Game Thread: 6/5 Champs @ Philth

[tzill]

1. Gregor Blanco (L) LF
2. Joe Panik (L) 2B
3. Angel Pagan (S) CF
4. Buster Posey (R) C
5. Brandon Belt (L) 1B
6. Brandon Crawford (L) SS
7. Matt Duffy (R) 3B
8. Justin Maxwell (R) RF
9. Tim Lincecum (L) P

Seaweed sits; Shark in. Oxy back in the 3 spot; Herk still out with the wrist thing.

BT with ownage on the Philth; nobody with more than 3 ABs vs. the Puka Shell.

Horse those horsing horses; 7-4 good guys.

Pagan has completely lost all his power this year. I assume it is because he babying his back, but that is just a guess.

With Aoki in the lineup, I am OK with Pagan hitting 3, basically because you gotta do what you gotta do with what you have. But when Aoki is not in the lineup, having a #3 with zero power is not optimal. Pagan should be hitting #1.

Another nit pick...

Duff should be hitting 6 and Craw 7 to break up the L/R thing. I am not saying Craw has not earned a higher-spot in the line up. I am just saying that Duffy is strong as well, and it makes things harder on the opposing manager late in the game if Duffy were hitting 6 instead.

Pagan is gonna be just fine. When he gets it going the Giants offense is gonna really go.He has done some diving around in CF but I don't think he is hurting.

Craw has been an RBI machine...leave him right where he has been. Don't mess with a good thing.

Revere might as well steal third against Lincecum

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

"Good Lincecum" sure was a fun few weeks, wasn't it

 

[Band of Brothers]

There is no way Lincecum should be pitching to Howard...NO F@CKING WAY with first base open and two outs. Unreal . That is a major tactical mistake. Howard owns him. Stay away ! Avoid ! Unreal ,mistake there. WOW

Howard deep HR 2-0 Phillies


Howard now has 5 HR's lifetime vs. Lincecum

He's a career .231 hitter vs. Lincecum with 17 K's and is a shell of the hitter he used to be. Lincecum f'd up with his pitches

 

[Band of Brothers]

Tim is struggling again tonight/./Pitcher hits a double and scores a run. 3-1 Philly

Yeah but his power numbers 4 HR's lifetime vs. Lincecum before this latest is enough to say no thanks and move on to the next guy. The Phillies got shit right now. force someone else to beat you.
