Dump Edlefsen

What in the name of  Armando Blownitez are the Giants doing pitching this guy? Can we please DFA this loser? I had stopped to buy gas on my way home after the top of the 9th ended with Buster Posey in a bases loaded groundout, pumped the gas and turned the radio back on and it was already on commercials -- a slight compensation in that I didn't have to listen to that Godawful Padres radiocaster Ted Leitner. He's the absolute worst in MLB right now. Anyhow, I figured that the game the bottom of the 9th had ended both badly and quickly.

So I read John Shea's game story for the SF Chron and discover that it was the second pitch to a guy who had never before homered.

Get rid of Edlefsen. NOW. With guys injured, I have no idea why this guy is being allowed to lose games while a bonafide prospect like Heath Hembree blows away minor leaguers.

Chris Quick at Bay City Ball has a through recap of the game and some nice GIFs but doesn't have a problem with Edlefsen. Well, we're going to have to agree to disagree.

Here's what Henry Schulman of the Chron just tweeted --

I get the frustration. Edlefsen gave up 2 big runs in Lince's prior loss vs. AZ. Might be time for Plan B.
