Reasons to Celebrate

There has to be something positive remaining after, say it with me, the A's beat the Giants. Again. I have a few reasons in mind:

1. The resuscitation of my computer.
2. Who else but Tim Lincecum (happy belated birthday, rock on) and his consistent dominance.
3. Lincecum vs Verlander at 7:15.

'Til then, a scattering of links:
  • The Giants have gotten the ball rolling on signing their draft picks. To date, 17 out of 50 picks have signed. Notable signees include Edwin Quirarte, for $193K, and CJ Ziegler.
  • Semi-forgotten Kevin Frandsen says, "I want to hit." Recovery normally takes 4-6 months, but 3 months after the injury, his rehab is ahead of schedule.
  • In light of Tyler Walker's recent struggles, Bochy confirms that Keiichi Yabu is now the set-up man. Yabu has been solid given his relative anonymity and age, so he definitely earned the role.
Question: In which inning will the radar gun overheat tonight?
