As you know, Pablo Sandoval has a lot of problems, mostly legal. But his position on the Giants isn't so hot either, based on excessive weight around the tummy area. I had blogged earlier in the season that he seems to have gained back the weight he lost, or most [...]
I just got home from the Giants game -- not so hot for the Giants. The big topic, as you can imagine, was Pablo Sandoval and his busted left hamate bone. Before I knew about this guy I didn't know from hamate bones. Did you? Anyway, lots of media folk [...]
I preface this strange post by saying I did not go to spring training this year and did not see the Giants in person. Got that? I'm watching on TV the Giants' slugfest against the Rockies in preparation for covering the Giants' Friday home opener. And I notice -- I [...]
Grant here. I was lounging in the Cohn Zohn this morning – talking on the Cohn Phohn, reclining on the Cohn Throhn – and a comment-starter popped in my head. The Giants have a real problem against left-handed pitchers. Last night after the game my dad posted his impressions of [...]
For my Tuesday column I wrote about Pablo Sandoval, the Panda. He was a disappointment last season and he suffered for it, lost his starting job. Part of the reason for his down season was his weight, as in he was bloated, as in he ate everything in sight. It's [...]
Pablo Sandoval made a routine play today against the White Sox in Scottsdale Stadium and that was just great -- yes, I arrived in Arizona today. A guy laid down a bunt along the third base line, bunted for a base hit. Sandoval ran toward the ball, as he should, [...]
Pablo Sandoval will not start in tonight's Game 6. He's not starting even though the Phils are pitching a right hander, Roy Oswalt, and Sandoval hits better against righties. This shows how far Sandoval has fallen. Bruce Bochy does not trust him to hit and certainly he doesn't trust Sandoval [...]
I don't yet know what the Giants starting lineup is today (Saturday). I hope Pablo Sandoval is not in it. I hope Juan Uribe is playing third and Edgar Renteria is at shortstop. I think Sandoval is going downhill. I think what he did and did not do this season [...]
Here is my column on Pablo Sandoval. I'm pretty hard on the guy, although he is not the only reason the Giants lost Game 2. It's just that his play has deteriorated. He is not fielding or hitting well and he committed the error that allowed the Braves back into [...]
It's 11:30 pm and I just sent in my Saturday column. In it I suggest the Giants bench Pablo Sandoval, move Juan Uribe to third and play Edgar Renteria at short. I don't believe Sandoval is steady enough to depend on at this time. He committed the killer error that [...]
