Why All the #Giants Comebacks? Are They Really That Good?

So, the Giants did it again yesterday - an unlikely inside the park homer by Pagan in the bottom of the tenth.  We've sort of gone into this before in a recent blog but here's a little more detail why the Giants are able to come back so much - and hit so well for a team with previously weak-hitting players.

First off, you'll note, the Giants only struck out three times during the game, and walked six times.
The Rockies, in contrast , struck out six times and walked only once. This is key and it's been a pattern this year and in recent years. Note also that the Giants were , last we checked, in the Top Three for teams with fewest stikeouts.. They've also improved their walks. Sandoval, who used to lead the team in strikeouts, has 'magically' cut his strikeouts in half, as has Scutaro, since coming to the Giants from Colorado last year. (Even more 'magically' they've both improved their averages, significantly and even more amazing is that Sandoval has improved his homeruns. Similar patterns have taken place with other players on the team. One could accept Sandoval's achievement a littlel more if it weren't for the sudden display in homers
going back to last month of last season when he hit seven and this year when he already has eight. So, it's not just a question of cutting down on the swing, going for average.

Something else is giving these  Giants a boost. Scutaro never hit over .300 in his career, and , now at age 38, he's been hitting well over .300 since coming  to the Giants last year.

It's simple. When that 'something else' improves one's vision and hand-eye coordination, as well as bat speed and power, he's going to not strike out as much and get more hits, in our view.  And, in the bottom of the ninth - or tenth- when the pressure's on and a player is working extra hard and concentrating. he's going to work the pitcher. Normally you'd see some strikeouts against a good reliever like Bettencourt, but many of the Giants, with their magic powers,  just don't strike out anymore- or very rarely now.  The improved eyesight will also help draw walks, as Crawford did to lead off the tenth. Then Pagan will work the pitcher
to get in a hitters count,  if necessary, after the pitcher is already concerned with a runner on base.
And Pagan hits a long ball - he's hit more homers on the Giants in the bigger park - than in past years - to win the game.

The pattern has happened time and again and people just assume the Giants are great. It's that 'something else' we've talked about that the Giants have been using, off and on, since Bonds and Balco over a decade ago, in our opinion. And, amazingly, they're still getting away with it.   Of the current Giant crop of players who  played for other teams before the Giants,  they had  a combined average of around .250 before coming to the Giants. The Giants now , inexplicably, lead the league in hitting, at .271 as of  5/24, in what's considered a pitcher's ballpark.

It is our believe that Giants management continues to load up on the type of players who will play into this 'system,' if you know what me mean. (Eg a journeyman catcher, Quinonez (sp) ,of Venezuela (like Sandoval, Scutaro, the late Melky Cabrera, Blano, etc )  who had only one homer in his career, was another one of those late inning heroes with an unlikely homerun after being called up).  It's pretty incredible that a virtually different lineup won the  2012 series as compared to 2010.  Who thought the Giants could do it without Brian Wilson, Ross,  Huff of 2010, etc.  Only the names change, the results are the same. And don't be surprised to see the Giants win another series if they make it to the playoffs.  If they weren't paying their st struggling, starting pitchers so much you 'd likely see some changes for the similar type of 'system' pitchers like Mijares, Jean Meache(sp) , but don't be surprised to see Lincecum and co. magically transform themselves. 
(The new designer 'something else' is largely undetectable today with current 'testing,' which is done as little as once during a season, according to the new testing rules).  

PS  We've been getting great interest from these pages and the big site that was recently taken down, inexplicably. We have our feelings who was behind it- and it wasn't MLB.   Our previous website was recently taken down as  'spam' if you can believe that, and this one may too...   Looks like we may be victims of that whole government-related conspiracy against the media, sadly, performing a 'watchdog' service that people appreciate (we've had more readership  than on all our other non-sports website.

We have pleaded our case that it is anything but spam and, following the restoration rules, we hope we are treated fairly and site is restored within a day or two... If not, we know that somebody or some people   don't care for the good we are doing ( which is probably not helpful to the falsity they are foisting on their 'fans') . We will sit patiently for the next day or two and give every chance for the issue (which shouldn't be) to be resolved .  There are still   a few older posts at this site and other, related blogs up but we will leave it at that for now. Thank you, in advance , for your support, in our continued efforts to flesh out the darker side, and bring back   'old school'  truth  and honesty in playing the game the way it was meant to be played.

#GIANTS WINNING AT WILL - #SECRET SAUCE DIVULGED


 

Walk off a hero
They call them the GIANTS...  for good reason when Bonds was around. Now, the new designer drugs don't necessarily increase one's bulk anymore, but it's the same ol same ol  in San Francisco.... Just the secret sauce and names  have  changed..


Some people call them the Amazing Giants... but as we keep telling you (http://WhereDidYouGoJoeDimaggio1.blogspot.com , there's a lot more behind what meets the eye... Everyday we see more evidence of just what's REALLY going on behind the scenes that let the Giants keep winining...just as it with Barry Bonds for eight years until a couple reporters were finally brave enough to brake the story of Bonds 'flaxseed oil'  of which only a minority of Giants fans accepted - and Bonds and the Giants  weren't  so REAL outside of San Francisco. .  The Giants wouldn't be getting away with what's happening in any other city than liberal San Francisco.  Not to get too political here but The Giants are the Obamas of baseball. In this new era they can seemingly do no wrong .

And  it doesn't stop with the players . Even Giants management will do whatever it takes to win and sell fans, e.g. s  turning up the PA to cause more excitement , falsely claiming every game a sellout for two years, getting rid of people who know too much (trainer Stan Conte, minority owner Bill Neucomb), bringing in known PED users (and sometimes repeat offenders)... Now   the Giants are actually winning world series and seeming to win at will with players who weren't hitting much  until they came to the Giants, ie Scutaro, Blanco, Pagan, etc.  And the others are 'magically' raising their averages inexplicably to some... It's rather obvious when you look at all the numbers as we have in previous blogs (http://WhereDidYouGoJoeDimaggio1.blogspot.com


Just a few teasers:
The Giants , at last check , had the third  lowest strikeout team total  in the majors, withPablo Sandoval having less than 20 stirkeouts - only Scutaro has fewer among the regulars. A free swinger like Sandoval doesn't just suddenly stop striking out , while increasing his power (15 home runs in two months, since  last September, after hitting only seven the entire first 5 months of last year). Of course , lack of strikeouts are often indicative of other things, especially when combined with power. A guy who hits for homeruns with low strikeouts comes into question, ala McGwire and Bonds... and now Sandoval, and he's had some monsters since last September -- and in the difficult San Francisco park


-  Tim Lincecum seems to be suddenly back on track. After going downhill the past year and a half, seems like he's magically back on track. His pitching velocity has  magically improved  of late and  today he shut out the team with the best record in baseball, Lincecum shut out the Braves


Lincecum velocity up almost 2 mph, 90-92 mph this year as compared to last year

-  More to Giants management, if a fan does something to help the Giants, such as the fan who interferred with Atlanta's Upton making a catch, to help the Giants in the Atlanta game today (Sunday). With managerment and fan support and even that of Giants' homer announcers Kuiper and Kruko, interfering   fan , known as 'the Dog' for other things he has done, is a hero in San Francisco, not even kicked out of the game. Meanwhile, instead of calling the Giant player out for interference from the fan when it might have been a homer, the umpires 'compromised ' and gave him a double.


The Giants keep doing it with more than mirrors -   after all this time and we'll go into even more details very soon.  We'll tell you how a player can take the new designer PEDs one day and have it out of his system within hours.  That's why a guy  like Scutaro can be down for a few weeks and then suddenly start hitting - even homers as he did today - not bad for the little 38 year old second baseman from Venezuela. It's almost like they talk to each other and have a plan where some guys will have a few good days while others have bad ones, only to switch it up later so as to make
things not quite so noticeable as Scutaro's .370 average the last half of last year. WE WILL BRING OUT A LIST OF DOZENS OF PLAYERS WHO WERE EITHER INDICTED
OR TARGETED (by the Miami Dade recent investigation) AND OUR OWN 'SCIENTIFIC' RESEARCH OF PLAYERS PROBABLY USING TODAY - who can easily get away with it
with still lax drug testing in baseball (one can even call it a joke) . The Giants  have had as many PED  players as perhaps all the other teams in baseball, combined and we'll go into this...



Why do you think all those late inning heroics with players named Guillermo who had only one 
previous homer in his major league career.  And , after losing star players like Melky Cabrera and Brian Wilson, the Giants keep on winning.  Magically,  previous 'no name' players like
 Goudin, Mijares and Blanco suddenly became stars with the Giants.  Half the entire 2010 team
that won a world series is gone, yet the Giants are still winning.... We''ll keep bringing up the
evidence  and exposing the scandal, in our opinion,  for those of us baseball traditionalists and
honest folks who care about the grand old game and would like to see it played in such a manner
you don't have to always guess which Giants are using PEDs which days... 



AS LONG AS  NO REPORTERS OR SELIG (very doubtful) - or anyone - FINALLY PUT A STOP TO  THE GIANTS  OFF-FIELD ACTIVITIES  , THEY WILL CONTINUE TO WIN  INDEFINITELY. . MARK OUR WORDS Go back and read the rest of our science @ 
(http://RoadToSuccess.us   until our old site, www.WhereDid YouGoJoeMiaggio? is resotred,
hopefully.          Protect your files with Carbonite Online Backup

AN OPEN LETTER To The #Oakland As AND MOST ANY OTHER TEAM WHO PLAYS THE GIANTS


   
   I feel sorry for the Oakland As when they play the San Francisco Giants. Notice how Scutaro, Sandoval and some of the others suddenly raised their averages significantly, cut down on strikeouts, magically,  when Melky came around last year? Well, it's been going on a long time - like over 10 years since Bonds, and only in a city like San Francisco can they get away with it. Management not only turns a blind eye but even looks for tainted players like Jose Guillen or Mota that other teams don't want.Even they the Giants lose a Cabrera or Brian Wilson it doesn't matter because they go to Venezuela or the Dominican and pick up another guy who's not afraid to, well... you know. I hate to be say it, but we're about the only watchdog in town. Nobody else here seems to care. 



       We're old school and it's a joke to see the players 'load up' when they want to and ease off when they think they'd better. With the new designer PEDs they can virtually go on or off and the stuff's working or not working and undetectable within hours of not taking it. (We've got a lot of articles in store, including explaining exactly how the drugs work - and just how easy it is today to take the undetectable PEDs - only still undetectable because MLB has n't  brought in the latest 'detectable' tests .   It takes a Victor Conte of Balco Fame to blow the whistle and explain things these days - and nobody still seems to care - in San Francisco.Plus, there aren' t all the side effects anymore, like gaining mass like Bonds. I could go on... but , basically, the only thing to do to beat the Giants now, as long as they're using, is to use yourselves - which I don't condone.  



      When the Giants are down they'll just go to their bench and bring in someone like a Blanco who'll get a key pinch hit and later bring in a reliever like Mijares , who's  suddenly gained velocity and  will shut you down. It's hard to beat that stuff. Meanwhile, you've got a team led by the Venezuelans Scutaro and Sandoval , alaong with Mijares , Blanco and others, who almost always keep the ball in play, rarely striking out.  


       That's baseball for you in the 2000s in San Francisco , anyway. Sure wish it would change. We've put down a lot of science that explains everything that no sportwriters here would even bring up.  In fact, they just closed down our main blog site, http://WhereDidYouGoJoeDimaggio1.blogspot.com , but we're going through all the channels, to ,  hopefully get it restored. Otherwise we've got a couple other sites like like http://WhereDidYouGoJoeDimaggio1.blogspot.com and http://RoadToSuccess.us , which have a fraction of what they took down. It's pretty sad what's going on is all I can say. We know people out their - even some of the SF writers - know what's going on but just don't say anything. For the Giants' it's win at any cost, even to the point of lying about being sold out everygame, turning up the PA when they're at bat. etc... 
We don't like it - and I used to be a Giants fan... Thanks for hearing us out and good luck Rockies. Maybe you'll beat the Giants a game or two yet...
