Remember when Buster and Pablo hit back-to-back home runs? That was cool.

He can play LF?
Cool, now we can stop playing that Belt guy.
pill could play second… one year, keppinger played 67 games at third… panda can play first… that leaves poor aubrey whiff as the next to go…

Moving Pablo to first would be one of the worst ideas ever.
"Lee pitches...Renteria hits a high drive, deep left-center field, David Murphy going back, he's on the warning track—it is...go-one!"
He’s the best third baseman we’ve had since Pedro Feliz.

Defensively, I mean.

Comment From Mark
Dave, it seems that strikethrowers without awesome K stuff (Nolasco, Bumgarner) tend to be more prone to nuclear meltdowns out on the mound. Do you think this is actually true, and if so, would such a pitcher’s WAR be giving him too little credit? It seems that you would rather have a pitcher who gave up a bulk of his earned runs in a few starts and pitched really well the rest of the time.Dave Cameron: I don’t think that’s actually true, no.

ERA is good, but that is average
He had 2 big blowups this year, and been awesome. I would take him over most guys in his ERA range.

Comment From Person
if you could make a team of players who people think you have something against based on your opinions of them, what would this team look like? Morrow and Bumgarner would be in the rotation I’m sure, Montero would be somewhere in the lineup if we’re putting prospects on this club. who else is on this team?
Dave Cameron: Probably 90% of the Phillies roster, then those three.

It’s amazing, but single-season defensive samples don’t mean much.

Like I said above, he’s the best we’ve had since Pedro Feliz.

My frame of reference is limited, since I don’t really remember any of the third basemen the Giants ran out there before David Bell. I do remember when Bill Mueller played like 8 games for the Giants in 2002, though.

It was an error because the ball went into the dugout, if Baker had caught it, he would have come off the bag and Burrell woulda been safe
Point is, the official scorer would have said it was hit far enough away from Castro that it woulda been a hit.

"They'll put a man on the moon before I hit a home run." ~ Gaylord Perry
If we are "anti-Reyes" at shortstop, then we are going to have to spend the money in CF
because I believe Nate might turn the corner and be an every day rightfielder, Belt looks like he will be in left (if we haven’t screwed him up too much), we’ve said Crawford will be our SS, which leaves us with the biggest need in CF assuming everyone else is healthy. 2nd need could be a “Grade A” leftfielder with Belt playing every day at 1B.

Sorry, spend it on who, exactly?
And why would we do that with a CF of the future waiting in the wings?
The reason Reyes is the best big contract the Giants could give out is because he plays a position where premium talent isn’t often available, and it also happens to be a position where the Giants internal options are replacement-level at best.

Uh no

I like Reyes, but his health is an issue.
The other thing to consider is that the Mets have already said the Reyes re-signing is their top priority in the off season as they rebuild. Citifield is ideal for a hitter like Reyes and much like AT&T is not favorable for power hitters. The Mets will drive up the price on Reyes, it will get ridiculous and I would hate to see the Giants get sucked into this bidding war.

or see comment above
Stamos at SS and spend the money on a Grade A centerfielder or leftfielder depending on what you want to do with the Belt/Huff situation.

Yeah, the obvious solution is to play the replacement level guy at SS
And instead spend money at positions where we already have options within the organization.
That’s savvy.

just hope that reyes doesnt fall apart after he signs the contract
I'm on the twitters @FFFFFFFFreak55
Time to take off the blinders
options within our organization? speaking of savvy……if we have to depend solely on the talent within our system, we are in trouble. Brown aside, who we may have to wait another year for, we are going to need better answers before 2013.

Our internal options in the outfield are vastly superior to our internal options at SS
Which means it makes more sense to go get an SS from outside the organization.

It’s ridiculous how Romo’s fastball is barely 90 mph and yet he’s mowing down batters
If you're watching a blowout, you can pass the time by counting the double teapots.

Movement and about 13 different release points. Dude’s brutal to pick up.

Sergio Romo rejects your reality and replaces it with his own
by Lies and Perfidy on Aug 31, 2011 3:15 PM PDT up reply actions
I have noticed that he does not believe in the laws of physics
and in return, they refuse to believe his pitches exist
I overheard him in the dugout at the Arizona Fall League in 2007 saying he wasn’t sure where the ball was coming from each time he threw it. That was after he had his big year in SJ (106 K in 66 1/3 innings). I’d imagine he has better control on his release points, because he can utilize his pitches to mow bitches down.

Why is everyone talking about free agent signings all of a sudden?
Just because Rowand was cut doesn’t mean that the club magically has $12 million dollars to spend this off-season…

There were ways to create rosters spots whether or not Rowand was on the team, though.

Unless someone puts him under the Imperius curse and has him forfeit his remaining salary.
Sergio Romo: The Giants welcome wagon.
Representing the World Champion SF Giants in SoCal since 2009.
Pretty much the only Persian in California obsessed with baseball...
But Ross, DeRosa, departing frees up some funds.

Not really, considering the raises that Cain and Wilson will be receiving and Tim’s arbitration numbers.
"If you wanna rock 'n' roll, I got the guitar."
Well they won't be paying Tejada / DeRosa / Ross / Beltran next year
That’s a good bit of cash. Probably enough to compensate for arb raises.

They raised payroll 20 mil last year
Stadium has been around 12 years now? They bought it on 20 year bond and kept salaries relatively low in the Bondsmil a year years. I think they will soon have Yankee\Bos\Chi\Phi type money, when those bonds are paid off.

Which I guess means he is also John Cena’s father, which sounds like the best Thanksgiving dinner ever.
