Awwww schnapps...

Pence breaks forearm when getting HBP. Expected out for 6-8 weeks, and with expected recovery time of getting timing for his swing back too, at least a month of regular season might be no Hunter Pence!

Even less power in the lineup now...
Let's now see how Bochy juggles the lineup now. Pagan batting third anyone?!??

If there's a manager in baseball that can handle this type of crap it's surely Bochy. Regardless of the outcome, I'm just stoked baseball's almost back!

And here's a bit from Schulman's interview with Pence this morning:

Better at the beginning than middle/end.

Just have to stay close within the lead.

Gunna try to go to the battle of the bay game(s) this season

Look at how poorly the Giants are doing right now. Last in hitting (team batting average of .235) and last in pitching (team era over 6). Yah I know it's only pre-season, but everyone's been complaining that there's no power in the lineup and now Bochy is talking about it too.

If this is a sign of things to come, Giants won't make the playoffs either.

its an odd year.. its not our year :lol::lol: :joker: :sad:

Very true :laugh:

That leaves the Padres. :lol:

You can get some bats in a trade.
i am not even watching Spring ball. I am just looking at the teams from last year to now. Dodgers moved sideways at best, more likely went down, Padres moved up, and Giants went down a little bit, not by a whole lot.

If Matt Cain can get back to 2012 form then our pitching staff would be pretty strong

Is Vogelsong trying to look like Brian Wilson?

welp 1-1

A's also lost last night
