Molina still doesn't understand why Mets failed... →
Someone thinks very highly of himself. /eyeroll
On the positive side ...
Bengie Molina being back means another year full of LOLFAT! jokes.

No, I won't let this go ...
How is Buster Posey and his whopping seventeen at-bats not ready for the major leagues yet Madison Bumgarner and his whopping ten innings pitched is ready?
I like them both, and I’m excited about them both, but after seeing them both, I’d be more inclined to say things are the other way around.
Then again, what do I know? After all, I’m just a crazy person who doesn’t...

How to Annoy the Crap Out of Me
Proclaim that you know Buster Posey isn’t ready for the major leagues based on his whopping seventeen at-bats in September. SEVENTEEN AT-BATS. SEVENTEEN. SEVENTEEN. SEVENTEEN AT-BATS.
Yeah, that’s a large and fair sample size.
Also, people need to make up their minds. Does Buster need to stay in Fresno because his defense isn’t ready? Or is it because his offense...

Bengie Molina is back?
I want to cry. And throw things. And curse a lot. And yell. But mainly cry.
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?
Eric Byrnes says Giants would be 'best fit' →
DO NOT WANT. DO NOT WANT. DO NOT WANT.
Yes, I understand that Eric Byrnes on a mega cheap deal could be a good gamble, especially if he somehow bounces back and regains his old flying squirrel on crack ways. However, you must remember who the skipper of the team is. If you bring Byrnes in to be the backup outfielder, he’ll somehow receive 500+ plate appearances and start over...

I can’t be the only person in the world who thinks it won’t be the end of the world if Buster Posey ends up being the starting catcher this year, right? People keep talking about the idea like it’s a terrible thing. Yet at the same time, they’re perfectly okay with Madison Bumgarner being the fifth starter.

San Francisco Giants Haitian Relief Auctions →
If I wasn’t kind of poor, I’d be all over these. Ten pitches off of a Giants starting pitcher would be sweet, even if I’d flail at each one.

Damon Bruce thinks the Giants should go after Molina for a one year deal and overpay for him?
DO NOT WANT. DO NOT WANT. DO NOT WANT.

And while I'm at it ...
What people should really be getting upset over is the Giants not keeping Ryan Garko. That’s still what bugs me the most, but that’s just me.

I'm sorry, but ...
I can’t believe people are getting worked up over the Giants not signing Adam LaRoche. IT’S FREAKING ADAM LAROCHE. I’ve criticized Sabean as much as the next person, but I honestly think this is more a case of an agent and a player overestimating his own value. The Giants offered him a nice two-year deal (and I believe this was before DeRosa was signed), he turned it down...

Or, well, I saw it’s a new Tumblr feature or something. Ask me questions, if you want. Or something.

I know this will never ever happen, but I kind of think if you’re one of the writers voting for the hall of fame and you submit a blank ballot, you should be removed from receiving any future ballots, kind of like removing yourself from a mailing list. The messages keep bouncing back? You’re removed. You’re an idiot trying to stir up controversy for no good reason? ...

New year, new upcoming season, new layout time.
We’ll see how long I keep the text on an orange background. I think it looks cool, but it also has the potential to make people blind. Not that anyone reads this stuff anyway.
