If the rumor mill is the slightest bit accurate, and of course it all depends on the number and quality of prospects they have to give up, put me down as being in favor of the Giants acquiring:
- "Big Game" James Shields
- David Price
- Jeff Samardzija
from Bleacher Report:
Giants Rumors: Team Interested, Not Interested in Jeff Samardzjia:
The Giants sent a high-level scout to watch the Cubs play the Marlins. Because that's what they're supposed to do, just in case. Unless they're REALLY interested.'via Blog this'
Shields just "fits" the Giants better than the others and Price with the adrenalin punch of being back in a pennant race could be dominating. I'm not sure that Samardzija has ever really been described much as either dominating or nails enough to be nicknamed "Big Game".
Just MO. Put me down as more "not interested" than "interested" in the Cubs ace. Plus, the other two have the advantage of being AL pitchers. The NL hitters don't have as much of a mental "book" on them.
