Who else has a pitchers park then that is empty?

Giants are mid market with a rabid fanbase.

What do you mean by 'mid-market?" I think the bay metro has the 6th highest population in America.

 

[Dominican Power]

Dodgers made a trade proposal for Dempster. I like him pitching in a pitchers ball park.

 

[Insidious_Walrus]

BATFLIP! Serving up his specialty, the three-run shot!

CODY FUCKING ROSS!!!!!

CODY FUCKING ROSS!!!!!

I didn't know you were a Red Sox fan!

Our income is high and so is our spending, but you often don't get the vibe that SF is like New York or Chicago for baseball. Maybe its because the Giants were relocated in the 50's but alot of the history isn't here. It doesn't feel like it should sometimes in SF. IDK that and we get no national recognition very often makes me feel like we aren't one of the biggest markets.

Edit: The fanbase is awesome with 127 consecutive sell outs at home. We just don't get alot of recognition for being good

Cody Ross just loves jacking 3-run HRs

Lol reminds me of the time when cardinals fans thought they were small market.

But they were in the competitive balance draft lottery!!!!

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Lol reminds me of the time when cardinals fans thought they were small market.

Apparently MLB agrees since the Cards were eligible for that competitive balance lottery thing. Only their 2011 record managed to keep them (and the Rays) from getting a pick.

EDIT: too slow

It was a clutch ass HR.

Hey I'm not saying what I'm saying is valid! Its just that feel bro.

Cespedes gonna Ces.

 

[harSon]

Cespedes gonna Ces.

Still mad that they got him over the Pirates :|

 

[Malo]

Make Phelps the 5th starter.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

We got this Wild Card thang locked down.

 

[Gannd]

Cespedes is such a beast.

The Giants are a big market team. Let Oakland move to San Jose and you can downgrade the Giants.

 

[darkside31337]

So what happened with Travis Snider? Hits a homerun in the 2nd, team scores 6 runs and he gets taken out of the game before his next AB in the same inning.

Gotta be a trade or a callup. Or maybe he just had tickets to the midnight showing for The Dark Knight Rises.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Ned better get this deal done. Dempster will be a huge help for us.

Welcome to the thread

Including you brah, we got 2.5 A's fans.

I like Brad Pitt, so it's 3 now.

 

[Dominican Power]

Ibanez with the hero swings.

 

[Gannd]

The A's were lucky to get out of that inning without too much damage. They need a couple more runs, a two run lead against the Yankees isn't good enough. Hopefully, they won't leave runners on base with no outs and not score a single run.

Freddy is still pitching, I'm sure they will score some more runs.

Edit: I stand corrected. Thanks, Phelps!

They'll pull him when Crisp gets up to bat.

 

[Dominican Power]

These baseball siblings suck.

 

[Dominican Power]

When is Phelps going to be a starter

When is Phelps going to be a starter

When Girardi loses his hard on for Freddy.

You know the rules of St. Louis. We count population by only the city and include the crime of every neighboring county and then some in the crime rate. It truly is the Dark Knight of America.

 

[Malo]

The streak is still alive.

3 RUNS

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Dodgers are the front-runner for Ryan Dempster, but the Braves and Nationals are still in it.

 

[G-Fex]

Just looked up the highlights of todays game.

Wow nice hit by Ross, nice victory for the Red Sox

You can switch with your AAA team. I wouldnt mind having As in Sacramento

San Diego

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Brewers are a small market and have great numbers.

 

[Blearth]

San Diego

That's not because of the park. It's because people in San Diego do not give a single fuck about baseball.

 

[Doogdogg]

Ross has that Fenway swing, reminds me of Mike Lowell getting a career revival in Boston.

 

[Gannd]

I actually think moving to Sacramento would be good for the A's. When I lived there, it seemed to be more A's fans in Sacramento than Giants fans. I still think that San Jose would be the best move but the Giants won't allow it.

Man Cleveland so pathetic. Not only do we have the worst attendance in the league (19k at 44%), the TV ratings have dropped 24% year-over-year. All that, while the team has been battling it out in the division for 1st place. Amazing.

well it looks like you guys are finally winning on that Austin Kearns deal at least!

He's heading to Boston, but they haven't said why yet...possibly being called up because of Lawrie to the DL.

I don't understand. Jacobs field in the 90s was awesome. So many sellouts, and awesome fan support. I know they haven't been great recently, but that tv rating drop is just crazy to me.

 

[jakncoke]

Progressive is a pretty neat place. Cleveland residents are just garbage inbred retards that dont deserve shit. Move all the teams and give them to Montreal or something worse

 

[Meier]

The Dodgers problem has been hitting for years now.. particularly at the corners. Yet, the Dodgers want to throw young talent at an older pitcher in the last year of his contract?

Insanity. How is Colletti still employed?
