Giants BATSMEN, 12/17: CSN Re-Broadcasts, Velez, Renteria
Posted on 18 Dec 2010 by Joseph Davis.
(Reminder: BATSMEN stands for Birthdays, Appearances, Tune In, Sundry, Movement, Eavesdroppings, & News.) I can’t speak for all Giants fans, but speaking for me, the Comcast SportsNet Bay Area rebroadcasts of the 2010 Giants postseason run have been nothing short of…terrific. The tally of magical highlights grew so high, they admittedly became a little blurred in my mind as time passed...

Giants BATSMEN, 12/9/10: Renteria Staying?
Posted on 9 Dec 2010 by Joseph Davis.
Late-breaking news courtesy of KNBR and verified via the reliable John Shea’s Twitter update: Edgar Renteria has been offered a deal to return to the Giants as a reserve, for 1 year at about $1M (pretty sure a certain unnamed handsome Giants blogger predicted that stance weeks ago). I’ll keep you posted. After a good flurry of activity, so begins the conclusion to the lively 2010 Winter Mee...

Giants BATSMEN, 12/3/10
Posted on 3 Dec 2010 by Joseph Davis.
At first I was going to refrain from explanation and let you the readers figure out what BATSMEN meant. Then I had the wise realization you do not come to PSB for riddles; you come to satiate your baseball cravings. BATSMEN is an acronym for the subject matter to be found in BATSMEN columns: (Giants) Birthdays (pretty obvious) Appearances (where our Giant personnel will be visiting) Tune In (w...

Juan Uribe: How He Could Do That To Us
Posted on 30 Nov 2010 by Joseph Davis.
I’m going to play telepathic for a moment and read your collective minds: “If he had to leave, WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO TO THE DODGERS???” He went to the Dodgers for the same reason Kevin Brown, Darren Dreifort, Rafael Furcal, Shawn Green, Jason Schmidt, and more recently, Hiroki Kuroda and Man-Ram went to (or stayed with) the Dodgers—their home ballpark has spectacular views. Psyc...

How Misfits And Castoffs Became Champions, Part 2 Of 3
Posted on 29 Nov 2010 by Joseph Davis.
#17 Aubrey Huff, First Base Huff spent the majority of his nine years playing mostly for woeful Devil Rays and Orioles squads, which no human being should be punished with. The big guy wasn't exactly a hot commodity in the wake of a tough 2009 season with the Detroit Tigers. Far from it, in fact. In an era laden with talented first basemen everywhere you look, Huff’s career may have ended i...

Stay right here at ProSportsBlogging.com all winter long for regular reads on all topics Orange And Black—from a fellow who didn’t suddenly develop an allegiance to the team at the end of play on October 3rd. The season may be through, but I’m far from it. Transactions, injury reports, winter leagues, interview summaries—yes, they’ll be predominantly featured and analyzed in d...

Giants Parade: The Place Was Jammin’; The Crowd Was Hecka Crammin’
Posted on 22 Nov 2010 by Joseph Davis.
It was indeed Boys Vs. Girls in the World Series (Parade) Of Love. And if U were there anytime after 7am, U most certainly did NOT get the look. Not the one you hoped for, anyway. I knew exactly what I was about to put myself through when I vowed that nothing short of my murder would stop me from at least attending the Giants’ celebratory parade in…shudder…downtown San Francisco, a region...

OK, The Giants Are Champs. NOW What???
Posted on 20 Nov 2010 by Joseph Davis.
No great experience in life lacks a potential downside. Carefree lovemaking can lead to babies and, if you’re doing it unfaithfully, lies and divorce and poverty. Winning the lottery can open the door to scamming opportunists, not to mention scrutiny from those “close to” you who feel they deserve an unreceived handout. Got a shiny new Lamborghini? Then you got higher insurance rates, low...

Here She Come Now Sayin’ Posey, Posey
Posted on 16 Nov 2010 by Joseph Davis.
…and the whole Bay Area’s feelin’ all right. Buster Posey is the N.L. Rookie of the Year for 2010, quite the feat considering his 2010 was about 33% shorter than that of fellow contenders Jason Heyward, Jaime Garcia, and Gaby Sanchez. He was named on 20 first-place ballots and received 129 total points, 22 more than Heyward. If the BBWAA somehow blew this vote and denied possibly the nati...

In salute to the World Series MVP Edgar Renteria, who wears #16, I present you with my select Top 16 2010 Giants Postseason Moments—in a particular order. You will not find any moments from the NLDS on this list, simply because none of them are guaranteed to stay fresh in my mind past the turn of the season, like the NLCS and World Series moments will (besides the Giants’ classy nod to the ...

How Misfits And Castoffs Became Champions, Part 1 of 3
Posted on 4 Nov 2010 by Joseph Davis.
We all know Edgar Renteria cracked the decisive bomb in Game 5 of the World Series against Texas. We know Brian Wilson wrapped up the 9th as he has countless times since the season opened. We know Tim Lincecum brought his A game and brilliantly controlled a high-power offense with his assortment of fastballs and changeups. We know Bruce Bochy stood at the wheel, navigating his roster masterfull...
