BARRY ZITO RUMORS & GOSSIP
Zito looks like old struggling self
After two innings, the San Francisco Giants trailed 8-0. The game in Milwaukee virtually ended there. They lost 8-5. Is Barry Zito back to his old ways? Zito pitched a clunker in a season he's been surprisingly good. Does the fan base take Wednesday's performance as a blip on the screen? Or the beginning of more struggles for the left-handed pitcher? Zito walked three...

Brewers jump on Zito early, beat Giants

Zito of 2012 vs. Zito of 2011 vs. Zito of 2002
Voumas/AP
The Giants best pitcher ever, Barry Zito, has just thrown in his seventh start of the 2012 season, and has done surprisingly well so far.
How well? Giants fans haven’t booed him off the mound yet (and that tells ya somethin’!).
But just for fun, let’s do a blind comparison of his first seven starts this season, as well as 2011 and 2002 when he was the...

What the heck is Barry Zito throwing?
Barry Zito has had good stretches before. As recently as 2010 he strung together four starts in May which were even better than the four he made this April. So, what follows should not be mistaken as a declaration of renewed trust in the One-Hundred Million Dollar Enigma. I’ll declare a Barry Zito “renaissance” around the same time Ryan Theriot wins a batting title...

Barry Zito Solid, Giants Improve to .500
When Barry Zito loaded the bases in the first inning, then subsequently allowed a two-run single to Neil Walker, it was looking like Monday’s Zito was all but history.

Barry Zito’s Golden Goose Eggs
Barry Zito was terrible at pitching. He probably still will be bad at pitching. But today was marvelous. The Rockies are still asking when the game starts.
9 IP, 4 H, 0 BB…0 BB
When the Giants starters gave up 14 ER in over 15 IP, it looked like Coors Field was the last place the Giants would want to be. It turned out to be how they got off the schnide…schneid…snide...
