Tim Lincecum is a Man, Man

↵It’s the time of year when the valuable young assets of losing teams are handled more for next year than next week. Live arms get rest, players with a nagging injury take nights off. (“Hey, that hangnail really hurt!”)

↵Giant Tim Lincecum thinks those guys are babies, and he will have none of it.↵↵⇥“I want to go out there as many times as possible,” Lincecum said. “What’s that word they use - babying? I’m not really in favor of that. If you want to bench press 200 pounds, it won’t help to keep lifting 150 over and over.”↵↵Timmy’s stance is bolstered by his Cy Young contention. Also, his awesomeness. (If you think this is the last gratuitous Lincecum fanboyism you’ll see from me, you are completely mistaken.)

↵Speaking of live young arms, Francisco Liriano held the Indians to three hits in six innings of scoreless work. Warning to the ChiSox: He’s baa-ack.↵
