Well I bet you really needed some when the sucky Astros took 2 games last week.
Yeah, a triple dose last week.
I don't know what in the name of sanity has been happening to the Giants in the past 25 games or so. Everything had been going fairly well... until the Carlos Beltran trade. Orlando Cabrera has been OK. Jeff Keppinger I think has been wonderfully steady and solid for us. Kepp will likely continue to be solid through the end of next year. But my goodness, Beltran has been flat-out awful, injury or not. There's only so many double plays and groundouts I can stand to watch. He's supposed to be the big hired gun. Hmph. I'm not impressed.

Phooey. Beltran's got a piddly 15 GIDP - Pujols is tops in the NL with 25. But it gets worse - also in the top 4 are Molina and Holliday, while the Cardinal fans have to suffer thru a possible record setting year - currently 141 GIDP. Next higest team is Baltimore at 117. Record is 166 NL, 174 MLB.
And to stay on topic - what I watched today
Cardinals beat Pittsburgh 5-4.
and some Rams pre-season game, hurricane coverage.
