Boras… Who cares what he thinks
Gogerty
Most of his clients are happy.

If Scott is happy, we’re happy.
Wanna buy a bridge?

If he’s a Boras client he could probably afford it.

I agree who gives a rats ass what that jerk thinks

I like how boras is vocal with his players in regards to how teams handle them. He seems to really care, whether that’s for his own gain or the players is up for discussion, but he always wants what’s best for his client. He gets a lot of hate for no reason imo, if you think he’s the reason the markets so astronomical now for players, shouldn’t you blame the owners for being willing to hand out this money. He’s paid to get his guys money, and he does a damn good job at it.

I’m sure the team likes that clown telling them how to do there jobs

I’d rather the Giants pursue Chapman in free agency and we get to keep our prospects and maybe even our pick.

I agree – especially bickford – with possibly losing cueto the year after next, peavy out and the possibility of cain not returning to form we need some serious internal options for starting pitching in the next couple of years and bickford really seems like the brightest spot. Beede could be a trade option as it looks like he needs work but blackburn/arroyo/bickford should be kept internally since they will most likely be needed to fill holes (especially if duffy is shaky as he has regressed this year and as an infield depth piece if they trade shaw).

I’m surprised with how many players the giants have in the top 100 prospects

No hate just can I ask you why that’s your opinion.

Because the pundits consistently rank the Giants’ farm system among the weaker systems in baseball. I’d say they’re doing pretty well considering they haven’t had very high draft picks in a while due to the success of the major league team. While they don’t have flashy blue chip prospects, the current rankings do show off the depth they have in the system, and they have a track record of developing less heralded prospects into successful big leaguers.
I agree with Schulman that Shaw would be a good fit for an AL team, and he’s now blocked on a long term basis by Brandon Belt.
pustule bosey
right on with shaw – he is really interesting but barring injury unless he shifts position he doesn’t have a lot of opportunity

If the Giants get out of the Chapman/Miller discussion Shaw is a guy I would love to see head to Milwaukee in a Jeffress or Smith deal. They need a 1B and could get another serviceable year or 2 out of Carter (if they don’t trade him) to bridge the gap to Shaw. Lefty power bat would profile well in Miller Park.

Man, Carp’s injury will surely hurt the Cardinals offense. No doubt, he is their best hitter, so they need Piscotty, Grichuk and Wong to step up.

Bad link for Chris Shaw. Getting Oriole prospect, not Giants one.

Glad to hear Boras is happy….*sigh*
