Read a good article about new Giants pitcher Matt Morris yesterday. The story, written by AP sportswriter Janie McCauley, talks about how catcher Mike Matheny (another former Cardinal) is helping get Morris acclimated to the West Coast.
Quote:
Matheny dresses next to Morris and it's like old times for these two, who talk before games and have few issues when it comes to knowing how the other works. Morris is thinking of living outside San Francisco in nearby Half Moon Bay -- on Matheny's glowing recommendation of the quiet oceanside town.
"For the first time changing teams, it made it easier knowing the catcher," Morris said. "Also knowing the league. I took all those things into account. It's not what I expected. I thought it would be more difficult getting used to everything."

San Fran signed him to a 3-year, $27 million deal during the offseason. I'm sure they're glad to see that he feels at home on the club. How much do you think he can help upgrade this Giants pitching staff? How effective will he be?
