The Giants tried their hardest to blow this game but they didn't. They won
9-7. The Giants blew a four run lead in the top of the sixth but the Giants roared back to get a five run lead in the bottom of the frame. Then in the 7th, Eyre and Hawkins tried to blow it. Eyre was responsible for one run while Hawkins had two under him. They avoid the sweep but jesus christ this bullpen plain sucks.
Looks like Jesse Foppert is on his way to the big team again. He has been battling blisters but this team needs himand badly. This team needs to skake things up and now. Tucker should be sent down and we should try our hardest to trade him. He went 3-4 today to raise his average to .236. I am sure some team needs a left handed bat on their bench. Linden has 17 homers in Triple A and deserves to play at the big league level. Our rookies have shined this year. Ellison and Niekro have been spectacular. So to mix things up we should:
Release or trade Tucker
Bring up Foppert and Linden
Make Eyre and Munter the primary relievers
Possibly try to trade Torrealba(Knoedler is doing well in AAA-.291)
Get more bullpen help-Brower might go
