The Brewers/Indians series certainly has been entertaining. Down 8-4 in the bottom of the ninth, the Indians score four runs, a bases clearing double by Ryan Garko tying the game. This hasn’t been a pitching series, it’s belonged to the sluggers.

Back at the trade deadline, I wrote the following:
Forget Freddy Sanchez. I don't have a problem with average-dependent players, per se, but this one is hurt. We'll give up a top prospect, but we'll only get 107 at-bats of nothingness.
Forget Ryan Garko. He'll...

As we all know, 2009 has been a rough season. Our pitchers are injured or not very good (apologies to Phifer), our hitters are inconsistent, our manager would be on the hot seat if our GM wasn't attached to him, our GM is attached to the embattled coach, and on and on...

It's silly season for baseball. Without any games of note, the idle mind turns to rosterbation. As the offseason progresses, it becomes more complex and convoluted. It moves from "sign six players for a combined $100B," to a four-way deal that uses obscure passages...

Whatever.
The only way Doug Davis gets through even five innings is if he's facing a brainless, undisciplined lineup. Either Carney Lansford has no clue just how undisciplined the lineup is, the players don't listen to him, or hitting coaches have absolutely no effect...
Giants' Garko glad to get on the road
No Giant was happier to fly to Houston than Ryan Garko. After being traded for the first time, he had to join a new team in a new league in a different part of the country while he and his fiancee had to find a place to live. He went 2-for-16 in front of his...

Garko has been dealt to the Giants for Scott Barnes, so one of the more economical trade options for a bat is out. A decent comp for Barnes might be Kasey Kiker. Barnes, actually two months older than Kiker, is a polished Class A lefty without overwhelming stuff. Initial reports included...
