Shocked!

Melky Cabrera gone for the season.  Drugs!  The Giants chances of winning the West now are between slim and none unless they are able to sign or find a Cody Ross who will hit 10 home runs in September.  The pitchers cannot carry the team because they have been worn out by lack of run support earlier in the season.  The good news is now they can afford to sign Melky for next year.  He lost millions today!  What are you getting?   Was his tremendous season all because of drugs and if he plays it straight what can he really do with the bat?  Looking back at the season there were a few warning signs.  I remember Melky was hitting the cover off the ball then there were two  games in San Francisco where he looked lost at the plate going hit less and the Giant broadcasters could not believe it was the same person. This blog believes the Giants will not take a chance next season.  It was fun while it lasted.  Oh yes, Washington took the series from the Giants two games to one.  The Giants now trail  by a game which means the Dodgers cannot block any waiver pick ups the Giants might desire.
