Dexter Morgan Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 The saves statistic is my opinion is pretty useless, but when you have accumulated 600 of them, that says something about your endurance at your craft and consistency. Hats off to the greatest relief pitcher of all-time, Mariano Rivera. Next stop, 602 (all-time save Record), and then Cooperstown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 It looks like Carlos Beltran brought the Mets injury mojo to the Giants when he was traded, not only did the Giants have several injuries they had weird WTF injuries. This slipped through the cracks a few days ago, but apparently Jeremy Affeldt injured his hand separating frozen hamburgers. This has to go into the Hall of Fame of strange injuries.http://www.bellinghamherald.com/2011/09/09/2177701/giants-affeldt-injured-while-separating.htmlHopefully Affeldt has Aflac. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bravo96 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Braves finally snap that stupid losing streak! Hats off to McCann for a clutch homer. Hopefully, he's getting his stuff back. Also, Heyward has six, count 'em, SIX walks in a 5 for 18 (.278) week. Is it the return?! Click the Banner - Join the Movement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Six Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 It looks like Carlos Beltran brought the Mets injury mojo to the Giants when he was traded,It's been there since spring training. Cody Ross and Brian Wilson started the season on the DL. Andres Torres was injured in the home opener. Barry Zito went on the DL for the first time ever. And you may have heard about Posey and Freddy Sanchez. All before Beltran arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 well the Posey injury was just unfortunate and the Barry Zito injury actually helped the Giants, but after Beltran arrived it seemed everyday someone else went down. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vmd9 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Coincidence, as practically the whole team has been hurt at some point or another this season.I feel your pain man. The Indians went through the same thing as the Giants. I know we aren't as talented but had one of the best records in the AL until everyone started to drop like flies. Hafner, Choo, Sizemore, Brantley, Kipnis, Laporta, Hannahan, and Tomlin all spent significant time on the DL. No team would be able to win when your top 5-6 hitters go down, it's just impossible. I counted one game we had only 3 guys from the opening day roster...ouch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
