Being a Giants fan I realize this post won't apply to most of you because I think I've only found 2 of you blogging.  What you will understand is the type of player I am describing.  You have to understand that I've been featured on sfgiants.com as of about 3 years ago asking why in the world Pedro Feliz still has a job.  I don't think this good for nothing would even be a good third baseman in the minor leagues.  I mean seriously, I'd rather go back to David Bell, or dare I say Edgardo Alfonzo.  Since I moved away from California, and I can't get MLB extra innings because of the communists, I hadn't been seeing as much baseball as I wanted.  Until of course I paid the extra $3 to get fox and wgn on my dish network account, and this is where I got flustered.  I was watching the ChiSox on Thursday and watched AJ Peirzdiadensky (I spelled that wrong on purpose because I don't want to look it up and I don't want it to look like I actually tried to spell it correctly) hit a seven hopper to the second baseman to get the runner to third with one out.  A sac fly promptly scored him.  Later in the game someone bunted a guy up and then he scored on a ground ball.  The Sox won that game 3-1 I believe. 

Fast forward to Saturday's game of the week I picked up from Fox's feed out of the Bay Area.  Pedro Feliz at his best, runner at second no outs.  He hooks around a ball three times, the third one rolls to the third baseman with a runner at second and no outs; now its the runner at second with one out.  Frandsen then comes to the plate and grounds out to ss.  Which of course would have scored the runner if he'd been at third (but of course he wasn't because Feliz is a selfish sucker).  Later in the game Feliz with runners at first and second can you believe bounces into a double play for like the 200th time of his career.  I wanted to throw my box of Nerds through the television at that point.  Feliz needs to go still, but of course that doesn't happen because the Giants brass thinks Feliz is worth a dime. Let me tell you he isn't worth two ####.  Now if you're Manny Ramirez and you don't want to get a guy up, then fine you hit 50 bombs a year and drive in 140.  But Feliz muscles up on every swing and hits 22 bombs and only scores about 80, and plays every day.  I'd rather he didn't play everyday with those numbers.  Mutha' Freakin' David Bell could approach those numbers playing everyday, and he plays balls to the wall. 

Part of this problem goes back to Felipe Alou rounding up every Latin player he possibly could and sticking them on the field as often as possible.  Go back and look at the Giants roster the year they went to the World Series and then look what happened to it when Alou came to town.  I'm glad we have Vizquel still, but hopefully Bochy can grow a pair and find the first taker and get rid of a worthless third sacker.  Don't worry Philly fans, it ain't so bad.
