Official Giants at Phillies series thread - starts 7/21/14

Sanchez, Arias, Adrianza, Sanchez, Blanco, Colvin.... Awful....

Nice win.... Kontos and Affeldt pitched well.... Saw Timmy get the first save of his career.... And Crawford with the game winner.... Sabean has to get bench help.... Need Bum to handle games like tonight.... Staff ace against a struggling team.... Have to stack up the wins.... Cause the Dodgers set up their post all star rotation so the Giants would see their top three pitchers in this weekends series.... Tough sledding....

We're pulling away. No reason to get cocky though. Keep playing hard.

Awesome job by Bum.... That's what your best pitcher has to do.... Especially, with a worn out bullpen.... Pence has been a true leader.... Clutch and an absolute gamer.... A guy that's easy to root for.... He brings it every single inning of every single game.... Chance to sweep which would be huge.... Makes this weekends series slightly less of a white knuckle ride.... Hudson can do it.... Hudson should do it.... About time to give Uggla the shot at 2nd.... Scutaro is damaged.... And we've seen enough of Arias and Adrianza.... Not a lot to lose....

Hamels was too good.... And the Giants lineup was awful.... Blanco, Arias and Adrianza are a recipe for disaster.... Adrianza with the leg injury.... I would 60 day DL him ASAP.... Anything to get him out of the lineup.... Anything.... Just take the option away.... Eliminate the temptation.... Play with 8.... Anything.... This does open the door for a potential Uggla call up.... He really won't even have to do much.... Just put his pants on right.... And wear his glove on the correct hand.... Job probably won.... Brutally tough task ahead of Giants this weekend....
