What are the Giants doing?

For a club that is seeking to win, why have they made little progress in making the present team better? You can point out the signing of Renteria, but they overpaid for an aging short stop who has lost a step or two and did not exactly power the ball last year. They have two frontline starters in Matt Cain and 2008 Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum, while holding onto Zito because nobody else wants him or his salary so the only thing to do is to hope that he gets hot real fast. Bengie Molina put up a career-high 95 RBIs while hitting .292 (second highest of career). John Bowker is the ONLY infielder who hit 10+ home runs on the team from last year, and in the outfield you have Aaron Rowand, Randy Winn, and Fred Lewis who combined for 32 home runs, and 174 RBIs with 338 strikeouts combined.
