Interesting table showing Defensive ( as a group) Efficiency behind Starters in 2008.

If nothing else it give us some numbers ( something not always easy to find) to quantify how poor our defense was.

A post of what clubs got the best bang for their buck ( efficiency).

A post of what clubs got the best bang for their buck ( efficiency).

And was that bang worth it ( effectiveness). I don’t know if every one interested has already seen this link. I has a nice little table in it.

Who is remotely interesting in the group of free agent Infielders?

What I am hoping for his a bit of thrashing out which if any of these guys would by possibly useful for the Giants in 2009 & 2010 as the McCoven see it. . Yes I am hiding down here fan shots so we only get hijacks ( can always use a good laugh) or thoughtful posts. . Tex - Very Good but will cost way too much. So lets ignore him. . That leaves us … .. Mark Ellis - We have possible answers in house for the 2010, 2011& one season that would not see the light of day with him being signed. ... Furcal - See Crede and back injury’s. ... Izturis? - good glove can play more then one spot. Nothing special with the bat but not a complete black hole & can steal. ... Jaun Uribe? - Hey the White Sox were using him at third & he should be cheaper then Crede. ... Casey Blake? - can play 1st & Rf. Is rumored to want to be in the mid U.S. ... GarciaParra? - Has played some 3rd in the past. 1 bad year in the last 4 vs. LHP but could he be useful as other half a first base platoon absorb time at third? ... Adam Everett? - this era’s all glove no hit SS. Could he soak up time at 3rd? ... Crede - hey Juan Urbie replaced this guy. He is strictly flier material at this point. ... Aaron Boone? - he has played third for full seasons before. ... Russell Branyan - Has power but LHP eats him alive. ... . Anyone care to add, or strike, names to this list? How about refine it down to players you think might fit the Gaints needs?
