GDT #37: May 12, 2014 Braves (Floyd) @ Giants (Lincecum)

[sentenza]

Once again we can't get any hits of the season's worst pitcher in all the MLB!
A guy with a around 6 ERA and we have 2 hits?
Something has to happen with our offense. the pitching can't win it all season!
When did we score more then 4 runs the last time?

With viewership down, traffic low, and the team struggling... I have to do what I have to, to generate buzz and interest in the only money making part of this site (GDT).

Let the contract extension spree begin.

Laird is 6 for 37 on the season with 1 XBH and ZERO RBI...

His fat ass does not even need to be starting 1 game a week...I am so sick of seeing him in this line up....but when he is, why the fckn 5th spot? What is the logic in that!?!?!

Fredi likes spreading the pitchers around in his lineup.

I saw how much ratings news channels have been getting for the Donald Sterling and Missing Flight 370 stories... so I needed to do something to bring up the ratings.

If batting your worst hitter 8th is good, surely hitting him 5th is better, right?

Pena is 2 for 23 since Struggs was pined...1 XBH and 1 RBI

 

[The Tariff King]

Not sure how many splitters Lincecum threw, but Brian Jordan apparently never knew what a slider and change up looked like.

Well, racist comments are no problem here.

The transponder signal for our offense went away about the same time as 370's.

Just don't let anyone take your picture with a black american catcher. Hang out with him, **** him, whatever. Just don't bring him to our games.

Heyward is 3 for his last 30 with 2 XBH and 2 RBI

Still walking and playing great defense.

Can we say the same for Laird?

 

[Julio3000]

Heyward is 3 for his last 30 with 2 XBH and 2 RBI

Probably 8 or 9 walks, too, right?

 

[jsebe10]

Justin Upton 6 for his last 37 with 1 HR and 1 RBI

 

[The Tariff King]

Brian Jordan clearly demonstrating why he he has low baseball IQ.

This team doesn't show up!!! We get our a-- handed to us by a guy with an ERA in the stratosphere. I am so glad that taking Uggs out of the line up has fixed everything. Even if we find some way to right this thing and make the post season it won't last long! They just take too many nights off.

 

[jsebe10]

God shut the fck up Fredi....

Count again. Including today, during the span of his last 28 AB's he walked 8 times. Oh, he also has 4 hits (not 3) and 3 XBH (not 2). Still not great, but the OBP isn't terrible and if you go back one more day he had a 3 for 5 day, so it's kind of cherry picking data.

May 12: 0 for 2, 2 BB

May 11: 1 for 3, 1 BB, HR

May 10: 0 for 3, 1 BB

May 9: 1 for 3, 1 BB

May 7: 0 for 4, 0 BB

May 6: 0 for 4, 0 BB

May 5: 1 for 3, 2 BB, 2B

May 4: 0 for 3, 0 BB

May 3: 1 for 3, 1 BB, 2B

Ask.com says McCovey Cove is 470 ft from home plate. FF says, "Ho hum."
