Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION
I say we will win 7. With Cueto pitching 3 times on this trip I like the chances of goin 7-4

Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION
I'm going to revise. Their ace starting the road trip with a loss is a bad omen. They'll win four games in California and go into the All-Star break in third place.
In SF: 1-3 (though, where they get the one win is tough to see) In LA: 1-2 In SD: 2-2 |

Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION
Wow, tonight was like the lost decade all over. 1 hit over 9 innings (a single) in San Fran. Don't get me wrong, San Fran has incredible pitching, but that was a pathetic performance tonight. It also soured me a bit on Frazier. That ball misjudgement was bad and was worth a run. Cueto wasn't amazing, but he was still good despite not having his best stuff. I just hope the other pitchers in the staff come up big.

Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION
4-7.
They won't be pumping the offense with cheap HR out there and just don't get on base enough to score much otherwise.

Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION
Ya gotta drive the ball in these cavernous parks. If you loft a ball to land without a bounce at 350 feet, that's an easy out, not a home run like GABP. It takes a minute to get used to, which is harder when you are facing good pitching. I hope they start barreling the ball tonight. Frazier is one of the best at that, I hope he gets back out there in LF tonight.

Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION

Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION
The offense has been mostly MIA for the last 13 games, more of the norm right now than the exception it seems.
4-7 would be pretty encouraging. |

Re: West Coast Swing, 2012 EDITION
At first I said we would win 7 of 11. However I think now 6-5 or 5-6 is more likely. The matchups we have this weekend seem to be good for us. Even if we only win 1 in SF, The Dodgers are playing about as bad as anyone right now. We need 2 of 3 there and we could easily take 3 of 4 in SD. That right there is 6 wins. I would be happy with a 5-6 trip. If we took 3 of 4 from SD at least we can say we had a nice series before the break. Seems like alot of our guys need a rest, I just hope we can finish strong here in the first half.
