It’s Time to Change the Waivers/Claim/Trade Rule 27 Aug 2013 | 05:55 pm
Instead of talking about the Giants sleep walking through their opening game vs the hapless Rockies, I decided to write a mini-rant about a late season ritual that’s always bothered me…. Claiming a p...
Building Future SF Teams–Does the Formula Need to Change? 26 Aug 2013 | 09:07 pm
With the Giants winning a rare weekend series and the Dodgers losing one, it got me to thinking, what will Sabean have to do going forward to build a team that can compete year in and year out with th...
Power Outage….. 25 Aug 2013 | 07:54 pm
I found this while I was cleaning up my desktop this morning. Forgot about it. And here’s how the race is currently unfolding. At least Loo nailed the superfecta, albeit if he had boxed it. But hey, ...
The Angriest of Snot Rockets 24 Aug 2013 | 07:00 pm
The way things are going, it’s possible he’s going to legally change his nickname to “IrateBum”. Maybe “InfuriatedBum”. Anyway, he got his allotment of 1 run and that dope just couldn’t do anything wi...

An Open Letter to Anyone Who Claims To Be A “Flapper”: And I’ll preface this by saying you (Flappers) are the cornerstone of the blog and the main reason why random lurkers come here every day (that’...
Are We Who We Thought We Are? 20 Aug 2013 | 06:21 pm
Last night, we were reminded of who we actually are when we don’t get to play the Marlins. A tired Boston team that should have been suffering at least a bit of a mental letdown after their gagged, em...
The Red Sox are in Town 19 Aug 2013 | 06:50 pm
I found the Merc headline rather amusing: “Giants Fail to Pick Up A Game on the Dodgers”. Indeed. Letting such a critical opportunity slip away like that will probably haunt the players throughout the...
Yasiel Puig: MVP? Lol! 18 Aug 2013 | 07:31 pm
Sadly, there is talk that Puig will get serious consideration for NL MVP. To that I say, “hogwash.” I’m not sure if Puig is even MVP on his own team. As much as I hate to admit it, Eye Goggle Boy has ...
