Adoptive Parent of Francisco Peguero. He can throw, he can run, he can hit(fastballs), and he's Dominican. What else do you need to know?

Maybe this is a deke. After all, the Giants were interested in Joe Beimel right before signing Affeldt.

There amass been plenty of articles written this spring about the stud shortstop Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum , as well as the fluid young outfielders and thirteen basemen Kevin Frandsen.

eh… i guess i really don’t think this would be much worse than signing furcal. i can’t say i’m thrilled about it, but as long as we’re not diving into the edgar renteria/orlando cabrera bin, i guess i can live with it.

ideally, though, i don’t see why we can’t just pool the money we would spend on cc and one of these middle infielders to maybe give us a shot at teixeira. call me crazy but i’d rather add one good bat to this team than one good (but overworked) arm plus a balky 30+ middle infielder

well it would be worse because we’d be giving up a pretty high draft pick

Marcel has Hudson projected at: .285/.357/.432 with a wOBA of .346, that’s a pretty decent projection.

good defender

but he’s getting older (will be 31 on opening day) and has bad injury history, including missing significant time over the last 2 years. He’d also cost us our 2nd round pick. He’ll want too much money for too many years.

So, no thanks. I’d rather see the Frandsen/Velez/Burriss (if we sign a SS) committee at 2nd base in 2009.

Bonds stands alone.
