I looked at Nolasco's salary and career stats and my verdict is if the Giants could get Nolasco in a salary dump style trade, they should pull the trigger but shouldn't give up significant prospects.
Nolasco makes 11.5M this year and then is a FA
Career ERA around 4.5 this year so far 3.98 ERA
With that said I think there is a good shot at prying him from the Marlins by just taking the salary and a marginal prospect or two.

He'd pitch better in our park too. I would think so anyway.

I agree with not giving up any significant prospects for Nolasco. The guy is the ultimate underachiever. I would think the Marlins would LOVE to dump that salary right now.

Kickham went 6 1/3 innings and only allowed 1 Earned Run, this would be 5 good starts in a row.
I'm definitely in favor of calling up Kickham unless of course we could get Nolasco as a salary dump style trade

Question for you Giant fans. Cardinals are playing the Dodgers this weekend.
Do you root for the Cardinals to beat your rivals?
OR
Do you root for the Dodgers (because they suck) and hope the Cardinals lose (to get the best record in the NL)
???
For example, if the Cubs were playing the Giants...I would probably root for the Cubs. They don't stand a chance and the Giants are in my way of getting that top record.

Cards.
It's early. Always root against your division. Always.
