"When the Giants Come to Town..." is my blog intended to chronicle my thoughts on San Francisco Giants baseball. My special interest is in prospects and the farm system, but of course, will comment on all aspects of the San Francisco Giants. I will also comment on baseball in general, particularly from a fantasy baseball perspective. I hope you will find the site informative, and invite you to join in the discussion.

DeRosa Agrees to Terms
I like the signing. At age 35 and moving to AT&T, it's not reasonable to expect him to rebound to the level of his Cubs years, but I do expect a positive regression from last season. DeRosa will be an upgrade at any one of several positions, and his versatility is a big plus. I would personally like to see him be the starting left fielder. The one thing I want the Giants to stay away from is long term commitments. The Giants have a top 5 ranked farm system. They need to maintain the flexibility to move these prospects onto the MLB club over the next 2-3 years. This signing keeps intact their newfound determination to avoid any more crippling long term contracts.
