I posted this, this Saturday mooring on the old E board. Thought it would it would be a good thread here .
The rumor is the Giant's are thinking about payroll and who to keep and who goes!
This would require a trade. What the Giant's need is offense and replacement of Lincecum in the rotation, IE better than a 5th starter. at this point I would consider trading Porcello in a package. Right now Depth Chart on Sports.Yahoo.com, shows no one at right field. Tigers have a few outfielders with MLB experience. Inge ,CF he can go, Kelly, LF<RF<CF hate to lose him,as he plays infield as well, Raburn, play everywhere, should be in the NL anyway,IMHO, good bat 2nd half?!,Strieby?, Would put Huff and puff back in right then,unless Rayn could play it. Thomas can play OF,Dirks Really would hate to lose him!,Jackson? Dirks or Thomas would have to play Center,or cough,cough,cough Inge, cough!!!! Not sure trade would work for Tigers in that case! Young could be a player that the Giant's could used. Boesch?, hum, I'm still holding to he will make an everyday player, his power is needed in this lineup, He had a bad 2nd half in 2010 an injury in 2nd half 2011, But the up side is still there IMO.
All said and done there are a couple in there, should the Giants take I would jump for joy. and a couple that would make me wonder about. But the Tigers do have a few to chose from in such a trade with the Giants.
This goes to show that DD has been doing and getting better farm players lately.
Remember, Tigers got a good trades out of Joyce, Wells and Maybin as well. Au Tigers got pitching in all those trades, cough ,cough, Willis, cough,O YEA , got CABRERA , for Maybin in that one.
So a trade of an outfielder/pitcher for a pitcher is not an unreal deal. Throw some money in the deal as well and lets trade.Anyway you look at it, It is something to think/talk/post about until something happens.
