Hillenbrand to the Giants

by JJStuart on Jul 21, 2006 11:43 PM CDT

I was watching Baseball tonight, they just said Shea is going to SF to play 1B.... dont know who for, but at least hes not going to LAA or another AL West team...

I think this could be a good move for SF, considering how weak the NL West is. He cant hurt. I guess we will see. Still glad hes not going to be a Ranger.

another awful trade by Sabean. I think Accardo has a good chance is going to be a real good reliever in this league for many years.

A good reliver for

a .300 hitter and immediate help for their bullpen in a division that they are only 1/2 game back and have a legitimate chance to win.

They are a old team that was not currently built for the future but for now.

If I am them I do this trade and hope it gets you in the playoffs.

Unlike the AL, the NL is wide open. Yes, the Mets are the best but if Pedro is not healthly anyone can represent the NL in the WS.

I do it if I am the giants.

Yeah

I don't see it as a horrible trade, either. People around here are prospect-centric, though.

not bad

they probably gave up more than hillenbrand was worth, but the giants want to make a push this year to win being bonds last year most likely, and they can win it. the nl west is pretty open

Pimps be damned, it's harder out here for a Rangers fan!
