Cain and Lincecum both might lose 20 games for all the run support they’re going to get. The Giants lowered their ticket prices, does that tell you anything? They may have to charge a dollar for admission and give away beer to ever fill the park again…

Get realistic! The Giants couldn’t win a pennant AT FRESNO with their hitting which is totally pathetic at all levels. Might as well keep Cain and Lincecum if you’re going to waste roster spots on the likes of Tyler Walker. Make Vizquel a roving infield instructor (primary mission: get Eugenio Velez ready). At least Armando Rios is a step in the right direction–but not if you have to give Cain or Lincecum to get him. Why don’t they try to sign Korea’s power-hitting 1st baseman? Andy Phillips is available and they need help at 1b. Inge is available for 3b. Put Frandsen at 2b and leave him there. Send Aurilia, Durham and Roberts elsewhere and get some young, contact hitters with speed.
