**2nd Annual Official '09 SF GIants reg. season Thread**

[antdogg2390]

Tell me why Freddy Sanchez has been on the team for 2 weeks and he looked the most pumped out of everyone out there after the walk off?? Glad hes on the team.

yea exactly, happy he's a giant

 

[antdogg2390]

the Los Angeles area produces so many big leaguers that its possible up to 20% of your Ginats were Dodgers fans growing up....................

LA, Texas and Florida are some of the highest producers of Big Leaguers....

interesting fact, but im glad i wasnt a dodger fan growing up

but i guess it took the Dodgers coming to town to get SF to sell out

as you can see per the link...........Yankees, Cubs, and Dodgers fans travel (so much for the fairwhether fans comment)

I guess I'm seeing things differently, because I see nothing but a bunch of bandwagoners.
You mention Yankees, Cubs, Dodgers, Phillies. NY City has a population of ~8 million+, Chicago ~3million, LA ~4million, Philadelphia has a population of ~1.5million+. San Francisco only has ~800,000, even though the Bay Area as a whole has ~7million, stretching all the way from San Jose to Santa Rosa.

And the Giants have been doing real shitty for the past several years yet still have attracted many fans.

LA DODGERS never has any true facts/info. he's a falsifier.

[prodigy91]

la dodger you a phony bruh, one again you get your ass handed to you

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

sanchez used to play for the BOSTON RED SOX..............im sure this isnt the first time he has played in a packed house...............

but i guess it took the Dodgers coming to town to get SF to sell out

http://espn.go.com/mlb/attendance

as you can see per the link...........Yankees, Cubs, and Dodgers fans travel (so much for the fairwhether fans comment)

you can also see that if players want to play in a packed house the Yankees, Dodgers, and Phillies have the best addendance in MLB

Boston has a lower attendance because their stadium is tiny........but they are at over 100% capacity every game

thats an interesting link.. but isnt dodger stadium bigger?

los angeles area is bigger, but if we're talking norcal or bay area a major portion of those kids were giants or a's fans growing up. Like Troy Tulowitzki was an A's fan growing up..

 

[VanD]

thats an interesting link.. but isnt dodger stadium bigger?

he had it sorting by a skewed value that favors larger stadiums. boston was near 10th on his list even tho they sell 101% capacity. LA DODGERS = FALSIFIER

 

[DubbC415]

boston has the smallest stadium in baseball. just food for thought.


and playing 32 games in 2 years in Boston gets easily washed out by playing 5+ years in Pittsburgh.

even better, how about going from the Red Sox to the Pirates the year they win the WS.

 

[LA Dodgers]

la dodger you a phony bruh, one again you get your ass handed to you

how is that? please explain?? i really want to see this.................

i posted FACTS...............and the link to the facts (unlike many of you that talk out of your asses)

 

[LA Dodgers]

thats an interesting link.. but isnt dodger stadium bigger?

yes, Dodger Stadium is bigger.............whats your point.........they are competing with the Angels..............who happen to be a very good team and in the same market....................yet still the Dodgers pull many fans throught the gates every game.......

for the dodgers 40,000 fans is a down day.........for SF 40,000 fans is a sold out game.............

los angeles area is bigger, but if we're talking norcal or bay area a major portion of those kids were giants or a's fans growing up. Like Troy Tulowitzki was an A's fan growing up..

of course...............but i said that FL, TX, and LAare the areas with teh most ML Players...............therefore it is highly possible that Giants or any teams players growing up were Dodgers fans...........thats all

yes i know NorCal has put out some big names in the past and recently (troy, jrollins, burrell, jp howell, dlee, cc, pedroia, ect...........but NorCal in general isnt a big pool to draw from...................

this proves how greatly retarded/ignorant you are. self admitted.

 

[ReKz]

We're getting close...

Rosters are going to expand soon, who do y'all think is gonna be called up?

Just going off the current 40-man roster...

I think the following are definitively going to be called up:

• LHP Alex Hinshaw
• RHP Waldis Joaquin
• INF Kevin Frandsen
• OF John Bowker

These are guys I'd like to see:

• LHP Jesse English
• INF Matt Downs
• INF Ryan Rohlinger
• RHP Kevin Pucetas (not on roster)
• RHP Steve Edlefsen (not on roster)
• C Buster Posey (not on roster)

 

[prodigy91]

Fuck that I'd rather see matt downs get called up rather than frandsen, I would not mind bowker getting called up again, dude deserves it....

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

• Buster Posey (not on roster)

^^^^^

 

[VanD]

i dont want buster to lose his ROY eligibility so if/when we bring him up we should do it after he's in the clear; PABLO woulda been unanimous ROY this year

 

[ReKz]

September call-up's don't count against ROY eligibility...Pablo got called up in August and went 15 AB's over the limit :ermm:

Edit: Over the last couple of days we've signed our 2nd, 5th, and 6th round picks...good shit

Tommy Joseph (2nd round):

unanimous??? even if he were eligible.......there would still be 2 months to play

[prodigy91]

zito already gave up a home run

way to start the fucking game zito

and got damn the mets uniforms are hurt as fuck

 

[VanD]

lol at the uniform comment, those were NY Giants influenced or replica'd. not sure exactly, its tough to find NY Giants uni's.

and

at FALSIFIER trying to argue against PABLO winning ROY. even if mccutchen's numbers were closer to PABLO, which they arent, he's on a terrible losing team compared to a teams MVP in the playoff race.

FALL BACK FALSIFIER

PABLO is 2nd in the NL in AVG and 5th overall in the Majors = UNANIMOUS ROY
