Staying a Giant
Baseball Digest Daily has the press release from the Giants on Brian Sabean's extension. I have mixed feelings about this. For most of his tenure, Sabean did a good job, and along with Dusty Baker they got more out of this team than you would expect. But the recent spate of signing old position players may set them back for a number of years. I know they were trying to put together a winner quickly to get Bonds back to the World Series, but it just didn't work. If and when Bonds leaves, it will be interesting to see how Sabean tries to rebuild the team.

There is another explanation for the surprising success of the Sabean/Baker teams. A certain chemistry lab a few miles south of San Francisco. Balco.
