Open Massive Stupid Trade/Rumor Dump + Discussion
With the upcoming Trade Deadline looming this Friday, I figure that we'll see more and more trades, rumors, and other bits of information. With that in mind, I thought it would be helpful to compile all of the separate rumors and speculation into one large thread. This way, we won't have 100 RYAN GARKO threads or 100 OMG HEYMAN TWITTER UPDATE threads. And, it's a good place to consolidate a bunch of the trade deadline discussion.
Maybe get this thing going, and rec it so that it goes to the top? Sound like a good idea? If not, mods nuke this post. Or, maybe it an open make fun of xanthan thread (I hear he lives in a basement).
Some Giants-related rumors from today, Tuesday July 28, 2009:
Giants "seriously looking" at Freddy Sanchez @ Heyman Tweet:
#giants trade talk for freddy sanchez seems pretty serious. #pirates scouring giants' well-stocked system.
Giants NOT interested in Roy Halladay @ Mercury News - Baggs
"We don't want to deplete our assets when there's another route we need to go," Sabean said. "Simply put, (Jonathan) Sanchez and Sadowski have to step up. Each day Randy doesn't pick up a baseball, the longer it looks like he won't be back any time soon. We should have a lot more information on him in a couple of days."
Giants trade for Garko @ SFGate.com - David White
"You don't acquire a player like this to sit him," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "He's a veteran, proven hitter who's going to provide some punch. You get a bat like this, it makes us a better lineup."

I’ll be pretty surprised if we don’t end up with Sanchez.
The question is how much it’ll cost. If the Giants end up picking up the whole salary, it could be pretty damn cheap.

he has an option that vest after something like 600 plate appearances that he will likely get. when it does, he’s owed about $8M next year. then he’s a FA. whether he’s a type A or B at that time will depend on what he does next year.

Freddy has kind of sucked lately. Like a lot. Is he hurt? Do we want him if he is hurt?
Merkin Valdez? Manuel Mateo? A rose by any other name...
He got scratched yesterday from the lineup.
Per Rotoworld:
Freddy Sanchez was scratched from Monday’s starting lineup with lingering tenderness in his left knee.
Sanchez suffered the injury before the weekend. If the second baseman requires a stint on the disabled list, his $8.1 million vesting option for 2010 might not go into effect. He needs 600 plate appearances to trigger it.
So, he’s had back AND knee problems this season.
It’s all a smokescreen to keep other teams away from him! He’s going to SF!

Would the Jays really trade within the division, though? Seems like they’d just be damning themselves to another 5-10 years of third- and fourth-place finishes at best.
"He is Tim Lincecum...the Most Interesting Pitcher in the World."
The rumor is that it’s going to take a bigger trade package for them to move Halladay within the division.
I’ve always believed that to be the case. I don’t think the Jays would want the PR nightmare of Halladay coming to Toronto and pitching against them.
he could pull an agent schmidt on them, although I imagine he would wait until his pay day to do that

Sanchez...
Sounds like they are serious about getting two Sanchez’s on the team. Hadn’t heard the part about being unwilling to trade Jonathan to the Nats before.
Matt
The Pirates are looking for young players, and some names that could be in the mix include first baseman John Bowker, infielder Kevin Frandsen and Jesus Guzman. The Giants are well-stocked with prospects but wouldn’t consider their top guys for Sanchez.
Bowker will go to Pittsburgh and turn into Brian Giles, mark my words!
I am unbelievable alright with these names
now hopefully the pirates can pick up some of that contract from next years option.

The Giants, who just acquired Ryan Garko on Monday from the Indians, tried for Nick Johnson but were told it would take Jonathan Sanchez in a package, and so they decided to go with Garko.

After the Garko trade
is anyone else compulsively checking to see what other deal(s) the Giants have made?… Well, more than normal?
I have been. It reminds me of when I was a kid. I always got to open one present on Christmas Eve and the Garko trade is like opening a completely average gift and wondering if that was as good as it gets this year or if there was something better under the tree.

The Shea Hillenbrand trade was like coming into the living room on Christmas morning and seeing a note taped to the tree that reads “SHOP FOR YOURSELVES”
"He is Tim Lincecum...the Most Interesting Pitcher in the World."
Sabean doesn’t sound like he’s done just yet, either. He knows one Ryan Garko does not a murderer’s row make. Asked if this meant the Giants were done dealing, Sabean said, “I don’t expect it will be.”
Since Sabean usually doesn’t say shit, that quote has made me check the sites for news continually.
Apparently, three Ryan Garkos WOULD make a murderers’ row.

Is it weird to think Sanchez WONT come to SF since
Sabean’s trades usually are way under the radar? IE not a lot of rumors about Garko before it happened
probably Scutaro then
haven’t seen him mentioned in connection with the Giants
The Sanchez thing is more closely scrutinized than Garko though.
No one was even sure if the Indians wanted to get rid of Garko, but it’s been obvious for a while that the Pirates don’t want to give Sanchez what he wants.
Oh, I just did 2 paragraphs without snark.
I choose to watch the Giants try to score runs. Not because it is easy, but because it is hard.

Well, I can just imagine Sabean sitting at his desk being all like
“SEE SEE SEE What I can do?? You guys all don’t think I know what I’m doing, and that I’m not doing anything and then BOOM here comes _”
I think the Pirates are playing this smart
They really don’t have to move Sanchez. If they take the Garko aquisition as Sabean trying to reach the playoffs this season, there natural question would be “How much is that worth to you?”

Seeing as they traded McClouth and LaRoche for a couple of Blockbuster gift cards, I expect it’s less Pittsburgh playing it smart and more Pittsburgh being afraid of Keith Law writing an article about how dumb they are.

From Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Chu
Frank Chu holds Bill Clinton responsible for directing the CIA to withhold payment to him for being the star of something called “The Richest Family” during the presidency of George H.W. Bush. His protests frequently called for the impeachment of Clinton even after Clinton was no longer in office. Bill Clinton and various other US presidents are frequently accused by Chu of cooperating with the 12 Galaxies to commit crimes and treasons. Chu is strongly interested in television reporters and newscasters, who will bring him the publicity he requires to inform the world of the injustices committed against him. He hopes that this wave of publicity will cause a public outcry, which will result in the impeachment of various US presidents and the awarding of “$20 billions” in compensation for the damages he and his family have suffered. Another source says:" Frank believes that he and his family have been filmed for years now without their knowledge and the show has aired as “The Richest Family”. He found out that he was a star (and appeared on the cover of Newsweek, Time, etc.) because California Correctional Officers who were really movie stars who were really KGB agents told him—-through ESP. In fact, nearly all the movie stars have ESP. Frank is not from another galaxy and never contends [sic] to be. He hasn’t even visited them. He is aware of them (possibly) through ESP being sent to him by Soviet ex-presidents (alive and dead/resurrected) and KGB agents. Clinton, Hillary, and even Chelsea are “guiltied” of being in collusion with the first 12 galaxies away from our galaxy, while Frank is being aided by the Zegnotronic (120 galaxies away)9 "

Max Flack and Cliff Heathcote are the only players to play for both teams in a doubleheader, having been traded by the Cubs and Cardinals, respectively, between games on May 30, 1922.
The Mets in 1979, traded for Jose Cardenal in between games of a doubleheader. Cardenal crossed the hall and dressed — but did not play — for the Mets in the second game. “A couple of Mets players, John Stearns and a few guys, were saying, ‘What are you doing here? Wrong clubhouse!’” Mets manager Joe Torre was going to play Cardenal, who asked out of the lineup. “I could not do it. I was in shock.”
There was also a player back in the 80s or 70s who was traded after a day game, travelled to his new team, and played a night game with them. I want to say it was Joel Youngblood but I heard the story second-hand many years ago so I really don’t know.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that pie > cake, that Bochy is endowed by his creator with certain undeniable traits, that among these are veteran man-love, a gigantic skull, and the pursuit of the double switch.
Adopted Giant: Fred Lewis, who can still draw a walk.
it was Joel Youngblood

Baggs update
Another busy day. Nate Schierholtz is out at least 6-8 days because of a strained left hip and some internal bleeding, so he goes to the DL to make room for Ryan Garko.
Discouraging news on the Big Unit. The MRI showed some tearing, according to Bruce Bochy. He will not pick up a baseball for at least three weeks, but Bochy said he is motivated to return and contribute down the stretch. He us 45, though.
Freddy Sanchez and Jack Wilson both not in the Pirates lineup. Stay tuned.

"Should the Astros score more than 30 cumulative runs in the four-game series, your luck runs out, however. The team has set the maximum ticket discount at $30. The regular price of field box tickets is $39.

Rafael Rodriguez: #8 on our list and batting .326 in Scottsdale...which I believe has be renamed Rafaelsdale.
A mathematical model is formulated for the partial evacuation of viscous fluid from a rectangular cavity by the action of a passing meniscus. This time-dependent free surface problem is of direct relevance to the direct gravure coating process. Evacuation from a rectangular cavity is considered by taking account of the motion of the dynamic contact line down a vertical side wall. A two-dimensional solution is obtained using a Lagrangian finite element method, and results reveal the effects due to cavity aspect ratio and fluid properties. It is concluded that the fraction of fluid evacuated increases as (i) the cavity aspect ratio (cavity width) increases and (ii) the Capillary number decreases––though for cavities with a larger aspect ratio evacuation is independent of Capillary number.
As a chemical engineer, I can help him with this type of problem.

This is the funniest thread I have read in recent memory. Too bad it is becoming unwieldy on my old PC.
It’s the “Ryan Rohlinger” thread of 2009.
"He is Tim Lincecum...the Most Interesting Pitcher in the World."
Our old epic threads were so tame compared to the ones we have now.
The “When are we gonna get real and admit Matt Cain isn’t it” thread was actually less than 300 comments. That’s nothing nowadays.

To be fair, when making a catch like the one Velez made in the outfield late in the game yesterday, if the ball is low and not coming directly at you have a better chance or catching it by laying out than you do bending over. So even if the dive looked gratuitous, he was simply increasing his probability of catching the ball.
Yeah right velez definitely has a scientific approach to baseball fundamentals

with the news of Randy Johnson’s injury being this bad, I think that makes it highly unlikely that we can be a real playoff contender. I would hope the Giants don’t give up anybody of value.

8:51 p.m.: Sanchez’s knee was examined by the Giants’ doctors last night, but that is common when a visiting player has an injury. It was not a physical.

Basically, we may or may not get Sanchez, due to his injury. More interestingly, Baggs says that he believes that Sabean’s white whale is Dan Uggla, but the 4-games-over .500 Marlins don’t want to give him up.
