1:05 PM - Giants @ Angels - Jonathan Sanchez V. Nick ADENHART

No Barroid in tow. King Ade-Rock makes a bid to be a member of the major league rotation. He lines up with the #5 slot and home opener. Him or Holy Moseley.

Pregame-Gasm Guesses

1. Yes or No: Will the Angels score First?

2. Which Angel will be the first to reach 1st Base?

3. Yes or No: will any Angel have at least 5 At-Bats in the game?

Here's the Baseball Crank's

breakdown of the four teams in the American League West . . .

The Angels are not a superpower like the Yankees and Red Sox of recent years, but they are a team with an embarrassment of riches in terms of depth, and they stand astride the AL West in a forbidding pose. An awful lot needs to go right for the Mariners, their only real competition, to dethrone the Angels . . . .

whatever

probably wasn't the best idea on Speier's part, and i would've been upset too.
but it's really not a huge deal.

Unless I were in the perfect mood, I'd be upset too.

Anyway, I'm sure Speier didn't mean any harm by it. He was just being a pest.

Pitching probables today

After Adenhart is Jason Bulger, Rich Thompson and Darren O’Day.

Their performance today could be an indicator of who will be joining the bullpen staff.

Who is this Sanchez fellow on los gigantes?

He has 5K's through 3 innings. Adenhart has 3 through 3.

Pitching prospect

Big arm good in the minors, not so good in the Majors to date as a starter/reliever.

Sea-at-ha-ha-ha that's funny.

Sounds like...

He's gonna be in their rotation too. Not like it's that hard to crack though.

Evans and Hunter both fail to reach base

but I can't tell you how, I was distracted. 2 outs.

thats been the talk.

the 5th starter is going to go on the home opener

Sorry WTY, opening day in Minnesota

Black Magic will get start at home opener

by SoCalWine on Mar 20, 2008 2:48 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Santana is the number 4 starter

i believe Mike's said something to that effect.

i'm pretty sure the 5 starter is getting the home opener

by howiestheman on Mar 20, 2008 2:49 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Probably Moseley, I would venture to guess...

but could be Adenhart, if Sciosc chooses to keep DMose in the 'pen.

he might not

just to make a point.
he still thinks that Black Magic is the greatest pitcher in our rotation, and that his home/road spilts are a fluke :/

by howiestheman on Mar 20, 2008 2:56 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Observant HOWIESTHEMAN.

Outside the box..........Consider MAGIC SANTANA as the opening day starter in Minnesota!

I believed a few days ago...

that Aybar has sewn up the starting job.

No, Steve Marek.

The Angels basically emptied the bench in the top of the 7th.

Don't tell me that after all the positive strokes we posted for Aybar...

Snippet:

"Coming to Giants camp?" Huh? Maybe it is old news on there...

hahahaha

Matthews has a bruised butt.

"Matthews had what was described as a "bruised left gluteus" after making contact with the hard dirt at home plate with a swipe of the plate while he was scoring from first on Guerrero's double into the left-field corner in the first inning."
