The most important of the Giants free agents are Marco Scutaro, Jeremy Affeldt and Angel Pagan. They all said Wednesday that they would like to return to the club.

"Hopefully, everything will work out," Scutaro said. "I'd like to come back here."

The MVP of the NLCS, who also drove in the winning run in the World Series, is at the end of a three-year, $17M deal that he signed with the Red Sox.
