Cain Expected To Sign Five-Year Deal

By Ben Nicholson-Smith [April 2 at 1:41pm CST]

The Giants will sign right-hander Matt Cain to an extension "in the neighborhood of" five years and $110MM by Opening Day, two sources tell John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle (on Twitter).

Better than Lincecum for the long haul.

No way, look at the numbers. There not as far off as you'd think.


I dont trust Lincecum's slingshot motion either.


Over the last two seasons, Cain has matched Lincecum's numbers.

Except the one that counts. He's under .500 for his career supported by the same offense as Lincecum. Maybe he just isn't a winning pitcher.

Lincecum was 12-13 last year. Cain was 12-11



Also, Cain lasts longer in games and some of those losses went to RP in Lincecum's starts.



Im with you, JORR that wins DO have value, but I would hardly call them the only stat that matters.

Well, ultimately they're the only stat that matters. I suppose if you're the guy in the position of possibly signing a pitcher to a long term deal or you're interested in drafting him for your fantasy team, all kinds of other numbers might lead you to believe his results will be better in the future.

There are pitchers that pitch just good enough to lose.

No doubt. I dont think that applies to Cain though.
