Vogelsong's actually probably been the Giant's most consistent starter since before the All-Star break (unless you count Coors Field but you really shouldn't).

So how runs you going to give up today Hudson?

We might as well keep Hudson in for the whole game. If he really is injured they'll (probably) leave him out of the postseason rotation so let him rack up 900 pitches!

Are there any sites streaming the Yankee game? Baseball streams don't seem to be as prevalent as football and I'd like to see Jeter's last game :ohdear:

It's MLB.com's free game of the day (because of course it is).

John Miller has been saying on the radio that the Giants haven't given word yet on why Posey was taken out. Didn't he take a 98 MPH foul tip straight into the mask? I wouldn't be surprised if that had something to do with it.

Might just be a better safe than sorry situation, given the point in the season.

E: what Funk said.

Giants win a slugfest at AT&T Park against the Padres (won by Lincecum).

Seems accurate.

Bruce Bochy has embraced the "gently caress it" nature of this game with the most "gently caress it" lineup he can dream up.

It's not like it matters at this point, after all. Might as well rest your dudes for the WC (except for Belt who needs the playtime, and Crawford because they probably don't have enough spare infielders).
