Cajun Boy Fans Rejoice At Thought of Encarnacion

On the heels of a Jonathan Sanchez for Jorge Cantu rumor that left many quite disturbed, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports that the Giants have engaged in some tire kicking in regards to Edwin Encarnacion.

Encarnacion's glove at third is suspect, and although his power numbers spiked last year, his average did tumble from his 2007 level. Still, the 25 year old is already a proven commodity at a position of big need, and, unlike Cantu, his plate discipline seems to be improving markedly.

Comment! So is Dirty for Encarnacion a more palatable deal? Does anyone prefer Cantu to Edwin?

Unless the Fish are willing to trade Cantu for Jose Uribe, you want nothing to do with him. Not sure Encarnacion is the answer, but as you point out, he is only 25 and, most importantly, HE'S NOT JORGE CANTU!!

NO ENCARNACION! BETTER BAT. BETTER UPSIDE. Just as many errors as Cantu... can your website please make a "Free Pedro Feliz" t-shirt?
