Giants to watch Lincecum throw, unlikely to sign him

SAN FRANCISCO -- In past years, the big story on the eve of Giants FanFest would be Tim Lincecum -- how short he'd cut his hair, that attempted mustache crawling on his upper lip, a fresh set of spectacles.

Lincecum is no longer a Giant. He's still the big story.Giants executive vice president Brian Sabean said he plans to have a contingent representing the club to watch Lincecum when he throws in an open showcase for scouts later this month. Giants pitching coach Dave Righetti said he hopes to be there, and still sees a place for Lincecum in the Giants organization.
