Found January 25, 2012 on Only Baseball Matters:
TEAMS: San Francisco Giants

Lincecum gets what he wants, and I guess the Giants do as well. ….The two-year, $40.5 million deal, which was completed Tuesday but will not be official until he passes a physical next week… This deal shows that Lincecum is saying that unless the Giants start building an offense that matches his talents, he won’t be a Giant once he reaches free agency. Another two seasons of winning 13 games instead of 20, of seven starts without a single run to work with, of losing four 1-0 games…. these things are not acceptable to him, and if they continue, he will become a Yankee.

Does Tim Lincecum’s Contract Make Him Trade Bait?

Tim Lincecum signed a 2 year deal worth roughly 40 million dollars today with the San Francisco Giants. This was a very interesting sign as it was reported Lincecum turned down about 100 million dollars to stay in San Francisco for a long time.
