I was really hoping the Giants would get Beltre or Tejada. I can see those two guys sparking an offense. They are looking for a 1st baseman, and there is no one out there that's going to be a difference maker. I'm for giving Posey the starting role and save that money for other positions, but not to sit on it and not make any moves. ~King of Cali All The Latest SF Giants Rumors! http://www.sfgiantsbaseball.net This winter meetings has been pretty disapointing for Giants fans.

I'd love it if Posey was ready to take over, but Sabean himself said that was wishful thinking. I'd be fine with letting Molina walk if they had a plan in place to replace his bat, but that plan seems to be "sign whichever weak hitting corner infielder wants to play here." That's what bothers me. If you had your way, though, what would your ideal lineup look like right now? Thanks for reading, and thanks for the comment!

Yes, he hit 20 home runs with 80 RBI's, but he's also an aging overweight catcher looking for a multiyear deal. Not to mention the fact that his .285 OBP means he made an out over 70% of the time. Not exactly what you'd look for in a cleanup hitter. The Giants are better off letting Posey start the year behind the plate.
