It's easy to get excited about the last Month of Giants Baseball. Buster Posey, Who many have nicked named "THE TRUTH" has given the Giants hope for a bright future. Aubrey Huff has done everything but sent Limousines to the guys homes to take them to the park. Uribe has become an all-star in Renteria's absence. (If Renteria isn't Wally Pipped the Giants are fools) Panda has gotten his stroke back, Andres Torres has played everywhere in the outfield (WITH AUTHORITY) while hitting .300 and showing off that Gazelle speed on the base paths.
"NOTE TO BOCHY; don't put Torres in the line up BEHIND PANDA OR BENJIE.
But in the last month, the Giants have played 4th place Colorado, Last place Arizona (15 under .500) Oakland (.263 as a team and 28th in HR's) Baltimore (Worst of the worst,for now) Pittsburgh (last place) and struggled with Cincinnati.
Tonight the GIANTS face the Toronto Blue Jays, a team that hit 50 home runs in the month of May alone. The Jays are currently in 4th place, but in any other division would probably be in first place. The Jays are sporting some great young arms in Ricky Romero and Shawn Marcum.
The GIANTS are going to need to be playing as a team tonight. If they're not, Toronto will expose their holes. We will see if the FRONT OFFICE can straighten out who they need to keep and who they need to show the door. (no matter how much they've been paid) Then need to cut the crap with Posey not catching. They need to put Aubrey at first where he belongs and they need to fine tune the outfield with outfielders. (This means getting Aaron Rowand back in the saddle, or trade his ass) Perhaps the GIANTS could package Molina, Rowand and Renteria to Florida for Cameron Maybin.
One can only wish, right?
