Not Out of Outfielders

Many people have predicted that for this coming season, Dave Roberts, Aaron Rowand and Randy Winn will be the Giants starting outfielders for this coming season. While this may look likely, the Giants do have three other possibilities for the outfield in this coming season, Rajai Davis, Fred Lewis and Nate Schierholtz. Which of these six players do you think we will see starting in the Giants outfield this coming season? Comment with your input.

Bringing Back Brad

Three days ago, the Giants re-signed pitcher Brad Hennessey to a one-year deal. Hennessey has pitched for the Giants in each of the past three seasons, going back and fourth between starter and reliever. Last season, Hennessey pitched exclusively out of the bullpen, going 4-5 with a 3.42 ERA, and was even the Giants closer at one point in the season, where he got 19 saves. What type of impact do you think Hennessey will have on the Giants in the 2008 season. Do you think he will be a rotation starter, spot starter, long reliever, set up man or closer?

Race For Second Base

The Giants have quite a race going for who gets to start at second base. There are three main people who are contending for the starting position. The first player is veteran Ray Durham, who has started at second base for the Giants in each of the past five years, but has just posted one of the worst seasons of his career. The second player is Kevin Frandsen, who is a young developing player that hasn't yet had the breakout season everyone thought he would have last year. The third player is Eugenio Velez, who has proved himself as the fastest player on the Giants roster, but not much else. Who do you think will be starting at second base this coming season?

Starting Position Players

The Giants roster still has many question marks. Will Dan Ortmeier be the Giants first basemen next season, or will the Giants look into the market for one? What will they do with Kevin Frandsen at second base? Does he deserve to start there, or should someone else get a chance. Comment with you input.
