yea as already stated, doug melvin just pushed his chips into the middle of the table. get ready for the next few months gang. it's going to be a wild ride.
you unload gamel for just about any decent SS that gets dangled in front of you. there was a higher regard for matt laporta at the time of the cc trade and i think we know how that has turned/will turn out. gamel doesn't have superstar potential so i doubt we'll be able to land an elite, but i'm fine with just scooping up an above average regular. of course i'm all for going broke in 2011. with that said, the current squad can't win a pennant with yuni at ss.
I am 100% not worried about Zack Greinke. He has been really unlucky in his starts, but the team has been very lucky that he has a solid record to show for it. I think that bodes very well for the next three months.
will be going on wednesday now. i was originally going to buy outside the stadium before game time, but scored some decent tickets from a friend in section 208. should be a fun series!
Madison Bumgarner became the first pitcher in the live-ball era to allow 9 hits in a game without getting at least 2 outs. Bumgarner faced ten Twins: single, double, single, double, single, double, single, double, K (Carl Pavano), double.
