If were going to overpay for a CF, it might as well be Michael Bourn. Hes the best defensive CF in baseball imo, has 50 steal speed, and gets on base.

Belt batting 3rd, Panda 5th and Pence 6th would work for me. I think Panda would provide better protection for Posey.

You'd rather overpay for Bourne and NOT Josh Hamilton?

Bourn might cost 75 mil. Hamilton will cost 170. Given his injury history, i wouldnt touch Hamilton with a 39 1/2 foot pole.
I think Bourn carries alot of overall value. We all saw what a huge difference it made when the leadoff hitter was getting on for the Giants. Bourn gets on base, he wreaks havoc on the basebaths, and is arguably the best defensive OF in the game. Id rather have him for around 75 than Pagan for 50.

Belt would be a good option as the 2 spot hitter if Scutaro doesn't return, hes good at getting on and has good speed as well. I wouldn't mind seeing Posey bat 3rd either, but next year if both stay healthy we could see both Panda and Posey drive in 100 runs. Posey ended the 100 RBI drought I think Panda could end the 30+ Homerun drought. Who's to say Pence can't join in either I'm projecting all 3 to have 25+ homeruns next year. I wouldn't mind having Victorino only if we can't retain Pagan.

People have been saying that.
Y'all are trippin'. Belt at #3 is perfect because the pitcher is going to have to be perfect pitching to Belt because he has the best eye on the team and patient enough to get a walk, but also enough power/pop to take advantage of mistakes. He should also get some great pitches to hit in front of posey and pablo protecting him.
