With Stanton and Ohtani now out of the picture, the Giants have to consider backup plans. So, let's get the obvious out of the way, because I don't have much care for their value right now:

If you have visited the MLB 10: The Show ***MLB '10: The Show Pictures/Videos/Highlights*** thread recently, you would notice that I posted an onslaught of screenshots showing off the baseball stadiums in MLB 10: The Show for PlayStation 3.
