Aubrey Huff News

A 4-3 road trip and a split against a team they have a tough time beating. The Giants did well for themselves, but very little to distinguish themselves as something better than a .500 team.

Two nights ago, Brandon Belt stepped into the plate against Heath Bell and whacked a first-pitch single to center off Heath Bell to drive in a ninth-inning run.

Does this mean the end of the irritating and nonsensical "Golden State"? Don't get excited, pal.

The Marlins held on for the 7-6 win Friday night, so Ozzie Guillen made the right move in the short term by lifting Heath Bell with one out in the ninth inning and the tying run on second base for the Giants.

Chris Coghlan ended an 11-month homerless drought and the Marlins set a new team record for wins in the month of May, snapping a two-game skid with a 7-6 win against the Giants on Friday at Marlins Park.

The Marlins erased the Giants' 3-1 lead as Lincecum retired just one of the first four batters he faced in the sixth inning Friday.

Sometimes I hate wading into the whole first-base thing. It's like running your lawnmower over a nest of wasps.

Milwaukee -- - It's all set for this weekend, Buster Posey versus Giancarlo Stanton for the heavyweight scoreboard-crushing championship of the world.

UPDATE: As manager Bruce Bochy promised, he's giving Aubrey Huff a start, his first since that fateful April 21 game in New York in which he played an inning of second base, just before he left the team.

I was upset by his comments when Barry Zito pitched a gem in Colorado becuase I am a fan who places Giants wins before lots of things that are more important.

The heroes of tonight's game are Madison Bumgarner , Buster Posey , Hector Sanchez , Joaquin Arias , and the bullpen.

Manager Bruce Bochy said he'll find a start or two for Aubrey Huff on the Giants ' seven-game road trip through Milwaukee and Miami, and nothing happened to change his mind in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the A's . Huff will most likely start at first base for Brandon Belt , who struck out three times Sunday.

The Giants have played 11 games since Aubrey Huff was activated from the disabled list on May 7, and he hasn't started any of them.

I know it's always a little unfair to judge a trade in the hindsight of the following season, but it's naive to think that the trade isn't still affecting the Giants .

Matt Cain has had more than his share of stellar performances that ended up without a win because of a lack of support.

It isn't often that Matt Cain gets a win he didn't necessarily earn. The complete list of Matt Cain wins with four earned runs or more: He was 4-41 with eight no-decisions in starts with four-plus earned runs before today.

Brandon Crawford hit a two-run single for his first RBIs since April and the San Francisco Giants capitalized on shoddy fielding by St.

Giants' Gregor Blanco scores on a two-run double by Melky Cabrera in the seventh inning against the Rockies at AT&T Park on Tuesday.

Milwaukee Brewers fans had to witness Prince Fielder , one of the best players in franchise history, depart via free agency because the team did not have the salary cap room to keep him.

The Red Sox, among other teams, are on the disappointment end of the spectrum. Their recent history and high payroll should suggest a team that is in contention for the playoffs, but in fact they are in last place in the AL East.
