Enjoy pitching in that yard!

Seems like he could've gotten more on short term deals, but maybe he wanted the 3rd year

Bochy just announced Brandon Belt's going to the DL with a fractured wrist - Connor Gillaspie called up - joins team tomorrow.

Hope the Price is Right Sabes

Meh

.094/.171/.094: I didn't realize he was sucking that bad this year

Meh! Organizational depth...I guess?

But Sabean still felt the need to provide more than enough quotes bashing him for being "ill-prepared"

(Funny side note: My browser filled in the title of this post as soon as I typed 'R' from last time he got fired. How sad!)

Looks like they took a youngster in exchange for letting the Rangers keep Ben Snyder

Jesus Guzman tells Lider en Deportes' Carlos Rodriguez that he has received no guarantee of making the Giants' opening day roster, but he has received another sort of guarantee from manager Bruce Bochy: Whatever chance he has will be in the outfield, as opposed to the infield, where Guzman has almost exclusively played in the past. After three brief callups in 2009, the Giants designated the 26-year-old Venezuelan for assignment to make room for Bengie Molina this offseason, then invited him back to spring training. Last season at Triple A Fresno, Guzman put up a .321/.379/.507 line in 500 PA while playing mostly first base.

And apparently Big Head actually does know what UZR is. Who knew???

Oh, and this article is really about BLB

Interesting...

Starring:
#7 Buster
#14 MadBum
#62 Neal is Real!

Was hoping he would sit out there on the market long enough for the Giants to get a cheap one-year deal. Doh!

Oh nevermind, he is a pitcher

Another name to cross off the list of candidates

(Looks like 2 years/$5-6 million)

Looks like they plan on him being in AAA.

"We came to the overall conclusion it would be a tall order to ask him to do that. He just hasn't played a lot." --Sabean

Maybe he should have forced Big Head to play him more at the end of the year!

Not his credit card, and not really that surprising

At least the Giants recognize that he needs to slim down to stick around for another 15 years

Saw this on the transactions page of sfgiants.com while looking for Bumgarner info. Who is Joel Collins, and why did the Giants acquire him from the Pirates? Was it some sort of PTBNL or did they give up someone for him?

He is a poor hitting catcher in A ball apparently. I don't get the need for him, but whatever

Best of luck in whatever he chooses to do after this baseball thing

Interesting. Can't say I wouldn't like a bat like his in the lineup, but as he proved today, he is a jackass sometimes

Against a right hander? WTF is wrong with Bochy?

Winn and Garko are both 1/5 career versus Homer Bailey. Nate is 1/2

Making room for a certain someone in the Triple-A rotation???

Wonder if he'll stick around long enough to beat the Giants in August?
