[Mr. Enigma]

I would be absolutely shocked if Stanton and Ricky Nolasco were still Marlins after the trade deadline.

 

[Brashnir]

He hit 30 playing in that big ass ball park in Miami. I'm sure there's other teams that are willing to offer more than The Mets.

37! And he missed almost a quarter of the season.

The guy is a monster.

 

[Opiate]

Likely landing places by your estimation? What team is likely to be competitive, has a good farm system and a hole in the outfield?

 

[Jack Scofield]

These Cubs fans are obnoxious.

 

[Brashnir]

On the one hand, the marlins have this tendency to unload and build, unload and build. But I think they'd be nuts to get rid of Stanton.

(Doesn't mean they're not nuts, but that's the kind of trade that haunts you for a generation.)

 

[endresults]

Fuck Bud Selig for refusing to meet with the mayor of San Jose. You piece of shit.

I thought you were an Oakland guy.

If Jack Z really is feeling some heat from the front office, I could totally see him offering the Justin Upton package to the Marlins for Stanton.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

I thought you were an Oakland guy.

He is. San Jose is Giants territory. A's want to move.

 

[Blearth]

Fuck Bud Selig for refusing to meet with the mayor of San Jose. You piece of shit.

You and I both know that San Jose doesn't deserve a Major League Baseball team.

It's a real crap city.

 

[see5harp]

Damn Giants are putting up so many runs these days. Are they really going to come back from 5 down?

 

[Brashnir]

You and I both know that San Jose doesn't deserve a Major League Baseball team.

yeah but so is Oakland.

 

[Blearth]

yeah but so is Oakland.

There are some cool parts of Oakland. There are no cool parts of San Jose.

 

[Brashnir]

There are some cool parts of Oakland. There are no cool parts of San Jose.

Baseball stadiums have been known to create cool parts in cities. The area around Camden Yards was the most deadly ghetto in America before they stuck a baseball stadium there. Now it's the coolest part of Baltimore.

I don't know if that would work in San Jose.

As soon as you enter Silicon Valley you feel an overwhelming tidal wave of boring that even a baseball stadium can't overcome.

Haven't really spent any time there, so I guess I'll defer to you.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Dammit Cubs.

 

[cashman]

Likely landing places by your estimation? What team is likely to be competitive, has a good farm system and a hole in the outfield?

The Rangers.

 

[tekumseh]

As a Dodger fan, I never thought I'd be able to say that Carl Crawford was the steal of that huge deal with the RS. Josh Beckett, on the other hand...UGH...

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Josh Beckett should be tossed in the nearest trash can outside of the stadium.

 

[Sanjuro]

As a Dodger fan, I never thought I'd be able to say that Carl Crawford was the steal of that huge deal with the RS. Josh Beckett, on the other hand...UGH...

Beckett was the primary reason for pulling the trigger on the deal.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Romo time!

 

[Blearth]

Romo time!

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

6 k's per walk since 2008 for Romo. Career Whip is .87. I love Romo

 

[dubc35]

The SF Giants broadcast mic is surrounded by drunk Cubs bros.

Uh oh.

GOO GOO GAH GAH BABY BOY!

 

[lazybones18]

Almost had it

 

[dubc35]

That would have been a big out.

 

[lazybones18]

Not even close

 

[see5harp]

Damn....Romo. Nearly there...

 

[Dominican Power]

A what a shitty AB by Castro.

 

[Blearth]

STRIKE THREE CALLED! GIANTS WIN FOURTH STRAIGHT!

I hereby change my NL Cy Young prediction to Sergio Romo!

 

[lazybones18]

Game over

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

BOOM! 6/6

Uh oh.

Its never easy.

 

[see5harp]

Cot damn Romo is good right now.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Dammit Cubs. You had one job.

 

[Blearth]

Dammit Cubs. You had one job.

All who have attempted to take down the Giants have failed*. Why would you believe the Cubs had a shot?

Except Scott Cousins

Anything can happen in the wide world of baseball. Anything.

 

[jakncoke]

Gerrit Cole was bounced from his second start of the season due to an elevated pitch count. Cole threw 63 pitches in two innings, with 42 strikes. He left his last outing after four innings, leaving early due to a high pitch count in the fourth frame. In either case, he’s not helping people who are arguing that he should be in the majors today.

definitely got to get that pitch count under control

Yay, <3 Giants so far this year. Now if Only get my name up as a giants fan on

Someone should really put up a new image of current MLB-Gaffers.

I've been waiting for awhile as well. I think Sanjuro would rather burn in hell than update it.

I love how Manos is still on the one in the OP.

Your probably right, I've been asking at least once a season since 2010 or earlier and it just doesn't happen. Oh wells.

 

[CygnusXS]

Likely landing places by your estimation? What team is likely to be competitive, has a good farm system and a hole in the outfield?

At this point, the most likely candidates are probably the Rangers, Mariners or Mets, with the Pirates or Orioles as sleepers.

 

[G-Fex]

Meh. It's fine, I know where I stand anyway, and I think I have a idea where a couple of other people stand.

 

[Malo]

I would give up the Yankees' entire farm system for Stanton.

 

[Dominican Power]

Cano and Stanton so good.

 

[The Frankman]

Erase the Mets, there's no way they're giving up Harvey/Wheeler/D'Arnaud.
