Good time to start fading the GiantsComment -
seem to have no bullpen whatsoeverComment -
My books not offering them most likely due to the short season but nobody taking 2H bets this year? Haven’t seen anyone posting themComment -
My favorite team stat is the one all the way to the right.
The WAR column.
-0.9 is brutal, about a bad as it gets.
Hey, the Red Sox pitching is almost as bad.

What's the old adage?Originally posted by lakerboy
What have you done for me lately?
One of the greatest baseball managers off all time Bruce Bochy saw the writing on the wall and retired.
Can't say I blame him.
He won those titles with pitching and you know why he won?
Because he was a former catcher.
Catcher's know.
But pitching always win, always has and always will.
I'm writing a baseball book (for real) and if anyone wants to sit down and talk about pitching count me in.Comment -
maybe the best play with the giants on days you like them is to play the 1st 5..............Comment -
Kapler is a meat head. Hopefully he screws up enough that they ditch his ass after this season.Comment -

Giants were close in 2002. Bonds, Kent, Snow, and Santiago could of had a ring.Originally posted by lakerboyComment -

Yep, got beat my yet another team (Angels) with very good pitching, mediocre hitting, and managed by another former big league catcher.Originally posted by JMobile
Funny how that keeps working out.Comment -
Angel's had a good offense: Glaus, Spiezio, Salmon, Erstad, Eickstein.Originally posted by stevenashComment -
their bullpen is terribleComment -
Glaus and Garrett Anderson did most of the heavy lifting in 2002 for the Angels.Originally posted by JMobile
Glaus hit 30 homers and drove in 111 runs
Garrett Anderson hit 29 homers and drove in 123 runs.
That Angels team was one of the most balanced teams I can remember.
This is what I meant by their pitching.
The top three starters made each and every starts (32)
The top three starters each won 14 plus games.
Yet the common baseball fan can't name one of them.
The Angel pitching staff was top 2 in most every pitching category.
On offense they did not have a Bonds, or a Griffey, or a Sosa, or an A-Rod...
But all of them were good at multiple things.
Same as their pitching staff.
They didn't have a Pedro, or a Clemens, or a Randy Johnson either.
The Angels best player that season very well may have been Troy Percival who saved 40 games but gets over looked by Johm Smoltz and hist 55 saves but Percival was automatic that season.
Here's the pitching staff that nobody remembers.

This was not a great pitching staff that did win it all.
