I know you're going to think I'm overreacting, but Bochy or BB HAVE to be gone next year. It is unacceptable that none of these fu cking idiots know a thing about moving a runner over. Or perhaps, MAYBE JUST PERHAPS, ITS TIME TO MOVE ON FROM BRANDON **** CRAWFORD.

I just made a post saying the same thing. Not as short or sweet though

Crawford has had a down year defensively, but a down year for him is still very good. And his offensive numbers have improved since the world series year in 2012. I see no reason why he can't be worth a couple wins again next year.

I think you two have unrealistic expectations for this team. Posey has regressed since his MVP year, and the pitching staff is crumbling. This is where I expected them to be at the beginning of the season. The numbers just don't back up what you're saying.

And skater, you would have a batter bunt every damn time there's someone on first. On top of the overwhelming evidence that says the sacrifice bunt is ineffective as a general practice, I'd like to say that if we're ever in the position to ask Buster Posey to bunt instead of do what he does best, we're ****.

How is leading the league in errors at his position "still very good"? He isn't even hitting .230 this year, and if you take away pre-June numbers (when he was hitting near .290), I'm not even sure he's hitting .200 since then.

His defensive metrics still count him as a net positive. Admittedly, he's about middle of the pack in terms of qualified shortstops, so maybe "very good" is a stretch. But he has value if he can do what he did last year. Especially for half a million dollars a year.

I'm not saying he's overpaid, I'm saying he's a main reason why our team has struggled to win against anyone other than the worst of MLB in the last 2 months (and even then, getting beat by some of them). Like Timmy, he should be given a few days off to recollect himself, like we did with Morse. Stop throwing him out there because there's no one else, when at least give a week to Duffy and see what he can do.

So, uh, stuff.

And by that I mean "things". Or "thing".

I knew it was going to be some cheap little hit.

Damn, he strikes out 3 in a row after that too. Son of a bitch. What was the count when he hit it?

What a masterpiece thrown by Bumgarner last night, too bad he couldn't get the perfect game or at least a no-hitter.

I think Buster wants to make the playoffs.
