    I thought if it hits the line it is a home run?

    It went over the line in the replay. Umps are blind.

    Getting shut down by Lincecum is one thing, but getting shut out by Zito justfies hitting the Panic button and pushing for trades

    I'm mad at myself for not knowing about this kid....

    This guy looks like a franchise changer.

    Tank time.

    Yep, when they zoomed in on the replay u could clearly see the ball vanish for a moment meaning it went behind the yellow line. Those Umps are morons or too dumb to zoom in like the FSNH camera crew.

    pushing for trades? Unless they were crazy, they knew this was coming. Especially without Berkman

    That's the -last- thing we need to do. It's going to be a tough season, but were trying to get our Farm system back to a respectful level, and you don't do this by signing type A free agents in the off season, or trading some of your prospects.

    By trades he means.

    Berkman GTFO
    Oswalt GTFO
    Lee stop liking to lose so much and GTFO

    Trade those 3 and our farm system should be decent.....

    Well, we're 1/81 of the way there...

    Obviously, the current state of this team means we will be watching some horrid baseball for the foreseeable future.

    No more finding washups to fill up holes. Raze the foundation, then rebuild it.
