Q: With the signing of International Amateur Jorge Castro (Starting Pitcher), is this the sign of a future star in the organization?

A: Well we certainly never write anyone out of the majors especially before they have a chance to progress. Jorge is 17 years old about to be 17 years old but his scouting reports shows he will have to work very hard to have any kind of career.

Q: Buster Posey fractured his hand at the start of the month, recent reports show that he is nearing 100% and ready to play. Can you elaborate?

A: Well all indications is that he will be fine. Right now we are only 2 games behind Los Angeles and have an upswing in momentum, we want Buster to come back 100% and we don't see any rush if he isn't quite there yet. We will likely send him down to Sacramento for a week to give him time to stretch it out and slowly ease back into game shape before we have him calling games in the big leagues.

Q: Denard Span was awarded with the NL Player of the Week. You must be proud seeing veteran leadership preforming day-in and day-out.

A: D-Span has been great this season. I think he is hitting something like .308 over his last 10 games on top of a .313 season. He works hard everyday and we expect nothing less from him. Hes a great role model for the younger kids trying to figure out their stride.

Q: Your team is sitting at 34-21 on the season right now? Is this a year to think about another World Series?

A: I will let the fans fantasize about World Series Championships and all that. It would be great to add #4 on this impressive decade but I won't be disappointed if we don't. We have to keep plugging away and as long as the numbers keep improving, and things keep going our way, we may be set for another big season.

Q: As always its a pleasure to have you here on the home of San Francisco Giants Radio!

A: Thanks for having me!
