Wow! I wasn’t expecting that! Was it the curse of two teammates splitting votes (Carpenter and Wainwright of St. Louis)? Either way, Lord Lincecum becomes the first pitcher in history to win the Cy Young award in his first two seasons – a simply jaw dropping accomplishment...

The San Francisco Giants informed outfielder Randy Winn today that they will not be bringing the one time fan favorite back. Winn, 35, has played for the Giants for almost five seasons.

Well, in all fairness, this was a move they pretty much had to make considering the amount they gave up, only to watch Freddy limp through the final two months of the season only playing in a handful of games.
The Giants signed Sanchez to a two year deal worth $12 million dollars this...

What else can I say? No, you weren’t Barry Bonds. No, you weren’t Jeff Kent. Yes, we hated you when you arrived in San Francisco because you cost us John Burkett. No, we never wanted to give you a chance. But, you won us over. You always won everybody over. And today we...

Cubs – 3

Do I really need to say anything? I think that graphic says enough. How can a manager and a hitting coach continually allow these guys to go up to the plate and randomly hack like they’re trying to knock down a giant redwood? It amazes me. Zambrano...

Diamondbacks – I can’t count that high
Yikes. The game is still in the bottom of the 4th as I write this, but, there is no way the Giants are coming back. What a disaster. No, really. A ****** disaster. I mean the Giants were pretty much out of...

Jesus Christ that was a long game. And I don’t think that was my imagination. It was a weird game too. Pablo Sandoval nearly falling down stealing second base. Errors all over the diamond. Freddy Sanchez being carried after the field while...

You know, you think the worst news I’d have today would be the Dodgers beating the Giants, again. But that’s actually not the worst news of the day. That actually would be the Angel Villalona news. What Angel Villalona news you ask? This...

I’m sure you’re expecting a huge, drawn out, curse filled rant against the Giants right now…and that’s not going to happen. While there were some stupid moments, the Giants fought back hard last night. I was proud of them....

Regulators – mount up.
The Big Unit was moved from the DL to the active roster today, clearing a spot for the big southpaw for a return to action. Johnson is expected to come out of the bullpen for the remainder of the regular season.
To clear the space, the Giants moved pitcher...

Rockies – 2
Giants – 10
The Giants might have won last night. They also might have scored 10 runs while holding the potent Rockies offense to only 2 runs. They might have done this. They might also be going for a sweep tonight which would cut the Rockies Wild Card lead...

Is it too cliche to say that hitting is contagious? It is? Okay, I wont say it then. But damn! Hitting is contagious!
The Giants couldn’t score the first two games in the Dodger series (or most of the year) if they paid for runs. They lit up the Dodgers for seven runs on Sunday...

Dodgers- Too Many To Count
Giants – -2
Thanks to Heath Bell and the Padres (whom we can’t even beat) having a epic meltdown in the Top of the 9th inning (a game they WERE winning), the Giants now stand 5.5 out of the Wild Card behind the Rockies. And by my calculations...

Prediction? PAIN.
The Giants welcome the ******* assholes hated Los Angeles Dodgers to the Cove this weekend for a three game set, one that will undoubtedly pave the road on the Giants season. Starting today, the Giants are 4 1/2 games back of the Rockies in the Wild Card (with a 3...

Positives? Madison Bumgarner looked pretty nice, all be it, against the Padres. His fastball isn’t there yet and he’d get knocked around pretty good once teams figured him out, but, he looked very promising for a 20 year old and will make the Giants staff incredibly deep...

Giants ace Time Lincecum has been removed from starting tonights game versus the Padres due to a sore back. He is considered day-to-day.

Good news? The Giants keep winning. They’ve won 3 out of 4 (2 of those on the road), are playing the woeful Padres (no jinx!), and are 14 games over .500.
Bad news? Everything I just said, the Rockies are doing – and doing so just a little better.

I hate to be a negative nancy, but Jesus Christ – is there any team out there that can make a win feel like a loss? The Giants are excellent at it.

Uh, last night was uh, well, it was ******* horrible. The Giants offense is just – there are no words. And what words there might be are outlawed in a good 43 states. I mean really, what is Lincecum supposed to do? Throw a shut out every time he takes the mound? It’s almost as [...]
