The Calendars are at the printers

2008 Calendar Cover:

With the roster finalized, I finished the 2008 SJ Giants Fans Season Calendar and sent it off to the printer today. I should be able to start shipping them early next week. As was the case last year, only a small number of calendars are being produced. Based on last year, I expect them to go quickly.

All calendar sales must be made through the SJ Giants Fans website. If you have any questions, please contact me at trclifton(at)gmail.com.

New Faces

As expected, the 2008 SJ Giants roster contains lots of new faces. When you win the Cal League, you don't expect too many returning players. The 2008 roster contains only eight players who have worn an SJ Giants uniform before. Returning from the 2007 squad are Ryan Paul, Jesse English, Talyor Wilding, Pablo Sandoval, Brad Boyer, and Mike Mooney. Tyler La Torre was with the team briefly in 2006 as was Craig Witakaker (though I don't think I ever saw him pitch).

Notable amoung the new faces are Tim Alderson, Kevin Pucetas, and Ryan Rohlinger. Alderson was the 22nd pick over all in last years draft. Pucetas owned the lowest ERA in minor league baseball last season. Rohlinger was a late addition to the big league camp this season (when most people are moving down, he moved up).

It is going to be fun meeting and watching the new SJ Giants this year.

You can view the full roster here.
