Cueto ready for season despite rough outing.
Giants righty yields 4 runs over 4 1/3 innings vs. Indians
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Giants right-hander Johnny Cueto insisted that nobody should worry about him, though he looked vulnerable in Monday's outing against the Indians.
Cueto concluded the Cactus League portion of his regular-season preparation by yielding four runs and seven hits in 4 1/3 innings in the club's 5-4 loss. Indians first baseman Yonder Alonso was Cueto's primary tormentor, homering twice in a 3-for-3 afternoon.
Teslukbla, thanks for providing this forum for the Giants fans formerly on GB.
Let's Go Giants!

The Cubs plan to release Peter Bourjos. The Giants should sign him to add outfield depth.

Bumgarner has surgery on hand, out 6-8 weeks
Giants left-hander Madison Bumgarner underwent surgery to insert three pins into his left pinkie finger on Saturday. He's expected to be sidelined for six to eight weeks.
Bumgarner was hit in the left hand by a line drive off the bat of Royals second baseman Whit Merrifield during a Cactus League game on Friday, resulting in a fracture of the fifth metacarpal. According to an Associated Press report, manager Bruce Bochy said it would be "a couple months, give or take," before Bumgarner would be back on the mound for San Francisco.
Wishing Madison a full and speedy recovery.
Let's Go Giants!

The Giants shutout Philly, today. Now have back to back shutouts.
With Hunter Pence returning to the active roster, Gregor Blanco has been designated for assignment. Plans are for him to go to the Sacramento River Cats.
