Giants Rotation from here on out

lincecumania — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 19:59:16 -0000

Based on today's transaction and Lincecum's start being pushed back until Thursday. The Giants will have off days to play around with, so it change.

The great thing about it is that the Giants will throw their best three against the Rockies again. The other possible storyline is Penny seeking revenge on the Bums twice.

Introducing Waldis Joaquin

No doubt Joaquin's fastball was nasty last night.

Giants All-Stars

lincecumania — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 22:45:11 -0000

So I was thinking about this today, and as of now, I would say the Giants could have three participants in the all-star game.

Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum are shoe-ins at this point. But Bengie could actually sneak in as a back-up catcher. He is fifth in voting behind his brother Yadier, McCann, Kendall, and Ruiz. However, McCann and Ruiz are not even statisically qualified based on playing time as of right now.

Nonetheless, Bengie is1st in HR's and RBI's for a catcher (qualified or unqualified), and 2nd for BA and OPS (qualified). I think his competition is McCann at this point.

What does everyone think?
