After a winter in which the Giants heard their fans’ wishes for a tropical vacation or a luxury car and answered those requests with a few nondescript household appliances, they finally made a splash by doing what we all knew they would: sign Tim Lincecum to a tidy little “stay of arbitration”...

It looks like Adam LaRoche will be in the orange and black. Of course, whether it’s the Giants or the Orioles is anyone’s guess. Reports are that LaRoche turned down an offer of 2 years/$17 million from the Giants, and no other team besides those two odd bedfellows are even halfway interested...

OK Sabes, which old outfielder will it be?

Now that the Giants have added Juan Uribe and Mark DeRosa to Bruce Bochy’s Swiss Army infield, where the only thing that doesn’t change from day to day is the sight of Edgar Renteria reminding all of us that we’re all going to see a day when we get old and our range sinks far below...

The most important game of the year for the Warriors…No, seriously

The Warriors are playing the second game of what seemed like a cruel joke of a back-to-back when the schedule was released, a road game against the Lakers after facing the Celtics at home. The game takes place in about an hour, and it’s not crazy to say this is the Warriors’ most important...

Spending other people’s money

It’s almost a relief that the Brian Sabean didn’t dive into free agency from the start with the same vigor as a child who sees one of those giant inflatable bouncer things for the first time. He did that last year, and ended up going 1-for-4 on his veteran spending spree, as Sabean turned...

Angel Villalona suspected of murder

Angel Villalona suspected of murder...
It’s like a Sunday several years ago, when this news ran across the ESPN crawler: “Kobe Bryant arrested on felony sexual assault charges in Eagle, Colorado.” I just got this text from my buddy Carp. Instead of a celebratory comment about Frank Gore, I got this:

The Giants just…won’t…die

Part of you is near reverential, the other part of you is exhausted and secretly wishes it would all just end. The San Francisco Giants, the team that tonight came within 2.5 wins of the over/under Las Vegas set for them before the season, is again only 3.5 games behind the Colorado Rockies. 3.5. It...

Thoughts from the road with the Giants at home

Sports doesn’t stop on holidays, it just gets harder to record. Let me explain: when you’re at the house of one or both of your parents, the maximum amount of times you can ask for something to be recorded on their DVR is once per trip. Our one request was that my dad tape the Washington/LSU...

Odd man out: Renteria or IshiGarko?

Odd man out: Renteria or IshiGarko?...
Freddy Sanchez will be back either tomorrow or Monday, and not a moment too soon. The Giants could explode for 10 runs today on national television against Yovani Gallardo, but that doesn’t erase the fact that they’ve scored 5 runs in the first 4 games of their current road trip. The lineup...
