I think Holliday would want to play in SF because I read an interview he did when he was a Rockie and he said hid favorite place to play on the road is San Francisco because he is very comfortable there and he always seems to hit well there

the reason we won’t get Holliday is probably money

I think it is safe to say neither Bay or Holliday is coming to SF due to both not wanting to play here and the management not willing to do the big contracts.I do however feel that if we sign 2 of the above list minus Podsednik we can have an very good oppourtunity to win the west.

It seems that Bay is not going to come here based on what’s been said.

The problem for big sluggers coming out here is the park. They won’t be able to hit their incentives and bad numbers could set them up for a worse contract coming out of it.

So how do you fix that? You overpay. And the Giants won’t overpay now especially after the Barry Zito contract.

It would seem to be an easy thing to do since you’d think people would want to play with Lincecum and Cain pitching. Take away that Zito contract and I think the Giants would overpay some of these hitters.

man oh man what Holliday or Bay could do for the offense.

I read somewhere that the Giants have are the #9 team in baseball in terms of revenue. Why do we have the #14 Payroll then? Maybe the millionaire owners should make a few less million and invest in a team that can compete into October. They’ll make the money back on merchandising and playoff tickets
