With only 3-1/2 weeks until the season starts the Giants are already looking like they could repeat their championship season of 2010.
In spring training games the Giants are 8-3 so far. The best pitching staff in the majors is all here and no one seems to have any injuries or arm problems. Brian Wilson had a back injury but pitched today and the opponents went 3-up, 3-down (with 2 of them striking out).
Buster Posey looks like the next big breakout star of MLB. This will be his first full season in the majors and already the only catcher that surpasses Posey is Joe Mauer.
Pablo Sandoval has lost approx. 35 lbs. since last season and that bodes well for the Giants middle lineup.
Miguel Tejada steps in for Juan Uribe, and though Uribe may average a few points higher than Tejada, expect more power from Tejada than Uribe. Again this should bode well for the middle of the Giants lineup.
Brandon Belt looks to be the rookie breakout this year. In the minor last year he hit .352 overall despite advancing from A to AAA all during the same season. If he makes the squad he add potential to the top of the lineup.

I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them.
