GIANTS ACE ASKED TO HELP TEAM AVOID S.T.D.

ZITO WHEN ASKED HOW MANY LOSSES HE EXPECTS TO HAVE BY THE END OF MAY.


The Giants took a major step today to avoid attaining the S.T.D., the Statistical Troika of Doom, with the announcement that ace pitcher Barry Zito may be headed for the bullpen.

Only another five or six years left on what continues to evolve into the biggest disaster of a contract in baseball history.

How on earth do guys like Giants GM Brian Sabean and Knicks GM-Coach-HR/PR Disaster Isiah Thomas continue to be so bad at their jobs and stay employed?

For most normal folks, you would either have to be releated to the boss, or sleeping with the boss, or both. And the Knicks advise Isiah Thomas to not have any contact with the players for the duration of his continued "employment" with the team. Shouldn't he have been similarly advised not to have any contact with the female employees of the team?
---------------------------
AT THEIR CURRENT PACE: (AFTER 26 GAMES)

GIANTS ARE ON PACE TO AVOID ALL ELEMENTS OF THE STATISTICAL TROIKA OF DOOM

GIANTS WILL SCORE LESS THAN 500 RUNS
Giants currently have scored 84 runs after 26 games, on pace for ~ 525 runs


GIANTS WILL HIT LESS HR'S THAN WINS
Giants currently have hit 14 HR's after 26 games, on pace for ~ 88 HR's

GIANTS WILL LOSE OVER 100 GAMES
Giants current record is 11-15, on pace for ~ a 69-93 record

So currently the team is on pace to do better in all the relevant STD metrics, but this Zito move is sure to clinch the deal. His 0-6 start was the only thing keeping the Giants from attaining the lack of respectability the franchise as constituted deserves.

This fish is rotten from the head down, from McGowan to Sabean to Bochy. Simply horrible.
