I don't see the Giants parting ways with Cain. They will sign him to a long term deal. But there is no immediacy to signing him. This is a staff that is signed thru 2013. I think Lincecum, Cain and Bumgarner are long time Giants. Sanchez however is the trade bait. He may be the most talented on the staff but he is also the least disciplined.

The Playoffs are bringing in more $$$$ than the Giants can imagine. It won't be a problem to keep the Three and still have money left for others. Remember coming off the books this year is a lot of dead money.
