I've got a better question....what happened to your love of the Rockies? It's like starting in 2010, coincidentally the same year Colorado got bad and Texas made it to the WS, you kicked the Rockies to the curb and picked up the Rangers..

I'd never do that to the Giants. Then again, some of us are diehards..and some aren't..

and his other investors picked up a ruined, bankrupt franchise from Tom Hicks. I had no idea that they would become so good.

but what happened to the Rockies? You used to post about them almost everyday, now weeks can go by without you even mentioning them. It's all about the Rangers. The Rockies..who are they?

I'm sorry El Supremo, but you're a bandwagon fan man. Simple as that.

in the meantime, he hurting the Giants.

ERA

April: 1.04

May: 1.26

June: 7.71

July: 5.40

It's pretty evident there's a problem. Bochy's probably about ready to jump off the bandwagon himself..

I remember you wondered if Casilla could handle the workload of a closer. And sure that was a concern in his taking over for Wilson, but who would have thought his effectiveness would only last 2 months?

the travel day and the first two blowouts by the Nats. But that heat saps everyone not used to it. Maybe it is rest.

Closing is mental as much as physical. Maybe more so. I think he's lost confidence. I also think Sabean is going to bring in another reliever by end of July.

Too bad about Freddie Sanchez. Sounds like his Giants' career is over.

But being from Southwestern Colorado, don't you think the Texas/Minnesota game should be seen in all the western states?

FOX and Rupert Murdoch suck maggot infested turds!

Red Sox - Yankees are what people want to see. They are the most commonly seen gear after the Rockies on the street, with the D'backs a distant fourth. Rangers? meh.

I can't argue with you about Rupert and FOX, though.
