He's the only hitter on the Giants team who has real upside. We know what most of these other guys can do, and outside Posey and Sandoval it's not much. They need to get this guy into the lineup not send him to Fresno to beat up on a league he's already mastered.

Shuffle the OF around and/or bench Huff. Pagan and Schierholtz are both 4th OF types, there's no reason they should both get full time gigs and block Belt.

- My take. Minor tweaks. - overkirilenko! 2012-01-30 12:07:38 (13 views)
- I'm not sold on Schierholtz. Think he's more the fan favorite. I think Belt will be in (the extra work will pay off) and hope Pill stays. - juan 2012-01-29 02:44:04 (32 views)
- Hoping they finally dump Stewart and Whiteside, as H Sanchez is better all around.. - Ghost Dog 2012-01-28 08:31:22 (17 views)

  - I think Schierholtz turned the corner last year. - Hawk_941 2012-01-29 00:42:28 (25 views)
    - I like his defense but Schierholtz just doesn't hit enough for a corner OF on a team that struggles to score runs - microwave donut 2012-01-30 16:24:27 (16 views)
    - +1 on all that - tajackamo 2012-01-29 03:01:06 (21 views)
      - The thing about Schierholtz is that he adjusted his stance and it worked. Then, pitchers changed how they pitched to him. And he adjusted again. Good stuff. I hope this carries over. Because he needs to be in RF for us. - starburst 2012-01-29 09:35:35 (6 views)
        
        Schierholtz plays AT&T's RF as well as Andy Lee punts - tajackamo 2012-01-29 20:03:28 (12 views)
        
        I compare it to the way JT played 1B. - overkirilenko! 2012-02-02 12:17:20 (5 views)
  - Pill has more upside than Belt IMO--at the plate.. - Ghost Dog 2012-01-28 08:56:52 (31 views)
  - agreed, but they're not going to give huff 12 mil to warm the bench. he will - skontch 2012-01-28 07:17:35 (38 views)
    - I don't see the power, 18 in over 1000 ML AB's - microwave donut 2012-01-30 16:35:18 (10 views)
    - I think Belt will start at first if he hits. - Earl j. Slick 2012-01-30 13:10:12 (12 views)
