Anaheim Angels 5, Giants 2; Kansas City Royals 13, Giants 3
Mike Lovell - TalkinGiantsBaseball
After watching the Giants play the Angels on television today, the stark reality of this years' Giants team was painfully brought forth. In both games, the Giants managed a mere five runs on a combined ten hits in eighteen innings. There wasn't a lot of highlights to raise optimism for Giants faithful. Tyler Walker and Brian Wilson looked good, and after an abyssmal first inning Matt Cain looked fine as well. This team does needs some bats in the worst way. Dan Ortmeier is in a slump...this doesn't fare well for his hopes of playing this season and the defense on the "A" team looked dubious at best.
It would be major surprise to this reporter if the Giants do not lose a hundred games this season. Hopefully, this prediction will be in error; however it doesn't look good. No hitting, poor defense and mediocre pitching is not a formula for success.
Humm Baby...this year's Giants are not! This will be a chance for the young players to get their feet wet and get MLB experience. Giants, prove this reporter wrong for the Giants fan within him!
