Flair For The Dramatic
Posted on 9 May 2011 by Daniel Lust.
Three Games. Three Victories. How Sweep it is. Finally looking like themselves again, the Giants disposed of Rockies in dramatic fashion. They didn't look like the far superior team, but that's nothing new for this group. All of last year, even during the playoffs, they rarely blew out their opponent. They simply find a way to get the job done. Same Formula. Great pitching coupled with ...

Home Sweet Home
Posted on 6 May 2011 by Daniel Lust.
The Giants were the story of the year in 2010. Behind a dominant pitching staff and some clutch hitting, San Francisco wowed the baseball world en route to their first World Series Title since 1954 (as the New York Giants). The commissioner's reward? A grueling first month schedule with 22 of 31 games on the road, having the fewest home games of any team in baseball over that span. After spendi...

2011 MLB Preview: Looking at Tim Lincecum and the San Francisco Giants on Paper
Posted on 29 Mar 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
World Champions! It only took the Giants 66 years to climb back to the top of the mountain, and it was the first World Series title in San Francisco. And to those who say it was a fluke, it wasn't. In the year of the pitcher, the Giants proved that they had the best pitching staff in baseball. Bruce Bochy also proved that he's one of the best managers in the game. And lastly, while the...

Uhh…Did Bud Selig Post My Last Column?
Posted on 30 Oct 2010 by Joseph Davis.
…because for some reason, it got 1994′d—as in the final 3rd of it was mysteriously ABSENT. Never mind; I'll simply pull a Bowie Kuhn and re-start from the point of incident. I was going to ask you to chime in as to who your Series MVP is so far, until I reminded myself this series is NOT over. We Giants have won NOTHING yet. The Rangers can go off at any time; th...

WORLD SERIES PREVIEW and PREDICTION
Posted on 27 Oct 2010 by George Kouvalis.
The 2010 World Series is only hours away and it looks like it should be a great series. The Fall Classic will start at AT&T Park tonight with a great pitching matchup featuring Cliff Lee and Tim Lincecum. I for one cannot wait for this series to get underway, with two underdog teams in the playoffs, both from what has been long considered “weak” west divisions from each Leag...

First Place Padres
Posted on 13 Sep 2010 by Jeff Burke.
The Padres are still in first place, and I'm going to say it as much as I can. While I still can. The Padres have twenty games left on the schedule and just one day off the rest of the way out. During the next twenty games the Padres have series with some tough teams, that are still playing for something. With the likes of the Giants, Rockies, Cardinals, and Reds. It is not going t...

Pirates RHP James Taillon – The facts about first-rounders
Posted on 3 Sep 2010 by Jim Keller.
Will James Taillon be the next Josh Beckett or Brien Taylor? Now that the Pittsburgh Pirates have inked the second overall pick in the 2010 draft to a reported club record $6.5 million bonus, what kind of an impact will James Taillon have and how long will it be before we see the fire-balling righthander and his 97 mph fastball at PNC Park? With the Pirates' young hitting talents Andrew McCu...

The Series Rewind: Jays take two of three from Padres to close out “shaky” road trip
Posted on 17 Jun 2010 by Ben Fisher.
The Breakdown: It’s probably not in good taste to make a pun about an earthquake, is it? Anyway, taking two of three games in San Diego took some of the sting out of a 3-6 road trip for the Blue Jays (36-31). Shaun Marcum and Ricky Romero earned series-bookending wins for the Jays (the sixth of the season for each man), while Brett Cecil allowed a second inning grand slam en route to taking t...
