He says he considered it his first 3 homer day. Even though it was really the inside-the-parker, a double and a flyout, he said he can't hit it ANY harder or better. PacBell - where homers go to die.

Lincecum beats the Doggers with his arm and his Bat. I really like that kids style.

That was pretty insane today.

Despite the loss ... for the love of Juan Marichal, is Barry Zito really going to be this good again?

Still rates up with one of the worst signings in the history of baseball ... but, has he finally turned that corner?

I don't think you can say he's the worst signing. Most overpaid maybe, but worst signing no.

He has been solid since the second half of last season. The Giants just flat out don't score runs. They need a huge bat that can guarantee 35+ homers to be competitive.

It's not run support that is Zito's problem. While he was good late last year, he's 31 - 45 entering this year with an ERA close to 5 over his three years with the Giants.

That's not a lot of bang for the buck when you sign the guy to a 7 year $126M contract!

You can argue about Mike Hampton all you want ... but so far, the worst contract, yes probably ever, is Zito's.

Tough one with Romo. I dont know much about him yet, as long as he doesnt start dating a Simpson girl I'll give him a chance to do well in Black and Orange.

deja vu all over again. I've tried to defend Sabean for years, but the makeup of this offense is pathetic.

2 weeks in first and a free fall from here.

Exactly! I was thinking this last night. Our pitching is the best in baseball but we need to score at least 2 runs to win some of these games. Hopefully Wellemeyer can pull his head out of his ass today and the Giants can get a WIN!!! Then we can get our asses home and whoop up on some St. Louis :D

It ain't good when we have to wait for our ace to stop a skid...........but I'll take it :mrgreen: .

I see DeRosa is back. Maybe the boys can get back to winning.

I saw Fred Lewis in a Blue Jays highlight the other night :roll: .

I was reading an article talking about how DeRosa was the glue of this team. Might make sense seeing how we lost 4 in a row without him.

Big game tonight with Zito facing Wainwright, but I think we got it! :D
