For at least a year, and probably two, it’s been tacked on the bulletin board in the Giants clubhouse: A doctored-up, photocopied picture of the “Rat Pack,” with new identities for Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra.

Aurilia made it through to the end of the season, only because he agreed to go on the disabled list a couple times with phantom injuries. And now Winn’s departure is official; he signed a one-year contract with the Yankees last week.
