Tigers may release Magglio?

What do all of you think? Even with his slow start, I think he'll be an offensive upgrade. I know we have a logjam in the outfield, but I'd rather have him than Rowand...

Lincecum and Wilson make the All-Star team

Giants may hire Peterson as a special instructor

Rotoworld's take: The San Francisco Chronicle reports that the Giants may bring in recently fired Mets pitching coach Rick Peterson to work with Barry Zito.

Not only was Peterson the pitching coach in Oakland when Zito was at his best, he worked with Zito as far back as high school. According to the newspaper, Peterson could be hired as a special instructor, working under pitching coach Dave Righetti.

This would be pretty awesome in my book...

Nice ESPN article on the Giants

Perhaps the Ewing Theory (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Simmons#Ewing_Theory) will apply to the Giants this year.

RIP Rod Beck

According to ESPNews, Rod Beck has died at the age of 38.

The mullet will always live on.

RIP Rod Beck.

Who would you want as the next Giants GM?

I've been thinking about this a lot recently and I've decided that I'd like to see Paul DePodesta as our next GM. He knows how to build a farm system, isn't afraid to do new things, and I'm a big fan of sabermetrics anyway.

Here are some of his moves: http://danjulien.atspace.com/depo.htm
