Newsbreakers

September 17, 2009

According to the San Jose Mercury News, Ryan Garko has become a forgotten man in San Francisco.

Our View:

Garko hasn't started since September 6th and has just two at-bats in the Giants last nine games. Manager Bruce Bochy has shifted Pablo Sandoval from third to first base to get Juan Uribe's hot bat into the lineup and Garko is ultimately left riding the pine. He's hitting just .232 since coming to the Giants.

August 22, 2009

Ryan Garko pounded two home runs in the Giants' 14-11 loss to the Rockies on Saturday. Garko went 2-for-5 with the two bombs, two runs scored, and four RBI in the game.

Our View:

Garko started off slowly for the Giants after he was traded, but over the last four days he has had two four-RBI games. The Giants need his bat to heat up, and it looks like it is doing so at the right time.

August 18, 2009

Ryan Garko plated four of his fellow Giants on Tuesday in a ten-inning, 8-5 win over the Reds.

Our View:

Garko has been quiet since coming over from Cleveland. Tuesday's performance doubled his RBI total as a Giant and certainly improved his .208 average coming into the game.

August 5, 2009

Ryan Garko picked up his second and third Giants RBI on Wednesday, as San Francisco spanked Houston 10-6 on the road.

Our View:

Garko now has a hit in four straight games. He's doing exactly what the Giants hoped he would, and should be a valuable contributor as the team fights for a playoff spot.

July 27, 2009

Ryan Garko has reportedly been dealt from the Indians to the Giants in exchange for left-handed pitching prospect Scott Barnes and a player to be named later, according to Ed Price's (of MLB Fanhouse) twitter page.

Our View:

If this trade is true, the Giants helped fill their need for a corner infielder. Garko is batting .285 with 11 homers this season, and now has a better supporting cast in San Francisco after leaving the struggling Indians.
