Happy Thanksgiving for 2010 Giants World Championship!

Lots to be thankful this year for Giants fans everyone with the Giants first World Championship in the City by the Bay!

Decade of 2010's Will be Known as Giants Decade

First of the 2010's to be sure, our core of young players look pretty good - Lincecum, Cain, Sanchez, Bumgarner, Wilson, Romo, Posey, Sandoval, and hopefully soon Belt, Wheeler, Brown, maybe Runzler, Jones, Rosin, Neal, Surkamp, Stoffel, Culberson, Gillaspie, Crawford, Kieschnick, Noonan, Peguero, Joseph, Dominguez, Casilla, RafRod as well - and if Neukom can come through and bring in the dough necessary to keep the core around for a while (Hello A's:  we want a Coliseum full of dough backed up into AT&T for moving to San Jose).

Because with pitching like our's, if one fails you got the others to back him up.  That's something other teams can't do.  If their ace loses to our ace (and look at Lincecum's record with the Giants, he has beaten a lot more than he has lost to), then they are screwed if their #2 is not that good.  Even if they have a good #2, then they are up against Cain, who, while not as good as Lincecum in PQS DOM, took a step up to elite status in the past two seasons.  Then most teams falter at #3 and we have Sanchez, who while not consistently on a game by game basis, overall delivers more often than not in the DOM department.  And then even if they beat Sanchez, nobody's #4 is as good as Bumgarner.

Then during the regular season we'll have Zito contributing and he'll be great in the middle of the rotation, because as much as he's maligned by the Giants fanbase, he's a good pitcher, just not as good as his contract, but he helped us transition from the Bonds era to the F' Yeah era.  I'm very thankful for that.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
