Where's he gonna play? Infield is set and aoki is coming back, believe it or not for once this team doesn't need hitting help it needs pitching. Pagan I feel is our only weakness right now at the plate and obviously Duvall isn't a CF.

lol simple..he can not hit big league pitching. & his defense is an issue. Sorry gents but this guy is one of those classic great Minor League Players, but not Big League Stuff.

I think the Giants will not be adding a Position Starter. Most likely will be a bench guy. Especially for the OF. but depth for the bench is what they could add.
I see a Parra, Revere, Byrd as options.
Pagan just needs some rest. He's playing hurt it seems like. If we can get someone to spell him & have him rest up that will be huge.

I think the bullpen is a ? mark. Romo needs to get his s**t together. He fools no one anymore even though this wknd he looked good. Affeldt hopefully can regain his magic. But I would not be opposed to an addition of Chapman.

I'd like to see them go after Upton next yr. but he will get the big $$$. Would be nice to have a power RF.

Parra is a natural fit for this ball club, I hope we get him

You forgot that we have pence at RF? The money will go to pitching I believe

Think they're happy with Blanco being the 4th OF, doubt we add any positional players before the deadline. I'd guess we'd add to the bullpen if anything, but who knows with Affeldt coming back

I just dont think we can afford to mortgage our pitching future. We need them bad. If he does, he better go hard in the SP FA paint in the offseason with Grienke, Cueto, Price, etc.

But I dont think you should trade a possible SP for a bench player. If we needed a starting OF with power, or a different starter, sure. But not for a bench player. Unless we are talking Chapman as a closer here. I doubt it though.

This. We're going to need another top end starter at some point if we want to win another even year world series next year.

As they should. Need to use him more in CF when Aoki returns.

Duvall has 73 official major league ABs and you're already writing him off? Sorry gent, but that's not very smart.
