I'd rather have Uribe everyday, but because of the money I'm hoping they try every other day. I appreciate what Renteria did early on, but he's probably going to lose more games than he helps win.

I know what you are saying about the money thing, but honestly, thats an excuse that I really never understood.  I get the fact that they have invested money in this guy, but if playing him hurts your team more than sitting him, why play him?!?  Would you rather waste 9 million dollars on a guy who sits on your bench or waste 9 million dollars on a guy who will cost you games if he plays?  Thats what I though......I just dont understand why owners/gms/coaches dont think that.

oh trust me, they do....the reason why they will never make the necessary changes is because their job is on the line, and benching an overpaid vet like renteria is admitting to the owners that you made a mistake in offering said player a bloated contract. And if you need any more proof to how deep a GM like Sabean will go to hide his mistake, just go back to the off season and the whole situation with Sanchez.

The Dodgers pitching was pathetic. Haeger is tough to watch.

I already changed my fantasy baseball team name to Big Time Timmy Jim.

Maybe next time you get a Lincecum autograph, you should ask him to sign it "Big Time Timmy Jim."

 

[livemyreality]

Good to see the Giants bounce back from last night's loss.

I hope the Giants don't lose any hitting with Rowand and DeRosa out...

In regards to Wellemeyer. I really hope the Giants are beginning to evaluate this guy. Two starts and he's hasn't been up to par.

Standing O for Big Time Timmy Jim being 3-0 and having 3 RBI's. Haha.

 

[patrickcakes]

Wellemeyer will probably get a few more chances to blow up before he gets replaced for the fifth spot. Bumgarner has been pitching horrible in Fresno (something has to be wrong with him). Pucetas looks like nothing special. Maybe Joe Martinez?

This @%$@ ing game was HARD to watch, in person on top of everything else

I have never seen or HEARD so many Giants fans in LA. Dudes represented this afternoon.

Bats were raking, and once the hitters are dialed in on a knuckler, it's game over.

I had to fight the urges to stay through all 9

Can someone remind me again why we got rid of Rajai Davis?

[h1]Giants' Rowand headed to DL on Sunday[/h1]
LOS ANGELES -- San Francisco Giants center fielder Aaron Rowand will be placed on the 15-day disabled list with two small fractures in his left cheek and a mild concussion after he was hit with a fastball by Dodgers right-hander Vicente Padilla.

Manager Bruce Bochy said after Saturday's 9-0 win against Los Angeles that Rowand will go on the DL Sunday.

Infielder Matt Downs will be recalled from Triple-A Fresno to fill Rowand's roster spot.

Rowand was hit in the face in the fifth inning of Friday night's 10-8 loss, when the ball struck the side of his helmet as he turned to get out of the way. He never lost consciousness and was able to leave the field under his own power before he was taken to a hospital for a CT scan.

Yeah, you had Lewis, Schierholtz, Bowker, and Ortmeier as home grown guys right there filling up spots.   It was pretty easy to let Rajai go. I don't mind it too much, since the A's tend to make the most out of these types of guys, and hindsight is 20/20. 

Remember that we got Rajai for Matt Morris, and he was essentially a throw-in as the Giants were dying to get rid of Morris.
