Oct 31 2B Freddy Sanchez agreed to a new two-year, $12 million deal with the Giants, who had an $8.1 million option on him for the 2010 season. Sanchez said he is eager to prove to the organization and its fans that he is the All-Star player the Giants thought they were getting when they traded for him last July, not the player who missed most of the last two months because of injuries.

Oct 30 Sanchez (knee) agreed to a two-year, $12 million contract to remain with the Giants, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Recommendation: The contract eliminated an $8.1 million option for next season. The Giants also approved the deal after checking on the progress of his left knee, which required surgery to repair a torn meniscus, so it sounds like he's making progress.
