I'm just here to troll everyone
I'm not sure the Giants will resign Beltran. Of course if they do then he would be our LF and Melky and Torres can battle it out in CF. I'm kind of hoping the Yankees pick him up and buy out Swisher and the Giants pick Swisher up.
Torres CF
Sanchez 2B
Scherholtz RF
Posey C
Sandoval 3B
Melky/Belt LF
Huff/Belt 1B
Crawford SS
or if we get Swisher
Melky CF
Sanchez 2B
Swisher LF
Posey C
Sandoval 3B
Schierholtz RF
Huff/Belt 1B
Crawford SS
I think Torres will have a bounce back year and play closer to his levels in 2010 then 2011. Giants need to sit him down and tell him he's a leadoff hitter and he should prepare for that role and not a power guy. If he doesn't get that he's a leadoff hitter not a HR hitter then Melky moves to CF and Belt in LF
Totally agree. Why are so many of you (and Bill James!) already pencilling in Beltran? I'd say we have maybe a 20% chance of getting him at best.
As for Torres, I don't see how you can project that. I'd love to see it, and I was skeptical Panda could bounce back as strong as he did, but there's a huge difference. Torres was a nonentity, had an amazing 2010, then came back to earth. He's old. I just don't see how 2010 is anything but an aberration.
Also, Swisher would indeed be a nice pickup if he became available, relative to our budget.
