    We are as bummed as the rest of fellow #SFGiants fans. We only ever did this to root for our favorite team, and we still have a division2win

    @TroyRenck unlike Colorado fans, we still have a baseball team worth rooting for. Elvis can wait

    Melky's 50 game suspension will really hurt the Giants playoff chances. Still got faith in my boys though...

    I'm hearing a lot of chatter about Melky Cabrera and the Giants season being over. Come on now people, he's just one player.

    Was on a flight passed out - woke up in Chicago to find out news about Cabrera's suspension... Mortified. We still got Panda, Posey, Pence!

    Don't think this will be as bad as losing Posey last year. Someone needs to step up, but we still have a great team. Go #SFGiants! #Melky

    I hate to be a pessimist but the #SFGiants season is looking pretty grim, whats the appeals process. We Don't #GotMelky #FreeMelky

    Cabrera does not protest using Peds he knew he was doing it that's real bad he knew he would get caught Talk about letting your team DOWN

    The worst part about Melky Cabrera getting suspended for 50 days is hearing everyone's opinion about it on Facebook.

    I'm feeling bad for @TheMelkmen right now. They invested so much in Melky. It's the whole Bay Area's "Say it ain't so" moment. #SFGiants
