Or sixty guys on the spot that was Greg or. Blocked -- who is hitless in his last nineteen at bats while he is three for his last. 38 Boise is an April found slumped body go from a guy that gets a hit at least one a day sometimes two or three vs a guy. Who has three for his last 38. Well you can't compare first ball -- no way you can pair of blog go to Cabrera. Also when you look at the offensive by as you go look on the defensive side. Cabrera was stellar in the outfield some of his throws were magnificent you have to move on Waffle House -- filled that role. As best as you can and hopefully the best. Its -- could that be feel -- -- of this -- -- Cabrera what you -- to build -- great throw to make all these but it catches it from the outfield. He's coming left center field in the gap. He's covering for out there who doesn't get a good jump on the ball -- yes especially we are go to that I go to move. But. These are some big shoes to feel him that this is this the blow to this -- -- or was that exactly -- the third hole was Maltese now you -- Pablo back up. You you diminish the power the -- like which saw yesterday and now your movement felt up to six hopefully he continues to keep being. Are they that they Giants did sign big -- -- Nady to a minor league contract and he's already hit a couple of home runs at Fresno he was a Washington national heard this year struggled at. Mightily. But it was because he had an injury hit a bad wrist and you gotta think the Giants knew I think about this through the grapevine. While the -- players contacted on these matters and his agent the team is not supposed to know but we heard the rumor in late July. These are Smart people I think they knew something was up probably before whenever the trade for Hunter Pence and when they signed -- Xavier Nady so could Xavier Nady. Be a guy who comes up and plays left field. And gives a little power he's not Melky -- get two or three hits again but he could it. Hit the ball out of the ballpark. Well again I would Major League experience in about that you could fire right now it would be a big acts that facet to this lineup and -- -- down enough Fresno swing the bat good he might be the answer to this to the level you. And also put to him now that she's right handed -- -- left handed and I got a couple people you can -- platoon in left field. But are we gonna keep blond though as the Giants gonna keep -- one left field he's more of a soccer field. Block -- start sitting in this will not be an issue but he isn't a profound slump but we saw him get real hot -- Pablo was hurt. Earlier in the year there's somebody dominoes -- you move belts off first base put him in left field. But it Pablo the first scooter go to third we're gonna do all this all over again I kinda got the lineup hall last night.
