Haven't heard from Gary or Don in a long time.
Or Mordy, for that matter.
Anyone know what's up?

Mordy is fine, although disgusted with the way the Giants are playing. Unfortunately the other two I don’t know about.

That would have been my guess, Mark.
Me? I get frustrated, and then angry, and then furious at them, and I need to vent.
The board is the only vehicle I have for that.
Outside of the bullpen, which really is in over its head, many of our position players don't look like they are even trying very hard.
Crawford comes to mind.
Belt is another. His OBP has never been this low, as far as I can remember.

Wow, Don! I'm so sorry to hear that.
Nothing too serious, I hope...

Boagie- Stuff it Randy, nothing wrong with a fan showing some excitement.

Yeah Mordy was fooled by the hot streak. I’m normally an optimist but I didn’t see it as sustainable when I looked at the roster. Mordy is very optimistic about the offseason though and he thinks Zaidi will plug up all the holes. Again, I don’t see it, there’s just too much money tied up in unproductive players.

Let's not rag on Mordy without including me in that ragging.
I, too, was foolishly fooled by the hot streak, thinking that our veteran core, Posey, Crawford, Belt and Longoria, actually had what it took to make a run.
Talk about dumb.
On the 'dumb' scale, I blew the top off.
I should have known better.

“I Should have known better.” Speaking of Beatles songs, Tyler Rogers enters the game to “Yellow Submarine” for obvious reasons. He said it was suggested by Will Smith.

Don,so glad to hear from ya and I'm so happy you are ok. As far as .e fooling for the giants streak ,I have to say I still wanted the team to trade madbum and smith. I'm always a dreamer because that's my nature but believe me I saw the flaws in the team and I knew they would falter. It was a hell of a ride though as improbable as it was. Like RX said I am VERY optimistic about the off season. Trades like melancin and pomerantz show me what ZH can do. I can't wait what he an do during an entire off season. Overall I give him a B+

B+?
Considering he had nada to work with, Mordy, so I'm going to grade him a little higher, with an A-.
Like you, I'm very optimistic about the off season, especially since he's now had a full season under his belt.
I'd like to see him clean house, which is what Randy and I wanted him to do last year.
And by clean house, I mean move Belt and maybe Crawford.
But since they won't even let Shaw see the field, that's not likely to happen.
Still, it's what I'd do.
See ya'all in 2 weeks as I'm off to Alaska tomorrow morning.
I'll check in when and if I can.
