Fred Lewis

Sabean On Manny, Sabathia, Sanchez

By Alex Walsh | December 4, 2008 at 5:52pm CDT

Andrew Baggarly offers some quick points following a discussion with Giants GM Brian Sabean.

  • Manny Ramirez is not on the Giants’ radar. Sabean says the team does not need another outfielder. Most would likely agree, with Fred Lewis, Aaron Rowand and Randy Winn all on the roster already.
  • Offers for CC Sabathia and Mark Teixeira seem unlikely, but Sabean refuses to rule them out. However, Sabean also says: “We’re not out there swimming with the sharks. There are too many teams with more seemingly to offer financially than where we’re at right now.”
  • Jonathan Sanchez isn’t going to be traded for, as Baggarly calls it, "any old player." This comment appears to be referring to recent rumors surrounding a Sanchez-for-Jorge Cantu swap.

Molony’s Latest: Sabathia, Teixeira, Lewis

By Tim Dierkes | June 26, 2008 at 10:47am CDT

MLB.com’s Jim Molony has a slew of hot stove info today.

  • Molony talked to some "industry types" about C.C. Sabathia, and those guys suggested the Cubs and Angels could be the frontrunners.
  • The Braves could opt for draft picks rather than a Mark Teixeira trade, even if they fall out of the race.  They’re only 4.5 games out though.
  • A David Price promotion could lead the Rays to trade Jason Hammel, Edwin Jackson, or Andy Sonnanstine.  It’ll only work if Price is promoted before the trade deadline.
  • The Cubs have scouted Giants outfielder Fred Lewis but aren’t too serious about it.
  • The Marlins are still looking for a veteran catcher.  Here’s my take on the trade market at the position.

Odds and Ends: Roberts, Garcia, Crede

By Tim Dierkes | February 21, 2008 at 11:33am CDT

Today’s assortment of links.

  • Gary Sheffield is not fond of Scott Boras.
  • Arte Moreno and the Angels aren’t closing the door on K-Rod yet.
  • Turns out Brian Roberts left camp because of a possible kidney stone.
  • From Small Ball To The Long Ball has all kinds of cool data that I haven’t seen elsewhere.  For example, average initial pitch speed for pitchers.  Dustin McGowan’s fastball: 96.11mph.  Tim Wakefield’s: 75.62mph. 
  • Seems that Freddy Garcia might wait a few months before signing.
  • Andrew Baggarly says the Giants consider Joe Crede a possible long-term piece even with his impending free agency.  So maybe if they get him and he stays healthy they’ll look to extend him.  Baggarly speculates that a guy like Fred Lewis (who is out of options) could work for a Crede swap.

Giants Rumors: Lincecum, Tejada, Sexson

By Tim Dierkes | December 4, 2007 at 11:43am CDT

Andrew Baggarly gives his take on the Giants hot stove buzz.

  • One Reds official think the Giants almost have to trade Tim Lincecum to build an offensive core.  It seems the Mariners and Reds in particular are pushing for Lincecum.  The Ms could offer Adam Jones; the Reds have Jay Bruce, Joey Votto, and Josh Hamilton.  The Mariners could’ve had Lincecum with the fifth overall pick in 2006, but opted for Brandon Morrow instead.  The Reds could’ve had him too but went for Drew Stubbs.
  • The Giants and Orioles discussed Miguel Tejada, and the O’s like players such as Jonathan Sanchez, Brad Hennessey, Fred Lewis, and Guillermo Rodriguez.  Outside of Sanchez those guys don’t seem like what the Orioles would ask for to me.  No deal is close.
  • Baggarly talks of the rumored Richie Sexson for Ray Durham or Rich Aurilia swap, though Larry LaRue says it’s bogus.
  • The one team inquiring on Bengie Molina was the Mets, and that was before they got Brian Schneider.
