There is a bugabear hanging over this game:  The dodgers players roast sweet innocent babes alive in a giant pit fueled by the all that is evil.

There I said it.

If the Giants each had to play a role in the godfather universe, they would do so in the following manner:   Lincecum would be Michael, Cain would be Sonny,  Eugenio would be Fredo and Zito would be Sofia Coppola.

In a shocking move, ESPN has learned that the Giants have called up 1 hour old zygote, Mark Lively, to the bigs.   Citing Lively's plate presence and precocious development, Sabean told this reporter that he anticipates great success for the young ball player.    Some critics have called the move premature, saying Lively has neither a functioning central nervous system nor actual limbs but Sabean dismisses these criticisms as mutterings from fringe fans.   His response  "we just couldn't afford to wait any longer.  After all, Lively will be a blastocyst in 3 days".

In Soviet Russia, Coors Field hates you.

Jose Castillo ranks shockingly low on the list of distainable Giants.   If you think about it, Castillo was essentially Pedro Feliz without the all world defense.   Perhaps brevity makes the heart grow fonder?

Go Giants!

The thought of Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum spending the primes of their respective careers on a team that scores run like Natto scores chicks makes me sad inside.

edit:  BRAD AUSMUS HAS STOLEN CHRISTMAS, HANNUKAH AND JOY.  HE MUST DIE.  What the hell, man.

In a Sabean Vs Colletti head-to-head no holds barred matchup of who has the more ignominious trading history,  I think Sabean wins by a nose.   Of course, he has been doing this for longer and is probably nearing the end of his Giants tenure so....  I like Colletti's upside.

Sanchez's emergence as a legitimate major league starter has been one of the bright spots this season.

0-0 game in the 5th.   Testament to two tremendous pitching performances or indictment of two woeful offenses?    Your opinion speaks volumes on the type of person you are.
