Let's just forget that last night's game ever happened, alright? Outpitched, outhit, outmatched.
Interesting factoid: since coming off the DL, Khalil Greene has played in 15 games. He's failed to get a hit in 8 of them, but he's had a multi-hit game in 5 of them. Feast or famine, it looks like. It was definitely feast last night.
Isn't it easy to tell how different of a team the Padres are since the Giants last played them near the end of April? What? It isn't? Oh yeah, it's the same guys, they're just playing better, that's all.

Can we do-over the trade too?? Ugh, why do I feel like that one is gonna hurt for years to come...
Uh-oh. That comment fills me with superstitious dread. When I left home today, the Giants were up 2-1 in the 5th...
(sigh)Walker ~and~ Fassero, huh? Fassero I can excuse because he's thrown over-his-head most of the season, so I'm figuring we're on borrowed time with him regressing to the mean. Walker...hm, well, at least he didn't give up any walks.
Aneel, I'm going to have to say that the bullpen IS a problem and disagree with you there. It isn't the biggest problem -- offense, the rotation, and the bullpen seem to share the problems freely amongst them.
Sharing is caring, you know.
If it's not one, it's the other... sigh... starting pitching one day, bullpen the next. Hawkins may help stabilize the 'pen a bit (although there's no guarantee of that), but Williams and Aardsma was too high a price, don't you think??
Yes, that was too high of a price, but Sabean does not care one whit about the youth of this franchise -- prepare yourself, because I have no doubt Sabes will throw Cain, Valdez, and anybody else at another team just to get a mediocre veteran in the last year of his contract that he thinks COULD help.
He obviously has no regard for the future of the team post-Barry Bonds. The organization has virtually no offensive prospects, but does have a strength in pitching. Only problem is, they won't all pan out, and Sabean will trade 2/3 of them before they even get a shot at the bigs.
The team isn't good enough to warrant such a desperate move. Sabean got his lunch money taken from him.
