Giants Rumors: Cabrera, Rolen, Walker

Finally some Giants rumors!  I know a few fans have been clamoring for the team to join the hot stove rumblings.  Andrew Baggarly has an article here and Henry Schulman has one here.  Let's discuss.

• The Giants have no one to play third base.  Kevin Frandsen could technically do it but they prefer him at second.  Thankfully, they will pass on Pedro Feliz.  Feliz - get this - wants a three year deal.  He's on the Brewers' radar, by the way.
• Miguel Cabrera is one option, though Baggarly doesn't see the Giants offering up Tim Lincecum to jump into the fray.  However Schulman's source says the Giants have been "one of the most aggressive teams" after Cabrera.  Who to believe? 
• Baggarly's team source doesn't expect to go after the available Scott Rolen, given his health questions and contract.  Free agents Morgan Ensberg and Mike Lamb seem more likely options at third base.
• Brian Wilson and the newly signed Tyler Walker will mix it up for the closer job.  Brian Sabean doesn't anticipate dropping big bucks/losing a draft pick for Scott Linebrink.  Nor are the Giants likely to hit up the Japanese market.
