...I wanted to myself, but circumstances will not allow me to attend. I still have my tickets. So anybody interested in a last-minute change of plans please let me know and I can give you my ticket strips for face value. Much rather these go to GIANTS fans than some rich snob on Stubhoe anyway...

The tix are for all events. Futures. Derby. Celebrity. FanFest. Midsummer Classic. 6 available.

Congrats to Timmy, Cainer, The Beard and Vogelsong!

Go GIANTS!

At this point I think it's pretty safe to say Bengie's not going to be a Giant next year. Let's leave it at that. The "will he or won't he" can end now. It's not happening and for a good reason -- he's past his prime and maybe has another useful year in him, but not two.

What's the best cable company to go with in the Bay Area for the Giants? It's hard to tell what network the Giants are going to be on next season. It sounds like MLB's network is coming out in 2009, which DISH decided not to pick up. But will I really have to get this package in order to watch most SF games or will they be broadcast on basic cable like they have in the past?

I can’t believe this guy is going to be into us for $6.5 million this year! Someone please tell me this guy has some sort of upside. Most people are concerned about Zito. He will improve. Roberts … not so much. Omar Vizquel hit better than this guy last season and cost less! How in the world can we cut this guy loose? The Giants have trim some of the fat this off season. Another way of going about that would be to trade away Winn. He’s been valuable so far, but we have other big bats to fill that role, i.e. Schierholtz. Once the cuts have been made the Giants can finally shop for a legitimate back up outfielder.
