According to Baggs, who said it may even happen today and made a reference to "pivot points" which went right over my head! Stay tuned.

My source (Baggs) is reporting that they're talking to Jeff Baker. I wanted a full time left fielder, but Baker just kills left handed pitching, making him a perfect platoon partner for Blanco. Had an OPS of 1.073 last year against lefties.

And now the rumor is that Baker ISN'T going to be a Giant.

Bobby Evans just said he hopes to have a new left fielder by tonight, but it won't be Baker.

Franklin Gutierrez has been rumored to be the guy. He hasn't played a full season since 2010, and only 81 games over the last two seasons. Right handed. Great defensive player. Not much of a hitter though. I wish I knew more about his injury history.

Yeah, I wish I had never started this thread! Baggs, straight to the moon with you! Bang, zoom! Hopefully this will get resolved today, but the names I'm hearing aren't anything to get excited about. An interesting thing to notice in the Rule V draft this morning is that Brett Bochy has been left unprotected by the Giants. The Giants can't pick anybody though, because they have no openings on the 40 man roster.
