Benjie Hits a Triple!

Just a couple brief thoughts from the game last night ....

1) Lincecum could win another Cy Young this year -- his changeup is one of the best that I've seen, with movement running down and in to right handed hitters.

2) Enjoy the offensive explosion -- they'll be few and far between.

3) Fred Lewis looks lost at the plate -- he didn't have a quality swing all night.

4) Brian Wilson is not as good as he's supposed to be -- he has great movement on his slider, but he needs to be able to throw it for a strike to make hitters look for something other than his fastball.

5) Keep playing Nate -- production should earn playing time.

6) Send Velez to the minors -- he's overmatched and serves no purpose on the roster.

7) Bochy has at least this one thing right -- just try to win each series and don't look any farther than that.

Winning the series with the Dodgers is a great way to end April. Overall, a positive first month of the season.

  1. Velez would be in the minors if it wasn't for the injury to Torres.

  2. The fact that he is even on our roster at all is embarassing. He should have been sent down, despite the injury, and we should have called up somebody else.

  3. Who? I would rather Frandsen stay down and play everyday than come up and sit in the dugout watching.
