 Juan Uribe-SS- GiantsJan. 6 - 9:28 am et
Giants general manager Brian Sabean indicated Tuesday that Juan Uribe could start at third base next season for the club.
In that scenario, Pablo Sandoval would slide to first base and newly inked utilityman Mark DeRosa would move to left field. Uribe, 30, just signed a fresh one-year, $3.25 million contract. He hit .289/.329/.495 with 16 home runs and 55 RBI last season and the Giants would love to keep his bat in the everyday lineup. "We've got till opening day to figure this out," Sabean said.

 Mark DeRosa-3B - Giants Dec. 29 - 4:39 pm et

Giants signed utilityman Mark DeRosa to a two-year, $12 million contract.
GM Brian Sabean has yet to reveal where DeRosa will play, but it makes sense for him to take over at third base and for Pablo Sandoval to slide over to first. DeRosa, 34, batted .250/.319/.433 with 23 homers and 78 RBI this past season. He doesn't boast the kind of pop that is going to cure the Giants' offensive woes, but his presence in the lineup certainly won't hurt the club.

According to Mychael Urban of CSNBayArea.com, Mark DeRosa has passed his physical and is set to sign a two-year deal with the Giants.
The deal is thought to be worth $12 million total, or about $6 million annually. DeRosa batted .250/.319/.433 with 23 homers, 23 doubles and 78 RBI this past season and is expected to man third base for the Giants in 2010.

Mark DeRosa has completed a physical with the Giants, reports Jayson Stark of ESPN.com.
If he passes, DeRosa is expected to sign a two-year deal worth around $12 million. The Giants no doubt want a full report on DeRosa's wrist after he underwent surgery in October to repair a torn tendon sheath. He's expected to be ready for spring training. DeRosa batted .250/.319/.433 with 23 homers, 23 doubles and 78 RBI this past season.

Mark DeRosa is close to accepting a two-year deal from the Giants, reports Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com.
It has been rumored that the Giants offered DeRosa a two-year, $12 million contract. Assuming Rosenthal's report is correct and he signs with San Francisco, DeRosa would step into a full-time gig, likely at third base, with Pablo Sandoval making the switch across the diamond to first base, where he'll be less of a defensive liability long-term. DeRosa, 34, would also be used as a "super-utility man," according to Rosenthal, filling in around the diamond as the Giants see fit. He batted .250/.319/.433 with 23 homers, 23 doubles and 78 RBI this past season.

Mark DeRosa is leaning towards accepting a two-year deal from the Giants, reports Buster Olney of ESPN.com.
Just yesterday it was rumored that the Giants offered DeRosa a two-year, $12 million contract, so perhaps the market for the veteran utility player wasn't as strong as once thought. Should he sign with San Francisco, DeRosa would step into a full-time gig, likely at third base, with Pablo Sandoval making the switch over to first base, where he'll be less of a liability in the long-term.
