5. Mid-season, they're in first fucking place

A long as Cain, MadBum, Vogelsong and Zito are steady they'll stay competitive.

I'll repeat: Tim is filling the role of the fifth starter. If he can give them five to six innings and keep the game close he's doing his job. Granted, last night was a set-back. But the whole team struggled too.

Bochy could juggle the starters after the All-Star game. Tim is scheduled to start this Sunday in Pittsburgh. Bochy could give him 6 to 9 days off with the break. Lincecum could start the 15th in temperate San Francisco or as late as the 18th in steamy Atlanta. Heck, with the extra day off on the 16th Bochy could even start him on the 22nd against the Phillies.

Rest and time to work out the kinks. Maybe what Tim needs.
