RossInfoMan Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 These are the probable starters for the Giants series: Thursday, 4:05: Penny (2-1, 2.36) vs. Williams (3-1, 3.95) Friday, 10:15: Willis (3-0, 0.71) vs. Correia (0-0, 4.50) Saturday, 4:05: Pavano (2-0, 3.33) vs. Schmidt (1-2, 5.63) Sunday, 4:05: Oliver (2-1, 8.06) vs. Reuter (0-3, 6.12) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rferry Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 We might have the upperhand in three of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer_fran Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 We should take the first 2 and if we take 1 of the last 2 that would just be icing on the cake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins2003 Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 we should have a "how many walks to Bonds" poll for the series. :brigginbounce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FishFanInPA Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Marlins pitchers are too cocky to walk Bonds on purpose. I sense he'll hit a couple in the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 I don't think that's a good idea. I don't think its a good idea to walk guys unless it is completely necessary... Bonds is Human not like he's gonna hit a homer every single at bat.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Juanky Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Dontrelle had success against him before.....I think Willis should pitch to him and play the rest by ear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rferry Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 He still produces an out 60% of the time. Pitch to him but very carefully. Actually I wouldn't mind if Penny went right after him. Throwing fastballs down the middle of the plate and throwing inside. Bonds hasn't seen pitches like that in three years. It might trip him up.

Shamrock Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 He still produces an out 60% of the time. Pitch to him but very carefully. Actually I wouldn't mind if Penny went right after him. Throwing fastballs down the middle of the plate and throwing inside. Bonds hasn't seen pitches like that in three years. It might trip him up. I agree with RFerry here. The man is the most incredible hitter the game has ever seen, fact. However, if he wasn't walked (intentionally-unintentionally) so much the Giant wouldn't score as many runs. If theres nobody one base, pitch to him. Other than that be very careful...thats all you can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason they don't do that. Walk him if for no other reason than to show discust with steroid deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just locating your pitches and being care not to leave anything catching too much of the plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Giants win 2 of the next three, then you have to change your screen name to my liking for one month. If the Marlins win 2 of the next three than i'll change the screen name to your liking for a month (after the other two choose for two months, you'd get the third month) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
