Keep him.  We'll need some bodies throwing a ball to the catcher.  He also enhances our draft positioning. 

I can throw the ball to the catcher, help enhance our draft position, AND do it for less money. Whatta think Eppy?

After the game, Scioscia said that Lincecum was staying in the rotation.  

Well, if Joe Blanton could, then Tim should have the same opportunity.

The season is over anyway.

Given the poor state of the pitching staff and the lack of help on the farm, IMO it was worth it to at least try him out and see whether he has anything left. I believe that the question has been answered.

I agree with that, as long as it doesn't mean we finish the season over the luxury tax threshold. If I'm not mistaken, we will need to trade away salary to get back under it.

I bet you you couldn't get it over the plate from the mound

I could and I would prefer Don Baylor as my catcher.

We are out of any post-season race.    I would keep him in the rotation until at least September.   He is showing that he can still put up Ks, it's a matter of the command.   At least give him this season to see if he can find it, and if so try to retain him on a 1 or 2 year deal, if possible.

someone here needs to play xbox with him this winter and find out the truth about how pumped and primed he is for next season.
