It's gotta be the hair.

Ha ha. Lincy strikes out with bases loaded and a handful of boos can be heard. Hopefully the people sitting next to those idiots beat the crap out of them. Some people are so damn stupid.

oh well.

oh well.

He'll get one eventually.

If I may explicate just how irritated I am with Barry Zito...

...particularly with today's start. $126 million over 7 years to end up 4-9 at the break this year. But, the groupies still defend him. There isn't enough PBR on tap here at Buffalo Wild Wings to excuse this. Even Johnathan Sanchez earned his freedom. Wow...

The Giants shred the Pad's lineup (one of the worst in the game) for three straight games, then Zito rolls out there today and they light him up. That was a four game sweep for the taking.

Zito is the most overrated pitcher in baseball.

Pablo Sandoval not making the all-star game is a true travesty. In fact with Cain getting hurt the Giants only having one representative is also a joke.

How does Jayson Werth or Shane Victorino get in over Pablo? (besides the fact that Charlie Manuel picked Werth).

Lets look at the numbers at the break:

Jayson Werth

.263 average, 20 homeruns, 56 rbis. .884 OPS, 81 hits, 158 total bases.

Shane Victorino

.309 average, 6 homeruns, 42 rbis, .375 OBP, 108 hits, .839 OPS, 162 total bases

Pablo Sandoval

.333 average, 15 homeruns, 55 rbis, .385 OBP, 102 hits, .964 OPS, 177 total bases.

WTF!

Tim Lincecum has been named the NL Starter for the All Star game on Tuesday:

Lincecum at 500 inninings:

Lincecum just passed 500 big-league innings, and at this milepost you have to rank him with some of the greatest pitching prodigies of the past quarter century. Here's just one sampling of the company he keeps, comparing him to Clemens, Gooden and Pedro Martinez when they passed the 500-inning mark:


Pitcher.........W-L (PCT) ERA SO

Gooden........42-13 (.764) 2.00 550
Lincecum......35-12 (.745) 2.95 564
Clemens.......41-15 (.732) 3.15 456
Martinez.......39-22 (.639) 3.22 494

Speaking of Lincecum, he pitched okay--not as terrible as I thought he initially did--last night in two innings. He attributed it to nerves more than anything. I remember Kruk and Kuip throwing that excuse out there on opening day against the Brewers when Tim only went 4 innings. Here's the link in case you're wondering what the hell I'm talking about:

The first half inning was pretty sloppy all the way around; bad throw by Wright, Puljos has an error, Lincy hits a batter. They were lucky to only be down two at the end of it.

You could tell Lincecum was nervous, his fastball was high and it wasn't until the 2nd that he really went to his 12-6er.
