    Gattis has a nice game. Fredi sits him.

    Makes sense

    Fredi wants to make sure Lincecum's changeup is maxed out by starting the lefty.

    I ask this nicely. Are you guys morons?
    Evan can barely walk after games. Get used to it.
    He will play tomorrow, and probably have Sunday off too.
    He is not an every day catcher. That's why we have three.
    Get the hell over it already.
    Now, let's go Bravos!!!!

    Hopefully Gattis comes up with a big pinch hit later tonight. For now, I'm just thankful there's no Uggla.

    Fredi's seen Lincecum's ERA the past couple seasons and couldn't resist getting in there to take some hacks at him.

    I understand the need for giving catchers days off, but we just got our asses handed to us and he's one of our hottest hitters. It's also May. It's not moronic to question why he can't come back tonight.

    FUGLY lineup, then again, no matter who we run out there our lineup is not pretty. No reason Gattis should be sitting, though.

    Lincecum's splits are neutral. Pena is two for six against him and Pastornicky has not had an at bat against him.

    The significant development is the benching of Uggla. It is a good move considering his struggles this year and the fact he has zero hits off Lincecum in 15 at bats.

    Uggla also has a very poor record against Bumgarner. It would make sense to start Pastornicky in that game.

    I would have played Gattis tonight. Rested him tomorrow. Then bring him back for the day game on Sunday.

    I wonder who is going to catch Sunday. So far Fredi has not used Gattis on a day game after a night game.

    It would make sense to go with a platoon of Pena and Tyler from here on out, until half the board's lover boy Stella gets the call.

    Fredi is so sick of this team he's putting himself in the lineup to showcase himself for a trade.
    Forever Fredi

    He had to go through Hale to get back, but he made it.

    Because we will need Gattis in Sept and hopefully the playoffs. He is not a guy that can play everyday. I thought that was apparent by now.
