Does Cabrera deserve a ring?

   Melky Cabrera says he deserves a WS ring as he gave everything to the organization. Was having a MVP season and was the All-Star MVP before he went on vacation for the rest of the summer. The Giants say they have his ring size and will be providing him with one. Wonder if a bigger size is in order now since thay last checked? What do you guys think about this?

Absolutely deserves a ring. Absolutely deserves a pre-game moment June 4th when the Jays are in town. I hate to champion false sincerity, but the Giants will take the high ground and gives this story every opportunity to die as quiet a death as possible.

At least until the World Series. Then, we should throw at that coward's head.

He gets a ring as per MLB rules.

Does he deserve one? He took PED's.

Which Melky will appear? The one that was a "4th outfielder" for Joe Torre or a possible batting title winner? Wii the real Melky please stand up?

Yes he deserves a ring.  He was part of the team for half of the season.  You can say what you want about how well he would have done without PEDs but the ring is his. 


Thanks, Melky for what you did for the Giants while you were here.   Good luck the the BlueJays.  

As much as I detest these guys that use PEDS to enhance their performance and cheat the game, and all that that entails, as of now he has served his time per MLB rules, and "more" than contributed to the Giants' presence in the "tournament" last season.

So, give him a ring, but present it to him in a pill bottle. 

He'll get his ring, and he deserves it.

But will the Giants allow the "Melkmen" to parade around the park?   I think not...

By rule he gets a ring...our way of saying thanks for the half of a season that you gave us.  But mail it to him.  In fact, don't put any postage on the package.  Make him use some of the 16 million that he earned by using PEDs to pay the postage.

I feel no sympathy for Melky.  He chose to use.  He knew he might get caught.  He knew that he would face a suspension and sit out the rest of the season.  The Giants and their fans only treated this guy with love and respect.  He didn't reciprocate.

On the other hand, you're a baseball player from the DR making several million a year.  If you cheat, get caught and are never allowed to play again, you're still a millionaire in the U.S and a multi-millionaire in the DR.  Now, if you get caught, must sit out some games, still get a WS ring and a percentage of the money, THEN sign a contract with another team for more than double what you made when you were suspended, is it worth it?  Hell, yes.  In fact, if I'm Melky Cabrera, I'd do it again in a heartbeat.  You'd be a fool not to.  This isn't about Melky being a Giant, this is about Melky looking out for Melky.  With Melky's new contract, there isn't anything in the DR that he can't own.

With Melky's new contract, there isn't anything in the DR that he can't own.

Except personal and family safety, maybe.

You're right, Flamingo, but in the DR he might be able to purchase an army!!!!
