Yes Sabean has made some questionable trades the last few years (Nathan and Lariano for AJ come to mind) but please. If they want Johnson that bad then offer Sanchez. He's at least a No. 3 SP on that rotation.
You're underestimating Saben. He'll probably give up Cain and another player for Johnson.
So true, so very, VERY true.
I assume that trading Cain will remain a rumor, remember the deal was on the table to trade Lincecum to the Blue Jays for Rios and Sabean didn't pull the trigger. Plus the Giants are waiting on the young guns to catch up, with no Lowry in the future they'd be dead in the water trading away a front line starting pitchers for any hitters. They again need to wait and snag one big bat in the free agent market, instead of giving another over the hill average hitter, like Rowand and Renteria, too much money to stink it up. I highly doubt they move any of the three Cain, Sanchez or Zito.
