- The Giants took home five GIBBYs (Greatness in Baseball Yearly Awards). They are voted by fans, media, front-office personnel, and former major-leaguers...
Tim Lincecum - Postseason MVP
Brian Wilson - Closer of the Year
Buster Posey - Rookie of the Year
Bruce Bochy - Manager of the Year
Brian Sabean - Executive of the Year
- Andres Torres is going to be the subject of a documentary. Very happy to hear this...his story is one of the better ones in baseball.
- Brian Wilson is a nominee for Sportsnation's First Annual Awesomest Dude of the Year Award.
- After the signing of Pat Burrell, Rob Neyer said this: "And at some point this winter they need to get better, somewhere." By his standards, the Giants haven't really done that. But ObsessiveGiantsCompulsive (I'm admittedly a little late in finding this post) answered Neyer's comments perfectly. Seriously. It's an awesome explanation of how the Giants have a good chance to win the NL West.
