I don't get why hitters swing at the first pitch whenever it isn't right down the middle. It always baffles me. I know it's being agressive and I like that, but take a pitch first.

I wish you were Delmon Young's hitting coach.

But according to Gardenhire's lineup tonight he's better than Jason Kubel. Sometimes I hate this team. Not too often, but sometimes.

Soriano is fantastic at swinging at a first pitch if it's a breaking ball. Particularly if it starts about thigh height and is below the knees before reaching home.
Similarly, if there's 2 strikes, apparently fastballs at your face are a good option to swing at.

Thank god Soriano has a laser arm.
Sure, he might not ever catch a ball or hurts himself doing his ******** little hop, but at least I can expect the ball to not hit the ground 10 feet in front of him.

Medlen is looking pretty decent here. He was one of my favorites to watch when I got the Mississippi and Gwinnett games sent to me. He was damn near unhittable in AAA last year.

Only 109 pitches for Cueto. Usually Dusty lets them go at least 160 before he brings them out

Im really excited to see the Giants starting off hot. We got the pitching and as of now the hitting is also looking like it improved. I still think we need to go out and get one power hitter behind Pablo if we want to try to be a real contender but I think with the team we have right now we could win the west

And putting a guy who has faced all of 3 batters in ML career to face Pujols and Holliday.

The Giants need players who can get on base more IMO. Weren't you last in the NL in OBP for the past 5 seasons?

Remember like a year and half ago I told you he was your best pitcher on the team. That was back when you were still drooling over Kazmir.
