With all the trades and the fire sale of the Astros, I was hoping Sabean could of used a little magic dust and pull off a huge trade with the Astros to get Bourne, Pence, and Keppinger. It's all in the realm of fantasy but whatever. It would of given them a fast ground attack offense with solid defense to go with the pitching, good for the next 2-3 years. In this scenario, they would give up:

Zach Wheeler
Gary Brown
Francisco Peguero
Thomas Neal
Dan Runzler
Henry Soa
Jason Stoffel
Prospect B
Prospect B
Prospect C
(probably another decent prospect but I can't think of a name)

But the future lineup would be:

CF Bourne
2B Keppinger
3B Sandoval
C Posey
RF Pence
1B Belt
LF Schierholtz
SS Crawford

Imagine all the outfield assist! But instead, we have a bunch of veterans running for the last hurrah. Let's see what the next home stand brings with the Diamondbacks and the Phillies. Woof!

Wasn't the OP stating he "was hoping" (past tense) and that it was "all in the realm of fantasy;" I took this as a "what could have been" pondering.

Agreed, I took it as the OP was wondering "what if" the giants got those guys instead of the teams that did.

That was the intent. We now know that the Astros were dealing everyone and their mothers this year.
