Giants probably not a playoff team without Melky Cabrera
With Melky Cabrera done for at least the rest of the regular season after
testing positive for enhanced testosterone levels, the Giants may well fall
short of the playoffs this year. Though perhaps that’s for the best, given
that the cheater is a big reason they’re tied for the NL West lead at the
moment.
Cabrera has hit .346/.390/.516 with 11 homers, 60 RBI and 13 steals this
season. That .906 OPS was good for eighth place in the National League. It
was also 97 points higher than his 2011 mark with the Royals and 177 points
higher than his career mark of .729 entering the season.
Baseball-reference WAR places Cabrera as the NL’s fourth-best position
player this season. Fangraphs WAR rates him the 11th best.
Needless to say, the team’s fallbacks don’t compare. Nate Schierholtz will
be missed, since he was included in the Hunter Pence trade. Gregor Blanco,
whose role was reduced when Pence arrived, figures to see a lot more action
now. He’s hitting just .232/.329/.343 for the season, and he’s at
.137/.297/.196 in 51 at-bats since the All-Star break. Justin Christian
figures to return to the majors to replace Cabrera on the roster.
Perhaps the Giants will go get Alfonso Soriano from a Cubs team perfectly
willing to cover a big portion of his salary. He’d replace Melky’s power,
though not his on-base ability. Aubrey Huff, on the DL with a strained knee,
could factor into the mix in left next month, but it’s nothing the Giants
can count on.
The Giants simply can’t afford any drop-off and still expect to reach the
playoffs. They’re tied with the Dodgers for the NL West lead, but the
Dodgers are playing better baseball at the moment. Their 64-53 record is tied
for fifth-best in the NL. As things stand now, both the Braves and Pirates
have better records in the wild card spots, with the Cardinals just a
half-game behind.
Cabrera will be eligible to play beginning with the Giants’ fifth game of
the postseason if the team does advance, but that would turn into a farce if
it happens. It’d be another black mark for baseball if Cabrera could get a
PED suspension and still be a postseason hero in the same year.

巨人被此篇作者看衰不是支季后赛球队
国西第一目前是道奇 外卡领先则是勇士 海盗 红雀 而且都没有人跟PED扯上关系~
小熊的Alfonso Soriano是可能的替代方案...
