SAN FRANCISCO - Casey McGehee knows how much Pablo Sandoval meant to the Giants and the city of San Francisco. Custom New England Patriots Jerseys . Even living across the country in Miami, he understood the affinity for the Kung Fu Panda in his native Bay Area.After a comeback year for the Marlins sparked by a season in Japan to find himself and his swing, McGehee insists he will stick to what he does best. He realizes hes a different player than the big personality he will be replacing.Obviously Pablo was a tremendous Giant. Its no secret how the people in San Francisco feel about him, McGehee said Saturday, a day after the trade sending him to the World Series champions was completed.Im not going to do the same things Pablo does. Theres some things he does better than I do and theres some things I may do better than he does. I think Id be foolish to go in and think Im going to step into Pablos shoes and completely replace him. Hes one of those guys, with what hes done, is never going to be forgotten or completely replaced in San Francisco, he said.Once McGehee heard the Marlins had acquired Martin Prado earlier Friday from the New York Yankees, he began thinking of the teams looking for a third baseman and instantly hoped the Giants would emerge as a suitor for his services. They acted immediately, and the Marlins are receiving a pair of minor league right-handers from San Francisco in Kendry Flores and Luis Castillo.The 32-year-old McGehee won NL comeback player of the year honours after hitting .287 with 29 doubles, four home runs and 76 RBIs for Miami following a season with the Rakuten Golden Eagles in Japan.Manager Bruce Bochy said he could pencil in McGehee from cleanup to fifth or sixth in the batting order, saying hes a smarter hitter now than in recent years when he hit more home runs.I couldnt have been more thrilled, a great fit for us with what he can do with the bat. Casey has done such a good job of getting his career back on track, Bochy said. I think hes going to be a great fit in that clubhouse the way he plays the game, and thats playing the game right and playing it hard.McGehee is eager to do his part to bring another championship to the Giants. Sandoval won three titles in five years before departing last month to the Boston Red Sox on a $95 million, five-year contract.Theres some added motivation for McGehee returning to Northern California. He was born in Santa Cruz and attended Fresno State University.Yesterday was a pretty crazy day. Wasnt expecting to have as busy of a day as I had. Now that Ive had a night to sleep on it, Ive found myself walking around with a smile on my face, McGehee said. I couldnt be more happy, not only being in an organization that has had the success that theyve had in the last little while but also this is a chance for me to get back home. One of the things Im most excited is being able to finally share some of my career and my journey close to home with my family, my friends.McGehee had 23 homers and 104 RBIs for Milwaukee in 2010, but he went away from what was working — saying suddenly wanted to go from 20-homer seasons to hitting 35.When I try to do too much, he said, it doesnt usually work out well. ... It took me a little while to get back to trusting my approach.He returned to the big leagues from Japan and I had my confidence back. I had a little bit of a chip on my shoulder.Now, he will try to build off his rebound season playing at pitcher-friendly AT&T Park, where he is yet to clear the fences.After seeing Sandoval leave and missing out on signing left-hander Jon Lester, finding McGehee to fill a key position has taken a burden off general manager Brian Sabean. He has long admired McGehee from afar.Im relieved that third base is spoken for, Sabean said. Things really accelerated at a fast pace yesterday where we knew he was the right choice. Coming back from Japan, he had a breakout year for Florida in the middle of the order.The Giants have had conversations with pitcher James Shields but not ace Max Scherzer, nor do they plan to, Sabean said. Tom Brady Patriots Jersey . LeBron James and Chris Bosh didnt need any more. Williams scored 11 points in 10 minutes, Alan Anderson scored 17 points, and the Brooklyn Nets finished the exhibition season with a 108-87 win over the Miami Heat on Friday night. Julian Edelman Jersey . Miikka Kiprusoff had just announced his retirement after a decade-long run in Calgary and it would be up to Berra and Ramo to fill the void. http://www.shoptheofficialpatriots.com/Elite-Tedy-Bruschi-Patriots-Jersey/ . Englands only win in the four most recent trips north had been tight, and Scotland was expected after losing 28-6 to Ireland six days ago to show some venom against its archrival. DENVER -- Relief pitcher LaTroy Hawkins and the Colorado Rockies finalized their $2.5 million, one-year contract on Friday. Hawkins, who turns 41 in December, will compete with Rex Brothers for the closers role at spring training. The right-handed Hawkins was 3-2 with a 2.93 ERA and 13 saves this year for the New York Mets, who wanted to re-sign him but were willing to pay that mucch. Drew Bledsoe Patriots Jersey. This will be Hawkins 20th straight big league season and his second stop in the Mile High City. He played a big role in the bullpen in 2007, when the Rockies made their only run to the World Series before being swept by the Boston Red Sox. He gets a $2.25 million salary next season, and the Rockies have a $2.25 million option for 2015 with a $250,000 buyout.
