A Scout’s View On Eugenio Velez

by @ Thursday, November 1st, 2007. Filed under 2007 Giants

Chris Kline at Baseball America recently got a scout’s view on Giants Rule 5 find Eugenio Velez.  With a solid season at Double-A and a good Arizona Fall League so far this season, the scout throws out the name Jose Reyes without a full fledged comparison.  He’s a switch hitter and he’s played second base [...]

Another Disappointing Season Down the Tubes

by @ Friday, September 21st, 2007. Filed under 2007 Giants

Well, 2007 is almost wrapped and not only did the Giants not make the post season, they didn’t come close.  Brian Sabean, the architect of this mediocrity, got a contract extension (the A.J. Pierzynski trade has been long forgotten) and the only highlight of the season was Barry Bonds breaking Hank Aaron’s record.  I don’t [...]

Barry Bonds Hits Homerun Number 756

by @ Wednesday, August 8th, 2007. Filed under 2007 Giants

Barry Bonds did it.  He’s now the homerun kind and while Giants’ fans don’t have much to cheer about these days, it’s sweet to see Bonds get it done.  I just wish someone could write a column about it that didn’t have the word steroids in it.

Giants Drop Seventh Straight Game

by @ Wednesday, June 20th, 2007. Filed under 2007 Giants

Yeah, it’s been a while but other then Barry Bonds, there hasn’t been a whole lot to talk about with the Giants.  They lost their seventh straight game today and they sit way behind the pack in the National League Central.  The Rockies are closer to first then were are to the Rockies and it’ll [...]

Giants Get Good Pitching In Three Game Winning Streak

by @ Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007. Filed under 2007 Giants

The Giants are trying to dig themselves out of a hole and while they still sit in fourth place, they’re just 2 1/2 games back of the first place Dodgers in what’s been a four team race so far.  After tough stretch, the Giants have won three straight and it’s been the pitching staff that’s [...]
