Even scarier is that those dark, icky thoughts in the back of all Giants' fans minds, that they just might not have Barry at all this season, is becoming more and more reality. Remember those halcyon days of yore when Barry was only going to be out for a month or two and all those shiny new free agent signings would mean some serious World Series booty? Sigh, those were the days. No Benitez, no cry. No Barry, cry. Sure, it's looking like the Giants are still going to be playing some exciting baseball this season, but when we say exciting, we say exciting in the same way roller coasters can be. Or skydiving. Or medieval torture.
