If Matt Cain wants to be a Giant so bad, why does he play half his games in other stadiums, hmmmm?
HummBaby
Nice one. Made me laugh.

This comment just won the internet.

They need to pony at least 110 million for 6 or equivalent, i think he has earned that much
SFrush90
That’s too low. He’ll be getting 20M/year most likely.
Havok9120
Too low by 1.7 mil/year is part of the benefit of getting to him before he hits Free Agency. Especially since he doesn’t seem the type to keep a scorecard of his salary.
That said, I’d LOVE to see the Union’s reaction if he signed for less than 20M/year. He definitely deserves at least that.
SFrush90
The problem is though he isn’t willing to give the Giants a hometown discount. They’ll have to pay market value unfortunately.
I would love to see Cain sign a contract below 20M/year too.

Lets back into the playoffs one time and then think were baseball juggernauts.

Better than serving as a farm team for the rest of the Majors, I suppose.
SFrush90
Here we go again, the little brothers thinking they’re better than the big brother.

Don’t sign Matt!

So…sounds like he’s lowballing him
SFrush90
My thoughts exactly.
notsureifsrs
awesome. i didn’t even read the post. read the title and said to myself aaaand that’s how you know they’re definitely lowballing him

Honestly, I think the Giants are trying to stiff Cain or at the very least shake him down! :p
SFrush90
Agreed.
FrnchDp
why?

With the Dodgers getting new owners, this little tiff potentially could turn ugly. Ya know, Magic is gonna be on Matt Cain and give him the full court press.
Havok9120
Its one thing for the beat writers to work in all the basketball terms, but can we laymen please stop it? Its cheesy enough when they do it without us kicking in too.

the last time the Dodgers bought high on a RH FA pitcher from the Giants it didn’t work out so well.
i’d rather shoot for Hamels and if there was actually a budget go for Greinke as well.
that being said, anything Kasten/Colleti can do to drive up the price for Cain and either get Sabean to overpay or have Cain end up away from SF is appreciated.
Matt Armstrong
he’s disappointed they didn’t use the club option because the team found floating bodies in his elbow. now he wants market value or more. give it to him. he’s worth it in innings and leadership alone.

Sorry giants fans Cains gonna be wearing blue this winter HAHAHA GO DODGERS
