Bowker at First?

First base has been a big question mark for the Giants since last season. The question continues with Dan Ortmeier not living up to expectations, and Rich Aurilla not really hitting. New fan favorite John Bowker didn't start yesterday against Randy Johnson, but he did work out at first base. J.T. Snow told the Chronicle, "A lot of outfielders come in and have a big, long throw, but he's got a nice, quick, short throw." Obviously, it's too early to say - but could Bowker be the answer at first.

there's more of an opening for him at first than there is in the outfield

It has been difficult to be a Giants fan these last several years - losing records, injuries, and bad contracts. We may be critical - but we stand by our team through good times and bad. The Giants remain one of the most storied franchises in the history of baseball and have a crop of new stars ready to add new pages to the Giants history books. Lincecum, Cain, Sanchez, Wilson and Sandoval are giving us reasons to be excited. Times may not always be stellar, but the Giants always give us something to talk about.
