Are they entering Spring Training with an equal shot at the no. 5 spot, or is it Hennessey's job to lose? Sabean: Hennessey, last year, had 13 quality starts out of 21 starts and because of that will be given a bona fide shot to become our fifth starter. Correia showed signs of brilliance last year and his overall stuff is really intriguing. Also, we've signed Jamey Wright to a Minor League non-roster invite. Jamey was with Colorado last year and has pitched well in the past as a fifth starter type. 按：雖然找來了 Jamey Wright，不過對 Hennessey 來說也不見得是壞事。至少代表 Sabean 應該不會再找其他的投手來競爭了。不過 Jamey Wright 在 SBC Park 投的不錯，而且又是有實績的投手，說不定會比較得 Sabean 喜愛… 關於我們的先發一壘手： giantman2: Brian, how many at-bats do you see Lance Niekro getting? Hopefully he'll get the majority of at-bats at first base, regardless of lefty-righty matchups. Sabean: At this point in time, Lance will be given a chance to win the job full-time. We feel he's put himself in a position to do so. It remains to be seen exactly what will transpire with the number of at-bats, especially against right-handed pitching, thus the reason for bringing in Mark Sweeney to help his transition into becoming a full-time player. 按：我要一壘大棒棒！！！ 關於 Randy Winn： dedicated2giants: Has there been any progress in long-term contract discussions with Randy Winn? Sabean: We're very interested in signing Randy long-term. I talked to him as recently as today and he is interested in pursuing a multi-year deal. Formal talks won't begin until the end of the month or the first week in February. 按：只要不要簽太貴，跟 Winn 簽下長約其實是很不錯的選擇 關於 Steve Finley： dedicated2giants: Have you spoken with Steve Finley on his role with the team? Since being acquired, he has not seemed too pleased with the idea of being a bench player, albeit a often used one. Sabean: I have spoken with Steve, including just recently, and his desire is the same as ours: to play as much as possible. We feel confident that he'll get plenty of at-bats in our outfield. The only complicated situation that is inherent is that his best position is center field and we are in the process of trying to sign Randy Winn long-term at that position. Having said that, we do have a club option on Steve and it is in our best interests to make sure he does get ample playing time in order to evaluate him properly against picking up that option. So simply stated, we do not view Steve as a bench player, more as a starter in an outfield that will probably change on a day-to-day basis to utilize everybody's strength and keep everybody fresh and healthy. 按：Sabean 你沒看到 Finley 去年的成績嗎？我寧願期待 Linden 開竅… 關於我們的三壘手： giantskent: Do you think that Pedro Feliz will pan out at third base? Sabean: Pedro will be our everyday third baseman and quite frankly, he's one of the better defensive third basemen in our league. To have him in the lineup every day at that position as well as hitting further down in the lineup this year should be good for all parties. 按：看來 Sabean 對我們的先發三壘手很滿意 orz 拜託讓 Feliz 回去當工具人吧！ 交易來木馬的想法： dedicated2giants: Looking back on the LaTroy Hawkins trade, do you feel you jumped the gun or was it a neccessary move for a possible playoff run? Sabean: Looking back, I do have the same feeling that we were in a desperate situation in the bullpen. Our starters were not providing the innings needed, home or road, and the bullpen certainly was being overtaxed. 按：反正 Sabean 也不是第一次把年輕人交易出去了，就算拿 Pierzynski 那筆交易去 問 Sabean 他大概也不會覺得不應該… 為何不找老朋友 Aurilia： Howard_Lewengrub: Why did you choose to sign Vizcaino over Rich Aurilia? The price was about the same and Aurilia is younger and a better hitter. Sabean: We had bona fide interest in Richie, but unfortunately his signing would have cost us another draft pick and we felt with the picks we lost last year, and the two we've already lost this year, that it was time to hold onto our picks. 按：我看到 Sabean 說不想 lost draft picks，我有看錯嗎？ 最近真的是沒什麼新聞，板上已經好多天沒文章了 orz --
