Tim Lincecum was dominant while Buster Posey and the Giants hitters kept up their timely blows and the Giants upped their spring record to 8-3. Key lines:
Miguel Tejada- 1 for 2, 3B. Miggy hitting .300 on the spring.
Buster Posey- 1 for 2, 2B, BB. In Buster we trust!!
Mike Fontenot- 1 for 3, 2B. Mikey batting .333 on the spring.
Tim Lincecum- 3.2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 7 K's.
Brian Wilson- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's. Weezy looked to be in mid-season form in his spring game debut.
Romo and Santiago Casilla pitched scoreless frames. Javier Lopez gave up a run on 2 hits in his one inning.
Matt Cain made 60 soft toss throws from 60 ft and reported his elbow felt fine.
Aaron "Gamer" Rowand will miss 2-3 games with a groin injury.
It's Durty's turn tomorrow in an evening game against the Texas Rangers.

i think that timmy is a man on a mission
ReplyDeletecain to miss another start, but threw from flat ground today
pretty shocked to see that ti had a hat trick...hasnt done that in forever
tejada showing that he still has wheels is a good thing
two things made me laugh in this post: since when is brian wilson's nickname 'weezy'? lol. and 'aaron "gamer" rowand'! love it!
ReplyDeleteKay,
ReplyDeleteWilson has been known as BWeezy in some circles for quite awhile. Also, the Giants built a whole marketing campaign on Rowand being a "gamer" when they signed him as a free agent.
Bacci,
ReplyDeleteYup, barring injury of course, I think Timmy is out to take back the Cy Young Award, Roy Halladay notwithstanding.
rowand is making it very hard for the org
ReplyDeleteas much as i would love to see zito gone....rowand should be first on the list
however, his weak spring is gonna make him impossible to trade....however....the phils again are in need of an of
rowand is perfect for that band box of a park...he loved it there...the fans loved him
giants gotta make the deal
puts nate on the roster....
baggs has a very good article on the mindset change regarding the development of position players
Yeah Bacc,
ReplyDeleteI'm just not so sure the Phils are takers for Rowand. I think the Giants might just end up eating the contract and releasing him. Frankly, I'd keep Darren Ford over Rowand. Even if they only used Ford as a pinch-runner, he'd win a game here and there with his speed. Rowand gives the Giants nothing right now.
Bacci,
ReplyDeleteYou don't happen to have a link for that article on the Giants mindset about position prospects, do you? I know it's out there, but haven't been able to track it down.

ReplyDeletesorry...shoulda posted earlier
and i think that ford and belt are starting the year in fresno....
not that they cant make the team, they can...but i think the fo is gonna look for decker and his coaches to work on some finer points with both guys
its also better for both to be working everyday, rather than coming off the bench
ive been pretty impressed by most of the young guys this spring
lots of credit must go to bobby evans, who i am sure is a shoo-in to take over for sabean when he decides to step down
Thanks Bacci.
