Posted November 16, 2006 at 4:07 pmI’m going away for just over a week, so there won’t be any updates in that time, sorry. But I promise I’ll finish looking at the Giants outfield when I get back.

Posted November 16, 2006 at 4:06 pm And, by wheeled warriors, I am not referring to Bonds, Finley and Alou trying to cover the outfield in wheelchairs. No, I’m talking about the mighty Jayce!

Posted November 9, 2006 at 12:45 pm The Giants essentially had four starting outfielders in 2006. And the performances were mixed.

Lois Lame hit .262/.324/.396 in 573 ABs.
An inanimate carbon rod hit .246/.320/.394 in 426 ABs.
Basically, Barry and Moises hit like the stars they are, but [...]
