Default LOL Matt Cain and Brian Sabean, hell the Giants in general

Sabean, master of the deal that sent Joe Nathan, Francisco Liriano, and Boof Bonser to Minnesota for 1 year of AJ Pierzynski, just received a 2 year extension.

Matt Cain, he of the 3.53 ERA (14th in the NL), is now 3-10.

The Giants may be in worse shape now than any other team in the league in terms of the future, and they just re-signed the man who did it to them for the next 2 years.

Thank god I bleed green and gold, but ouch, major beat for buddies across the bay.

Sabean obviously sucks, but it's hard to believe the future is that bleak with Lincecum, Cain, Lowry and Sanchez.

It is when this is your lineup signed for next year:

C: Benjie Molina
1B: Rich Aurilia
2B: Ray Durham
SS: ? David Eckstein probably?
3B: ? Pedro Feliz again?
LF: ? Freddy Lewis maybe?
CF: Dave Roberts
RF: Randy Winn

PS: Lowry runs real good and is really overrated by most Giants fans.

At least we try. A's owners don't even care about winning as long as they don't have to spend any money.

Under the last ownership group you might have had a case, but you don't anymore. Remind me again which team is getting a new stadium?

Good one, idiot.

That doesn't really work, what with the Giants having an 8 year old stadium themselves.

Meh, If you have a staff you can patch together a lineup and be competitive, especially in the NL west.

Ummm, isn't this exactly what the Giants are doing right now? Especially with the greatest player ever on their team, which they might not have next year. I'd hardly consider what they're doing now "competitive".

It's not a comparison.
