The forgotten man
That would be Kevin Frandsen, portrayed by Henry Schulman of the SF Chron. I'd gotten the impression that he might be an option at third -- particularly when he closed out 2007 so well -- but coming back from a torn Achilles is no joke. I'm not surprised the Giants aren't counting on him for much at this point.
One indication that the Giants have moved on -- Jayson Stark's reporting in his ESPN column that the Giants have given a serious look at Adrian Beltre. That's mildly comforting, given how badly they've evaluated third basemen (Alfonzo, Feliz and Aurilia) in the recent past. I'm still baffled as to why the very marginal Jose Castillo got as many at bats for the Orange and Black as he did this year. The Astros signed him up two weeks ago and he's rewarded their confidence by going 0-for-8.
