My San Francisco Giants losing massively. They are on an 8 game losing streak. And it's not like they have a terrible pitching staff. Matt Cain won rookie of the year last year and Noah Lowry is up and coming. Combine those two with Barry Zito and you have an extremely solid pitching staff. The problem is run support. They have lost their last few games (excluding game 2 of the Boston series) by 3 runs or less. And now I am hearing rumors of them trading Barry Bonds. This team is driving me crazy this year
You shouldn't be that surprised that they suck

Indeed they are, and when they put in back up guys they are fresh out of AAA

Oh, bitch, bitch, bitch... YOU don't have to deal with the White Sox, who are losing because of their fucking bullpen and lazy defense. I think those idiots are being bribed by the mafia to lose games on purpose. Of the 18 games they've lost in their last 23, the bullpen has to have been responsible for at least 75% of the losses. Now that's agonizing.
Example: The last two losses. On Tuesday, with a 5-4 lead in the 5th, the Sox had to pull Jon Danks because the kid needs to throw 30 pitches to get out of an inning. Things are going okay until the 7th when Ryan Bukvich (some bum out of AAA) gags a homer. There goes the lead, but they're still tied. In the 9th, the Marlins tag on two more runs to make it a 7-5 game. Matt Thornton, who had pitched the 8th just fine, got torched in the 9th without getting a single batter out.
Now, today's game: The Sox have a 2-1 lead going to the 8th. Jon Garland lets the first two batters on, making it first and second (one of which was on a fielding error by Uribe, which could have made it 1 out, 1 on). So, we go fetch Jenks, our closer, to take on Matt Treanor. Jenks is about the only guy who's made it through relatively unscathed through this stretch. What happens? The jackass gives up a three-run shot to Treanor to make it a 4-2 game. The Sox get one back in the bottom half, but then Jenks decides to cough up another run. The Sox get one more back with a homer by Konerko, but by then it's far too late. Sox lose 5-4.
This is the theme for pretty much every Sox loss in this stretch.

Even beating us in the cross-town series won't save you. Btw, what was Hendry thinking when he unloaded Barrett?

Oh man, the storm is over. We beat the fucking Yankees yesterday. And I was there for all 13 glorious innings

I'm thinking it had something to do with that little tussle between him and Zambrano. Thats all I can think of we didn't get shit for Barret and I don't think he should have been traded. Worst of all Zambrano will probably be gone at the end of the season anyways.

Just bring up everyone from your triple A staff and try to find a diamond in the ruff to build around. (not old players)
