Farewell J.T. Snow
It was a sad day today for San Francisco Giants fans. The Giants did not offer arbitration to Snow, which means that he will be playing baseball somewhere else next year. And they plan on replacing him with … the 36-year-old Mark Sweeney (?!).
Thanks J.T. for 9 great years.

J.T. speaks out (SF Chronicle).
“I’ve met a lot of great teammates and I’m proud I got to wear the orange and black. … This is where my heart is. I love the city of San Francisco. My family and I are members of the Bay Area community. We will be for the rest of our lives. It’s just unfortunate it didn’t work out.”
The Corporate Name Game
Just when I was getting used to the name of SBC Park (formerly Pacific Bell Park), they announced today that they will be changing the name to AT&T.
2005 Giants have heart
Regardless of how this season ends, I tip my hat to the 2005 Giants. Throw out the sub-500 record and the fact that the NL West is a joke this year. Their comeback victory over the Padres tonight showed a lot of heart. Randy Winn went 4 for 4 and hit a season-saving triple in the bottom of the 9th inning. It was Trevor Hoffman’s first blown save since April.
