Giants called up Eugenio Velez and Jesus Guzman.

They sent down Matt Downs and John Bowker.

LOL at the lineup. Is Bochy trying to make Lincecum lose?

Torres CF, Winn RF, Sandoval 3B, Molina C, Renteria SS, Guzman 1B, Velez LF, Uribe 2B, Lincecum P

Was just about the post that. Still a bad lineup really. Why bat Garko after Lewis?

Mets up 4-0 on the Rockies.

Why bat Lewis after Molina? Lewis is one of the fastest players on the team, and Bengie is the slowest man in baseball. Since Nate is now on the DL, Sandoval should be batting 4th, Garko should be batting 5th, and Molina 6th.

A home run from a second baseman! Freddie who?

I posted a link in the Garko thread that states that the deal is essentially agreed upon, but the Giants med staff are checking out Sanchez' knee. Obviously if it's not 100%, no deal.

0-0 in the top of the 9th.

As posted in another thread, the Giants reportedly found nothing seriously wrong with Sanchez's knee, just a day to day type of injury. Looks like the deal is going through.

0-0 into the 10th.

Cain pitches 9 innings.

Enjoy the sweep.

Anyone else watching CSNBA? They seem to be pretty sure that F Sanchez is coming here... I think so too.
