streak started April 3rd, and he has 60 K's in that span. Oh, also he's a lefthander. He had 17 strikeouts in his last game.

Pretty insane stuff, I'm guessing. Anybody know of video or more info about him? I've got this link (opens in new window) but that's it.

Okay, they didn't exactly specify that, but come on.

This could wind up being an interesting way to shore up revenue, but I doubt people are going to like hearing that the games actually worth watching at the park will cost more money.

Then again, if the reverse is true and the crappy matchups are cheaper, then I've got no complaints. It's very much a "you get what you pay for" mentality.

Sorry if this had already been brought up...

This is probably the truest representation of the majority of Giants fans' mindset this season.

Our offense blows. Our pitching is amazing. There is a bat available. He carries with him some baggage remarkably similar to that of Bonds. Should we take it?

And you may find yourself sitting with your bags all packed
And you may find yourself on another bus headed to Fresno
And you may find yourself in front of the kids instead of the men
And you may find yourself on a small field, with a small amount of talent
And you may ask yourself-Well...How did I get here?

Letting the days go by/Don't send Tim Lincecum down
Letting the days go by/Don't you send him out of town
Even the bullpen/once Russ's rehab's done
Once in a lifetime/Lincecum must stick around.

And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that right field brick?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my home field!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my home team!

Letting the days go by/Don't send Tim Lincecum down
Letting the days go by/Don't you ship him out of town
Into the bullpen/or maybe trading Morris
Once in a lifetime/Lincecum must stick around

Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...

Bullpen dissolving...and starter removing
There's our offense at the bottom of the ocean
Help our offense at the bottom of the ocean
Send Barry Zito to the bottom of the ocean!

Letting the days go by/Don't send Tim Lincecum down
Letting the days go by/Don't you ship him out of town
Into the bullpen/and a setup role for Mando
We will throw rocks and stones/we'll drive Sabean out of town

Letting the days go by/Don't send Tim Lincecum down
Letting the days go by/Don't you ship him out of town
Don't make that move again/This kid must be starting
Once in a lifetime/Lincecum must stick around

Sabean, you may ask yourself,
What is that move going to do?
And you may ask yourself
Where does that highway go?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right?...Am I wrong?
And you may tell yourself
MY GOD!...WHAT HAVE I DONE?

Letting the days go by/Don't send Tim Lincecum down
Letting the days go by/Don't you ship him out of town
Even in the bullpen/and a setup role for Mando
Or else we'll throw rocks and stones/we'll drive Sabean out of town

Letting the days go by/Don't send Tim Lincecum down
Letting the days go by/Don't you ship him out of town
We'll kill the Blue Crew again/but not if Russ is starting
Once in a lifetime/Lincecum must stick around

Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...

(I felt...inspired. :P)
