By obsessivegiantscompulsive(noreply@blogger.com) Still this is just the latest in a long line of awards and recognition. Before we signed him (but after we drafted him), he won the Golden Spike award. He then was a Hawaii Winter Baseball Post-Season All-Star last season. This season, he was a California League mid-season All-Star, and he rec...

By Grant When wondering if Buster Posey is ready to hit in the majors, ask yourself this question: "Can he somehow manage to have the third-worst on-base percentage in baseball?" If you think the answer is "yes," congratulations. You're on your way to upgrading one of your eight lineup spots.

By Grant Tattoo #1: Start Randy Winn. He hit home runs in 2005. Polaroid #1: Buster Posey. (other side) Don't believe his lies. Forget Matt Holliday. He'll go absolutely nuts for the team that acquires him, hitting like a latter-day Frank Robinson, but then he'll try to catch a ball with his crotch in the...

By Paulie(p_rice41@hotmail.com) So, what's the best way to go about this? Is it to acquire a player who can hit for power, or a player who can draw walks? Is it to play Buster Posey and give Bengie Molina the heave-ho? Is it to just let Freddy Lewis play, dammit? Is it to dump Edgar Renteria already?

Post-Game Recap: Three Games Ba...Wait, What?

By Grant If you can say that Buster Posey will cost the Giants games because he's a catching neophyte, if you can say that Posey's inability to frame pitches is unacceptable for a team still clinging to hope in a playoff race, then I can say this:

By Paulie(p_rice41@hotmail.com) 3) They'll give Bengie Molina another couple of years, thinking Buster Posey isn't ready, and it'll be a huge disaster. Okay, maybe they aren't crazy enough to do this, but you just never know. The Bengie love is really out of control in Giants-land, and a franchise that ignores OBP and focus...

He hit .300, threw dudes out from his knees, and won the Rookie of the Year award. He was the future of the Padres franchise. And the Padres finished 65-97 that year.
What Bengie Molina Represents

By Grant It isn’t just this site, though. It’s fans all over the internet, from Extra Baggs comments to Facebook status updates. The internet baseball nerd demographic is a little tired of Bengie Molina. Here’s my best guess as to why: What Bengie Molina represents What Buster Posey represents:

By Grant Fielder to watch: A new series-preview category this late in the season? What gives? It’s worth it, though, as there’s a small chance that Buster Posey might start a game this season. So let’s just review what Tim Lincecum said about Posey’s defense:
Buster Posey Found
Original at Bay City Ball
• Sat, Sep 12
By Chris My last hope for the season as the Giants slide away from Wild Card contention is to play guys like John Bowker and Buster Posey. I fully expect that Bochy will run Molina out for the rest of this LA series and maybe for the one in LA, but the further the Giants move away from playoff baseball the c...
Madison Bumgarner Called Up
Original at Bay City Ball
• Tue, Sep 8
By Chris Holy smokes! From Schulman: Madison Bumgarner, the Giants’ best pitching prospect, is being called up to the majors today. If it was a surprise catcher Buster Posey got a September promotion, this is even more of a stunner considering Bumgarner is two years out of high school. He was the 10t...
POSTGAME NOTES: Runzler is brief and brilliant in debut, picking a start for Posey, Wilson spells relief, etc.

By Andrew Baggarly Then he just followed Molina’s signs. Fastball 95, fastball 96, fastball 96. I’d imagine Molina would catch the 3:05 CDT game Saturday, but when we asked Bruce Bochy if there was an ideal scenario he could script to give Buster Posey his major league debut, he said, “A start.”

By Paulie(p_rice41@hotmail.com) I will say one thing: If the Giants continue to play Eli Whiteside over Buster Posey when Bengie Molina gets a day off, they just aren't serious about winning. Whiteside has been a decent backup and all, but let's face it. If Posey were installed in the lineup right now he'd be the Giants' secon...

By Bengie Molina It's always a shot in the arm when we get the September call-ups and the young guys join the team for the last month of the season. Much was made last week about the Giants management "trying to light my fire'' by adding Buster Posey to the roster. When reporters asked if I thought the Giants were...
Buster Posey: Come on Up!
Original at obsessivegiantscompulsive
• Thu, Jul 9
By obsessivegiantscompulsive(noreply@blogger.com) The big question for me is who did the Giants remove from the roster in order to put Posey and Runzler on the 40 man roster. There are no more players to put on the 60-day DL, so the Giants will have to start to waive players. Observations and Opinions on Buster Posey

Opinion: Buster Posey and Pablo Sandoval
Original at McCovey Chronicles

By Grant With Bengie Molina around for another year, the Giants are shoehorning Sandoval in at third just to improve the lineup. While I’m fine with the Sandoval-at-third experiment, I’m a little upset that the Giants feel the experiment requires that Sandoval throw away his catcher’s gear. If th...

By Grant Barr also went out of his way on KNBR (the .mp3 is here) to bring up Matusz. This leads me to think the Giants’ draft board looks something like this: 1. Tim Beckham or Pedro Alvarez 2. Tim Beckham or Pedro Alvarez 3. Buster Posey 4. Just one of Justin Smoak, Yonder Alonso, or Gordon Beckham
