...Frandsen probably lost for Season
Mike Lovell - talkin' Giants baseball
The Giants were beaten today by the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-5.
In what promises to be the outcome of the early season, the Giants had too few hits, running errors and defensive problems which continue the devastating formula for losing that has all too familiar this spring with the 2008 Giants.
There were some highlights. Fred Lewis and Benjie Molina both homered in the loss and after initial difficulties Nick Pereira pitched relatively well. Pereira is destined to pitch for the Fresno Grizzlies. Giants' new pick-up Jose Castillo went 1-4 while playing thirdbase. The Giants Cactus League record is now 8-19-2. This is not the kind of record to create a lot of excitement.
In a minor league game, Kevin Frandsen ruptured an achilles tendon and is feared lost for the season. The Giants just got a lot thinner in already anemic offense.
Stranger things have happened, but looks bleak my fellow Giants fans. The season is merely a week away and this team looks a long way from being near contending status.
Prove me wrong Giants!
