Winter Meetings

[ESaady]

Scutaro is looking to get somewhere around 3/24.

If that's the case, the Cardinals better back off.

Ya. Yikes. I do not want the Giants to give him three years even though I'm sure that's what he'll get now. And I don't think he'll be worth 8M/year. I'm sure we'll regre it sometime in the second year of the contract and during the third year.

Andrew Baggarly ‏@CSNBaggs
Must've gotten wires crossed on Scutaro. I am hearing definitively now that 2years plus vesting option is what the #SFGiants last offered.

Andrew Baggarly ‏@CSNBaggs
Cardinals might have strong pull on Scutaro, who lives in Miami and could spend spring training in Florida.

That's the latest from Giants camp

SFRush posted in the Giants forum that it's 50/50 between Cards and Giants for Scoots

[sfgiants5518]

For 24 over 3 years... take him Stl.

[Orange&Black55]

For 24 over 3 years... take him Stl.

agreed, remember how we almost got stuck with Uribe for about that same amount.

[SFrush90]

Not sure what the Cards' offer is, but the Giants offered him a two-year deal with a vesting option for a third. Don't know how much money though.

Pedro Gomez now a ESPN Baseball insider that the Lee for Upton deal might still happen because I saw it on their Bottomline. Kubel could get Traded. Dempster Red Sox are in.

Ain't happening.

If it takes a 3-year deal to get Scutaro, the Giants should pass and look at a guy like Kelly Johnson.

Who projected these? Were they drunk?

27 year old Delmon Young will get a little bit more than 1 year 1 million. Really? Less than Aubrey Huff?

F no


I wanted Scutaro, before he blew up in the post-season.

He made sense for something like 1/4-5 for us. Not this sort of deal though.
