Giants Sign D-Train

Giants Sign D-Train

By Chris Quick on July 15, 2010

Another ‘who saw this one coming’ move from the Giants. MLBTR: The San Francisco Giants’ official Twitter feed reports that the club signed left-hander Dontrelle Willis to a minor-league contract with Triple-A Fresno on Wednesday.  The Giants are Willis’ third team this season, after he was designated for assignment by both the Tigers and Diamondbacks [...]

Lincecum Struggles Again -- But I'm Not Worried

Lincecum Struggles Again — But I’m Not Worried

By Chris Quick on May 27, 2010

Watching Tim Lincecum struggle against the Washington Nationals should remind us all that he’s human. And, at the same time, the tremendous strides he’s made since he debuted in 2007 at the age of 23-years-old. I’ve written about it before, but two things essentially have turned Lincecum from a promising college arm to one of [...]

Ishipower

Ishipower

By Chris Quick on August 26, 2009

After the last soul-crushing defeat, the Giants needed this game. Matt Cain chipped in 7 innings of 2 run baseball and Travis Ishikawa belted a 3-run HR in the 8th inning to break a 2-2 tie. Something that I’ve noticed about Cain this year is that his K/9 has dropped by almost 1 full strikeout [...]

Wednesday Plot

Wednesday Plot

By Chris Quick on March 11, 2009

Bad Ideas File #2851

By Chris Quick on March 9, 2009

You down with OBP? Yeah, I didn’t think so. “The biggest thing I talk to Freddie about is having a certain attitude,” Lansford said. “When you’re the No. 3 hitter, you’re our best hitter. I don’t care who’s on the mound. There’s a way you walk into the box and [maintain a] thought process, the [...]

Simply Irresistible

Simply Irresistible

By Chris Quick on August 27, 2008

After watching Matt Palmer struggle once again to throw strikes in last nights game, I got to wondering, why do Giants pitchers always seem to walk so many batters? Poor Palmer walked 6 hitters in 4.1 innings pitched — he walked a total of 13 hitters in 3 major league starts. The “real Matt Palmer” [...]
