If you’re looking for some good San Francisco Giants talk. You should follow Marty Lurie. Today he sent out a tweet to get fans baseball juices flowing. Lurie said ( via Twitter ) it’s time to pull Ryan Vogelsong from the rotation. “He is killing the ‘pen & the affect on the rest of the staff is not worth another start.” Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle snowballs on top of that topic, and says ( via Twitter ) he doesn’t see any savior from the minors. If Vogelsong is skipped, Chad Gaudin will likely get the ball. Andrew Baggarly of CSNBayArea.com says GM Brian Sabean told him that he’s heard Brian Wilson will showcase himself over the All-Star break or thereabouts. Sabean doesn’t know how Wilson is throwing, but does know that he’s working out like a fiend.

SF Giants Rumors: Melky Cabrera, It Wasn’t Muscle Melk

The San Francisco Giants finished a 7-3 homestand, and then were off to see Melky Cabrera and the Jays in Toronto. Manager Bruce Bochy presented Cabrera with his World Series ring in a private setting. Bochy said Melky wanted it that way, and Melky says Bochy wanted it that way. I think it’s safe to say that Melky didn’t want the presentation to be public with the way he left the team last year. Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle say (via Twitter) Melky didn’t address his Giants teammates when he was suspended because “somebody” said it would be a bad idea. However, Melky refused to say who the “somebody” was. Melky isn’t putting up the kind of numbers he was last year for the Giants thus far. However, he did light the Giants up for four hits in last night’s game. To make matters worse, the Giants also lost the game 10-6.

The Giants have optioned outfielder Francisco Peguero to Triple-A Fresno and recalled first baseman Brett Pill, who has wielded a hot bat down there. Peguero also hit well in Fresno but was 3-for-16 with spotty defense during his brief stay in San Francisco. Pill, 28, is hitting .341 with a 1.054 OPS for the Grizzlies. [...] ...
