Been searching for the Giants list but they have yet to post while many other teams have completed their list. I'm sure they will leave 3/4 slots open for trades, signings.

William, are these your choices, or what the Giants have already done? I agree with them, btw, but wasn't sure if you were stating facts or opinions...

The SF Giants: agressively promoting young talent since 2008.

Re: 40 man Roster business deadline?

I'd like to see them keep Jesse English at least another year, so I think they should put him on the 40. I'm fine with cutting Craig Whitaker loose, though. I suppose you have to keep EME around, too although his rope's getting pretty short. I wouldn't use a roster spot on Timpner though, it's not like we're short on defensive-minded CFs. Horwitz is probably gone, too.

My boy ain't fat, he's just big boned. Big bat, too.
