National League Wildcard race: San Francisco Giants contenders?

Tweet

Ok, I have to admit; I am a HUGE Giants fan. Right now, the NL West seems all but lost (damn Dodger's), but lately I have been pleasantly suprised to see that the team that has supposedly taken 3 years to build actually accomplishing something in the NL wildcard. Although we were just swept by the Angels (hate em, 2002....i guess thats another story). I really think that it is too early to think about this, but after 4 years of losing seasons, its nice to see my team respond proactively. We have two of the best pitchers in the majors right now in Cain and Lincecum, and who I think will be the best hitter in the league over the next decade, Pablo Sandoval. Couple that with a few vets that can hit, good defense, decent managing, and team togetherness, and I think that they may do it! I really think that the Dodgers will fall apart when Manny comes back. They've played exceptionally well without him, and I think that his return will break up the unbelievable streak they've been on. Your thoughts?
