Schedule

by John Sickels on Sep 1, 2025 1:07 PM EDT

I am finishing up a research project today, so blogging will resume tomorrow. Schedule:

Tuesday: Where Did This Guy Come From? Luke Hughes
Wednesday: Prospect Retro: Howie Kendrick
Thursday: Looking at Chris Carter
Friday: Prospect Retro: Kevin Kouzmanoff
Saturday: Where Did This Guy Come From? Carlos Rosa
Sunday: Looking at Pablo Sandoval

I will be probably attending the PCL playoffs in Oklahoma on Friday/Saturday, so this schedule might slip at the back end depending on how travel plans go.

..and another thanks..

..for the Sandoval item. What I want to know is: what happened in June 2007? Before that he was an interesting, C+ guy. Since then he looks like a potential major-leaguer, if one who will swing at absolutely anything.

his MiL walk rate

is not terrible this year. Not like his ML walk rate (31 BB in 448 AB): vs. 1 BB in 56 ML AB’s.

The Giants need to sign Harry Doyle.

Sweet

I really wanted to see a KK prospect retro.

Sweet!

As a Giants fan, quite interested to hear what you have to say about Tubby Sandoval. Saw him on TV for the first time the other day and he was legging out a 3b. Surprisingly mobile, and can play 3 positions proficiently from what I hear/read.

I can remember being so amused because his 1st baseball card in 2006 listed him at 5’11", 180 lbs and he looked like he does today. Yahoo has him at 5’11", 246.

The Giants need to sign Harry Doyle.

This would not work in a fanpost or fanshot because it looks funny

Sorry to do it in the schedule thread, but this can cause discussion

It's supposed to be a crystal ball for Tim Alderson

It’s a little bit sketchy (no offense sign posey) because of the years where his ERA is so damn high and the years where it’s the polar opposite. It is interesting though.
