 Freddy Sanchez-2B- GiantsJan. 22 - 3:16 am et
A source informed Mychael Urban of CSNBayArea.com Thursday that Freddy Sanchez's shoulder surgery took place four whole weeks ago.
It's odd that the Giants would think they could keep the procedure under wraps, especially in this day and age. Sanchez's initial rehab timeline was eight weeks, according to Urban's source, but the second baseman experienced a setback recently. The cloud of shadiness surrounding this whole mess has us thinking he almost certainly won't be ready by Opening Day, and maybe not until early May. Juan Uribe is expected to fill in at second base and is a worthwhile draft day selection in NL-only leagues.

Freddy Sanchez underwent arthroscopic surgery recently on his left shoulder and might not be ready for Opening Day.
"He's going to be a little delayed," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Thursday evening in a phone interview with a local San Francisco radio station. "It'll be close if he can go opening day or not." Sanchez also had left knee surgery back in late September. Juan Uribe may have to fill in at second base for the few weeks that he's out.

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.

Giants signed infielder Juan Uribe to a one-year, $3.25 million contract.
General manager Brian Sabean discussed Uribe as the club's starting third baseman on Tuesday, so it appears that Pablo Sandoval is headed to first base and Mark DeRosa will play left field. Uribe, 30, hit .289/.329/.495 with 16 home runs and 55 RBI last season. His versatility suited the Giants well last season, so this plan isn't necessarily set in stone.

According to ESPN.com's Buster Olney, the Giants' new one-year deal with Juan Uribe is worth $3.25 million.
It's a large salary to pay a guy who doesn't have a clearly defined role, but Uribe did hit .289/.329/.495 last year with 16 home runs and 55 RBI in 432 plate appearances. He's expected to serve in a sort of super-utility role next year, filling in all around the Giants' infield.

Juan Uribe's new contract with the Giants does not contain an option for 2011, according to Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle.
It's just a one-year deal, which makes more sense for the utility-like role he'll play for the club in 2010. If Uribe hits well in limited time, perhaps he'll be in line for a raise next offseason. The 30-year-old hit .289/.329/.495 last year with 16 home runs and 55 RBI in 432 plate appearances.
