and continue to build through the minor league system IMO. They aren't anywhere close to contending right now and there's no sense in trying to be "buyers" at the deadline. This Blalock deal makes very little sense to me. The Giants have very few pieces to move, and since this team isn't trading Villalona, Sandoval, Bumgarner or Alderson, Sabean might as well just unplug his phone over the next few days. Blalock is an intriguing talent who no doubt benefits from his home park. He might ressurect his career somewhere, but lets just hope its not in a Giants uniform. Nothing against Blalock, but I just don't think its the right fit.
