Golden State Of Mind Who will W's trade...?

FIrst of all i am loving the fact that the Warriors are winning the games they should be winning (vs teams under .500).  The blowouts vs the elites are not concerning especially with this team.  But realistically the W's won't make the playoffs this year, so we need to aim at our core players & building for the future...who will not be a warrior uniform at the end of Feb?

Warriors have 6 expiring contracts and Acie Law, so we have good flexibility but a player that isnt in the future plans and on that list should be considered expendable...

Hear me out guys...Kyle Orton is 28yrs old but has been dropped to #3 on the depth chart behind Tim "Jesus 2.0" Tebow and Brady "Alex Smith is Better Than Me" Quinn. In 3 seasons he has 71td & 41int while averaging 200 yds/game with essentially no rb/wr on his Bears/Broncos team and a 29-19 record. Best part is that for a couple of draft picks (it wont take 1st rd maybe a '10 3rd and '11 2nd) we can have a legit qb while Nate Davis, Troy Smith, or whichever qb we draft blossoms and learns the system.

Additionally Josh McDaniels is looking for a job, the same McDaniels that helped create the offensive monster of the 2002-2008 Patriots. Yes he's a pompous dick and I wouldnt want him anywhere near a position that includes player management.

So McDaniels would have 2 yrs experience with Orton, Orton would have an upgrade at WR/TE/RB/OL, Niners still keep their #1 pick for Secondary or if a QB falls to their spot and Niners stop calling an inside draw on 3rd and 20. Sounds like a win/win situation to me.

I feel like that would be the best/most cost effective QB/OC combination...any other suggestion?

After the Giants won a game a few Fridays ago against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Bruce Bochy said this quote about Pablo Sandoval, which sent a shiver up my spine twenty feet away. Of course, it was also because I could feel the facepalm from the McCoven all at once (like when Alderaan was blown up, basically), yet the overwhelming feeling was that this statement perfectly encapsulated the problem the Giants’ front office and manager have had and will have on the team’s won-loss record for the season....

Mccoven representing...Posey should catch Zito and Wellmeyer...and Cain....and Sanchez....and Lincecum and when he's not catching one of those guys then he should be playing 1b and CF

i know i know its been shot down a million times...33 yrs old coming off 2 bad hammy's seasons with bad numbers over past years but the part i like was "I'm not in a position to say I'm an everyday player". Minor league contract ala Juan Uribe and if something happens then its a good contingency place. I dont think we need a reminder of the success rate of Giants OF prospects which is slightly better then the success rate of Giants 1b prospects.

Sabean and Co. misplayed the FA market for the 3rd straight year (since the post-BLB era), this time we lose a compensation pick which is slightly better than having a mediocre player committed to big bucks for many years but not by much since we traded two of our top 10 minor leaguers last year.

Sabeans try this:
Step 1 - Pick up the phone and actually talk to other people besides Lou Seal (such as agents, managers, gm's, grant) to see if teams are interested in certain positions/players
Step 2 - Whatever idea comes through your little head, reverse it
Step 3 - Subtract 1 yr - $5 million dollars from all outgoing contracts
Step 4 - Offer half of what you had originally planned on giving up in trades
Step 5 - Fire yourself

any other suggestions?

Niners Nation First 10 scripted plays for SEA

Just had an epiphany....

Imagine if the Niners run the ball 40 times and pass 20 times vs SEA the week following a 40 pass/20 run.  I just dont see how the Cardinals will be able to gameplan for the MNF game.  They would have no idea what to expect from the niners (spread or the pro/i formations)?

McCovey Chronicles Breaking News: Giants Offense was Horrible

Breaking news:

In 2009 Giants were a Major League-best 76-25 when they score three runs or more  or as I like to say we were 12-49 when our team was so inept that we couldn't score more than 2 runs per game.  Trade the entire farm system, the coca cola slide, the cable car, and  Freddy Lewis...I dont care how we do it get some freakin gamers...errr....hitters.

 

Basically there is no point to this post except to point out what everyone already knows and that we only won 12 out of 61 games which proves how well our pitching did and how poorly our offense did last year.

Ok i know i know no need to worry about Timmy. If the guy throws in the low eighties he might still be sporting a high 2.0 era. But it comes without saying that a 25 year old who has already pitched 177 IP in 2007, 227 in 2008 and already 197 IP in 2009 is mysteriously losing 3-5 mph off his pitches. I like that fact that his command is up (2.5BB/9) but is it time to start worrying as we are chasing down a Wild Card/NL West playoff spot?

God i hope everything is all good....

McCovey Chronicles Dodgers Suck & Trading for Vmart & Lee??

Ok guys MLBTR has the f'in dodgers trying to trade for both Vmart & Lee.  Billingsley/Kershaw, & Loney plus minor leaguers are being mentioned.  Obviously Sabeans doesn't have the cajones to pull off a trade like this but I might be ok with that cuz it will probably cost a massive package like MadBum, Posey + much more

Usually pro athletes are the farthest thing from role models and should all be classified as douchebags. The only exception to the rule has to be Hockey players who 1) act like human beings 2) typically respect their opponents and sport more than any other athlete 3) aren't dumb apes who walk around scratching their nuts. So it was nice to read the following story from Affeldt. Go giants

Personally Kawakami isnt my favorite giants writer but there is some good information on Mad Bum and Timmy2 compared to some of the other talents in the MLBs.

What is your prediction for these two guys coming up to the majors?

McCovey Chronicles After Sanchez...whats next

Whether it happens in May or in July it seems like good ol' dirty sanchez will be traded for a bat playing 2b,1b, LF or hopefully someone that can play all three at the same time. 

My question is who is coming up to replace Sanchez in the rotation?  Will it be a top prospect in AA, a solid young pitcher in AAA, a former prospect, or a free agent?

Personnally i wouldnt mind a flyer on a Free Agent like Byrd, who wont blow anyone away with stuff but also wont derail Pucetas/Sosa but i realize that having Johnson/Byrd in the same rotation is living dangerous so i am going with Pucetas.
