Look at Jesse now!

wow was that the same chavez from st

Atta baby Prado base knock

marteeeen on fire

4 dp in a row?

how unfortunate

this just in

Martin Prado is tearing it up. He might even hit .300 this year!

I certainly hope not!

Ok reply FAIL!

Glaus needs to come threw to gain my respect; 6ks and a DP with base loads in 10 PA is ridiculous

fastball blown by glaus for k guareentteed

Glaus is garbage.

His bad is way too slow.

bad=bat
yeah they exploited it in spring training...

just everybody wanted to throw more than fastballs and thats how he got hits

I am worried.
Dont Worry

Heyward planned this! He’s waiting until the ninth inning, gonna let escobar get on base and he’s gonna tie it up

here's hoping that happens
at least chavez looks decent

95 fastball
90 slider
Aint too bad
exciting to have him in the pin from the right side

he reminds me of another latin pitcher

cant figure out who…sorta looks like someone tho

This Chavez guy

Looks pretty impressive so far

did this thing slow to a crawl or are people still posting in the other thread?

Our bullpen has been outstanding this series

Jesse looks fantastic tonight….Maybe he just had a bad spring!

the anti-Glaus

Yeah he was just working on stuff bc he knew he had a job locked up

dunno about that

Since he didnt really have it locked up…he said publicly that he typically stinks in ST

Someone

needs to post that rally cap graphic like last night

Seriously, how long will Glaus last?

He’s not MLB material anymore. His bat is way too slow. Who plays 1st if not him?

its only been 3 games

He gets at least a month, I would think

I agree but I'm not liking the way he's not hitting.

It would be one thing if he was getting good outs. But his bat is just plan slow.

3 games
You're too sensible to be a fan.

J/k.

I vote Hinske… his defense probably sucks but his bat has been impressive to be

Freddie Freeman
hinskie first i would think

I dont think Freddie is in the plans for this year

Let's call the kid up!

WE just don’t seem to have it offensively tonight….Maybe we’ll come alive in the 9th

Nice hit Esocbar!!!!

Come on now big money no dp’s

Fukudome is pretty good defensively

Heyward strikes out!!!!

Marmol is a candy ass…..not throwing a fastball. Pussy

And he sounds like a french candy.
This

just isn’t our night. Come on someone hit a homer!

McLouth will get one.
Walk!!!!!!!!!!

Way to go Nasty Nate!

Why was heyward swinging

Marmol’s slider is filthy!!!!

Hinske time!!!!!

Good eye Nate good eye

I think we should put out Jesus

It worked against the phillies right?

It

would be insane if Hinske hit a 3 run homer right here.

That would pwn

This pitcher

is on his way to a meltdown.

I'd take a walk by Hinske
Damnit. So close. Warning track power there.

Wrong part of the park

Melky will get a homer

Nice shot there by Hinske! Too bad!

We aren't going undefeated.

Melky sucks ass….What a waste of a roster spot

What happened

To Melky being clutch

Well

we can’t win them all. What time does the game tomorrow come on?

Afternoon game.

Who’s pitching for the Giants?

I believe it’s Sanchez, but I may be wrong

Yep, Sanchez v. Hudson at 4:35pm

At least we won the series…now to win the next one and so on

I don't like...

how easily we’ve been shut down these last two games, I’m not overreacting or anything, but yikes those were two frustrating games to watch, kind of like the dozens upon dozens of games I watched last year exactly like that.

Yeah

Im gonna be going bald this year if their offense is as pitiful as last year

cody johnson homered in AA

Mehlke

Didn’t we start last season with a leadoff hitter who couldn’t get on base?

the leadoff last year to start was KJ
