    Jeremy Affeldt had considered looking for a job as a closer this offseason. Then San Francisco offered a contract the reliever couldnt pass up. Affeldt became the first of the 171 players who filed for free agency to agree to a contract, striking an $8 million, two-year deal Monday with the Giantsa team that has wanted him for two years.

    He wants a closer job on the Giants? Brian Wilson anybody? Are they looking at Affeldt as a setup guy or vice versa?
