Offseason moves that MUST be made!

Here are two moves that must be made in the offseason for the San Francisco Giants.  Note, that I only listed two "musts."  Here they are:  Sign Rafael Furcal and Dan Uggla.  Before you criticize and ostercize, listen to my points and then decide for yourself.  Signing these two players would provide instant offense and stability within the order.  Look at the new potential batting order now:

1.) Rafael Furcal
2.) Fred Lewis
3.) Randy Winn
4.) Dan Uggla
5.) Aaron Rowand
6.) Buster Posey
7.) Connor Gillespie
8.) Whoever plays 1B 
9.) That day's pitcher

Bring up the two rookies, let them get seasoned, and bring in two offensive threats.  This puts speed and the ability to get on base at the top of the order, combined with some pop through the middle in Uggla, Rowand, and Posey.  Our pitching staff is young and improving every day.  Use our youngsters in the minors to come up and fill our relief and setup holes.  This seems to simple to me.  I can't believe that we don't have the money available to get these two players with Bonds departing and the vast majority of our pitching staff earning Major League minimum wage. 

Get it done front office!
