Building the team through pitching and defense is the right call I feel. Bank on this to get wins and maybe we can attract hitters by saying “you’re gonna play for a contender that can win”. Pitching and defense also favors our ballpark well so build the team that can excel at home. Let’s go Giants
I think Zaidi spent this offseason because he knows he’s on the hot seat-remember Johnson said he hadn’t signed the extension for Zaidi. I believe ownership was trying to create the illusion of a cohesive front office to recruit Ohtani and Yamamoto and once that didn’t work the particulars came out about not signing the deal.
Not landing either is a blessing in disguise. You're basically losing out on a rookie and a .300 hitter that might pitch for another three seasons from 2025. To add that neither one of them would have added much if anything to the infield/outfield
Have loved following the progress of Giants' farmhands for many decades. Of those prospects who DON'T appear in most pundits' top ten list, who's progress are you most excited about down on the farm?
Weird question but could someone explain what I should know about the giants going into the year. I want to follow them closer this year but haven’t paid attention since like 2014. I know pretty much 0 catch me up plz
The Giants sure did push all-in this year. I don't know if it will matter in the end but at least the effort is apparent for once. I think Yaz and Slater might be expired goods this year based on health and performance for 2022-2023. The most important thing I will be looking at this year will be the team defense. They were worst in MLB last year. Shortstop is also a big question mark for me. I still think some kids emerging is essential for the Giants to be relevant this year.
What’s great is Lee and Hicks are young. Catcher: Bailey and Sabol are young, Bryce Eldridge has 1B look good in the future, Estrada is under 30, Fitz and Marco are young for SS and Walker Martin and Maui Ahuna and Averson Arteaga make SS look great for the foreseeable future, 3B has Schmitt for the future, OF has Matos, Munguia, Lee, Bericoto, McCray for the future too. Pitching we all know has a long list of young guys here and coming too. I’m just too lazy to list the arms lol. My point is, I finally feel good about the future and the farm
This team brought in players haphazardly. They can't even beat the Padres, and Zaidi won't make tough love trades to better the roster. They cut their youth position players and only excitement is Ahmed's comeback. Giants are a waste of time.
Giants lacked defense, aggressive baserunning and power last yr and need 2 players or more with 20+ steals to manufacture runs having players who need to get the lead out in "K" happy lineups. If Chapman was significant upgrade, why didn't he sign a 1 yr deal instead of 3? His best years are BEHIND him. What prospects? Matos and Luciano got optioned, and the team with prospects are Rockies. This team needs to trade Yaz, Slater or Conforto and bring Matos back to get younger-Get real and leave cheerleading KNBR.

And next year's class of free agents looks even better

Keeps options open for the 2025 class of free agents as well.
