Didn't see anything posted on this.  I found this interesting about the GM meeting coming up.

The Giants have even let it be known that Tim Lincecum, their No. 1 pick in 2006, can be had for a quality bat.

Any relevance to this?  I think Lincecum will be a stud.

"Can be had for a quality bat."

Berkman and Lee have no-trade.  Don't see the Grocer moving PENCE!!!

So... no.
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

I have it on good authority that Luke Scott owns many quality bats.

I figure that too. 

I think I'd seriously consider moving PENCE!!! to get a young pitcher like Lincecum, but I don't think there's any way McLane would allow that.  Considering the way Hunter is cheered, he may as well have a no-trade clause.  And I'm not a GM, that's another important point.

Luke Scott for Tim Lincecum, even as a starting point, would be an Executive of the Year type of deal.

Throw in Orlando Palmerio too.

Although, I don't know how Tal and Wade are planning to get Santana and Willis now.

Santana will don the blood'n'mud in exchange for Chris Burke, Matt Albers, Eric Ireland, and Eric Idle.

If you ever type "capitalization," we'll know that Ashcroft finally caught up to you and  cut your throat, and that the terrorists have won and are in control of your keyboard.

Yes, or if Hudson Hawk suddenly declares his affection for the entire line of Sam Adams products.  Then, we'll surely know.

the giants would be stupid to deal him.   They should've just built their rotation around cain and lincecum and let someone else win the zito sweepstakes, but now because they have that horrible contract they have to put their cheaper younger, better pitcher/s on the block for offensive help.
