The Giants have moved decisively in recent days. They answered their third-base question with Casey McGehee.

"I think we're going to take the next day or two to assess what we have left both to spend and how we can best execute the next move," Giants GM Brian Sabean said Saturday during a conference call to announce the McGehee trade.

Sabean said the Giants have spoken with right-hander James Shields, a potential upgrade for their starting rotation.
