I've been wondering who the Giants will take off their 40 man roster to facilitate the Big Unit signing. When do they have to make this announcement by? Anyone heard anything?

Lincecum rules. Suck it Rios. That is all.

I'm not so sure about this one, Kawakami at 3 / 21 or RJ at 1 / 8? I'd rather us not get involved with another over 30 multiyear deal for a starter. Especially with the young guns coming up.

I'll give you an OT topic,
The radical reconstruction of the South after the Civil War was neither radical nor a reconstruction. Discuss.

Not much has gone on in Vegas yet, but it's still early out there and I'm sure Sabean is just waking up to a one-legged stripper named iIleen and a bottle of Old Crow shoved up his arse...Here are the Giants related rumors so far.

Giants interested in Tejeda to play third...Ugh

Other not so exciting news reports the Cubs are interested in Aurilia and everyone's pal Jerome Williams has signed with the A's...PUKA PUKA

I wouldn't mind Blalock as a one year stop gap...but think that we need to give Pablo a shot at the starting job this spring...anyone know what kind of prospects the Rangers may include to sweeten up that deal?

Buster rated as #19 on the top prospect list...I'm surprised to see so many recent draftees on the list...is that normal?

They predicted the Giants are going to sign Manny Ramirez to a 4 year 88 million dollar deal...can't these east coast writers get their heads out of their asses?

And drives in 5...awesome gamerocity and swaggertude.

There goes the ol' Rowand for Swisher rumors...unless the Yanks are desperate for Gamer McSwagitude.

From Janny Hu's article today. This is definitely good news... after watching kevin martin carve the dubs up I can't wait to get Monta back!
