I wish the Giants would switch the road uni font to this. Its currently on the jackets. The small block print font we normally use on the roads is pretty generic.

I really like the way this flows, it's a very classy look.

didn't we have 2 road unis last year? the second was just the SF symbol right?

I think you might be right. I like it when the city name is spelled out instead of just the SF.

All three games with the A's. CSNBA tonight, I think channel 11 in the bay tomorrow night, and then CSNCA which is the A's TV on Saturday.

I just saw the announcement that Bochy and Sabean have been extended through 2016. A job well done gets rewarded, so congratulations to both.

Just saw this as well.

Yep, just tuned in and saw this. Good to hear IMOTBPH

These guys really seem to have a great deal of respect for each other, and their styles also compliment each other. During the press conference, Bochy talked about how fiery Sabean is, and he recounted Sabean coming into the locker room in 2010 to call out the pitchers when they weren't performing. Sabean called Bochy a tough SOB who doesn't come across that way.

I'm glad these two are around for the next four years. The continuity I think will lead to continued success.

where is posey ranked?

20. Chase Headley
19. Troy Tulowitzki
18. Bryce Harper
17. Adrian Beltre
16. Stephen Strasburg
15. Joe Mauer
14. Felix Hernandez
13. Evan Longoria
12. Matt Kemp
11. Giancarlo Stanton
10. Andrew McCutchen

8. Robinson Cano
7. Joey Votto
6. David Price
5. Clayton Kershaw
4. Miguel Cabrera
3. Justin Verlander
2. Buster Posey
1. Mike Trout

Cano #8?

Beltre at 17 is ridiculous

This is based on now AND later. Its front office execs and scouts ranking players. Beltre is old. Mauer shouldnt be top 20, but its a pretty fair list.

Good old Kruk and Kuip. Baseball in AT&T. This may get my mind off something that happened a few months ago.

Led NL in RBIs on the second worst NL team last year? Plus plays 3rd which has become very weak lately... Zim long Sandoval wright aroid freese all are injury prone and not the same. Only longoria and Pablo I have faith in forward to be the same. IMO.

Did you miss the 2012 season?

Headley had a ton of potential already, and after SD hired Phil Plantier as hitting coach, he helped him alter his swing to drive the ball more. Whatever they did turned him into an MVP candidate.

31 HR, 115 RBIs, 17 SB, .286 avg., 95 R, etc in the most dead hitters yard in baseball.
