Giants and Lincecum settle on 2-year, $23 million deal


Lincecum and the Giants settle on 2 year, $23 million dollar deal but even better news is the other minor details that came out of Lincecum's court appearance to deal with his marijuana possession / speeding charges.

From YahooSports article:

Lincecum appeared in Clark County District Court before Judge Darvin Zimmerman, and Giants managing partner Bill Neukom was in court in a sign of support for Lincecum.

“I think a lot of growing up has to do with experiences you go through, whether that be good or bad. There’s different people who go through different experiences that shape them. It’s unfortunate also that you have to go through the bumps, like I am going through, to get to where you think you need to be. It’s just about changing yourself and looking for the right road to take instead of making it hard on yourself.”

Nice to see the Giants brass supporting their guy. And Lincecum's comments indicate that he has gained some maturity from the experience. Hopefully, he continues to make all of his news on the field rather than off it.
