  • McGehee to the Giants

    made expendable by the Prado deal, the Fish send McGehee to the Giants for Hunter Strickland and another pitcher.

    That's another pretty shrewd deal for Miami. They got McGee for nothing from Japan, resurrected his career, and now spin him off for a guy who throws in triple digits. I like it a lot...

      It's Kendry Flores & Luis Castillo, not Hunter Strickland.

        So does McGehee now look like a decent play for NL-only leagues? I got him cheap last year and am hoping he can be useful again. How does the park in SF compare to Marlins park? Both extreme pitchers' parks, but beyond that?

          I'll be a monkey's uncle if he ever hits 10 homers again. Too many groundballs limits his upside but at least when he does elevate them, they haven't lost any distance

            What's his defense like? Red Sox fans are going to be surprisingly impressed with Sandoval's hands at least, it's range, particularly towards 2nd that is his weakness.

              ...then maybe not a bad play for the Giants. I'm not high on this move, but if they got a glove there, it would almost be justifiable.
