The more I think about it, the more I think Matt Kemp is tailor made for our lineup. If you replaced Gomes with Kemp that would be a scary lineup, but I'd move Rolen down one slot to put Kemp right behind The Bruce. I think he makes $7mil this year, so I'd hope we could at least afford him for half a season. Also, playing left field instead of center might help him with the hammy troubles he's been having this season.

I think both teams will be trying to take a few pitches tonight. Sanchez is having the same control problems EV had prior to his AAA stint.

Giants lineup:

Torres, CF
Tejada, 3B
Schierholtz, RF
Huff, 1b
Ross, LF
Crawford, SS
Burriss, 2B
Stewart, C
Sanchez, P

We may be seeing a lot more of those tonight from both sides

4 pitch walk.

Ball 5

Ball 6 2-4 CS though.

6 balls and an out!

when edinson can't throw strikes why would a guy try to steal? dumb play by the giants.

Edgar has Jeter range if Jeter was 4 years older.

i couldn't see the replay but it did seem like Phillips was closer to a ball hit on the shortstop side of 2B than was Renteria
