Stragglers

People have asked about a couple of other trades. Ryan Garko for Scott Barnes: I thought I weighed on this one earlier. I guess not. Barnes is a solid prospect, decent fastball, strong secondary stuff, excellent stats in the California League, and another guy that was a...

Reaction: Freddy Sanchez Trade

Mlb_jun_21_7439
Freddy Sanchez is an upgrade. The Giants have received less production from their second basemen than any other team has received out of any position. With Ryan Garko and Sanchez on the team, 20% of the lineup went from "yick" to "meh?", which is a pretty substantial...
