SF Giants Rumors – Winn Out, Park In?
Posted on January 27th, 2010 by admin in SF Giants Rumors
Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle says (via twitter) the Giants like RHP Chan Ho Park. Giants want him on a minor league deal. Park is seeking a big league deal. Still could be a match down the road.
Randy Winn
Joel Sherman of the New York Post has reported that the Yankees have reached a one-year deal with Randy Winn. The deal is believed to be in the $2 million range that the Yankees had allocated for the forth outfielder job, and shuts the door on any late pursuit of Johny Damon.
King of Cali thoughts: The Park rumor was out earlier in the offseason, and then it kind of died. Well I guess it’s back again. I’ve heard the Giants were tapped out as far as anymore offseason signings. I can’t see Park costing much money. He would be a nice option to have in the bullpen, but it’s not a must sign for the Giants. They can afford to take their time and let his options dwindle.
I must say I’m happy for Winn. I’m just glad that he’s going to go to a team that has a chance to win. He definitely deserves it. He will be missed in the Bay Area, but we had to move on. He just wasn’t cutting it at the plate anymore, and he was taking playing time from Nate Schierholtz.
