Around SBN: Please, Someone Make Bob Sapp Stop Already

Foxsports.com's Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi are reporting the Giants are focusing on three players in an effort to find a big bat in the middle of their lineup:

Dan Uggla, Florida's power-hitting second baseman who is under contract for 2010; Free-agent third baseman Adrian Beltre, formerly of the Seattle Mariners; and free-agent first baseman Nick Johnson, most recently of the Florida Marlins.

Would we be able to get both Uggla and Beltre?

Where would they play?

Pablo moves to 1b and then you’ve got three players for two spots at 2b and 3b (when you factor in Sanchez)

We run 5 infielders, 2 outfielders (VROOOOOOOOOM!). This will overcompensate for our infield lack of range. Problem solved. All our pitchers just need to become ground ball pitchers.

If one were going to trade for Dan Uggla, why would he first sign Freddy Sanchez?

On the other hand, if the Giants were to sign both Adrian Beltre and Nick Johnson, Nick’s high OBP could take some of the sting out of Adrian’s high number of outs.

And Nick, Adrian and Freddy could battle Edgar Renteria for most games missed due to injury.

Somewhere in all this the Giants get better — right?

because Freddy Sanchez is our new 3b

1. Sign a bunch of injury prone free agents
