Matt Cain, starting pitcher for the San Francisco Giants, will be cashing in loads of money if he hits free agency.
Cain has spent his whole big league career in San Francisco and the Giants cannot let Cain hit the open market after the 2012 season. The righty could be an ace for most teams, and don’t let his wins and losses fool you.
After the Giants’ atrocious offense in 2011, the last thing they need to do is lose pitching. If the Giants cannot sign Cain before Opening Day, they will have plenty of competition is signing the big righty. If the Giants want to be contenders for years to come, they have to sign him as soon as possible.
