Happy Birthday Freddy Sanchez! The San Francisco Giants second baseman is confident he’ll be ready for Opening Day, according to John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle.   “I’m doing great. I’m throwing. I’m out to 60 feet now, and the shoulder’s coming along great,” said Sanchez. When Buster Posey went down the Giants were still able to battle and win some games, but when Sanchez went down. It was pretty much a done deal for the 2011 season. It’s going to be nice to see them both healthy and back in the lineup for the 2012 season! With no big free agent signings. The Giants are going to need everyone to be healthy and have good years. ~King of Cali (Steven) ———-——–—-——-——––———————-—————————————————- You can follow SF Giants Rumors Facebook page for more Giants updates!

Trying To Make Sense Of The Giants’ Off-Season Moves

Yes, the Giants lost Buster Posey at the end of May and Freddy Sanchez in June to season-ending injuries, and they lost Pablo Sandoval — their most effective hitter — for six weeks in the early...

Update on bogus Brian Burres-to-Giants rumor

by Troy Nelson, 22gigantes.com Many of you have asked me to provide an update on my post from a couple of days ago, when I wrote about how skeptical I was about the supposed report that pitcher Brian Burres had been signed to a minor league contract by the Giants. My skepticism arose as soon as I heard that the Giants had also re-signed infielder Emmanuel Burriss on the same day...
