Bobby Evans’ days as the Giants’ GM appear to be numbered

Here’s all circumstantial evidence available to us that suggests Bobby Evans is out as the Giants’ general manager.

  • The Giants are completing their second consecutive losing season for the first time in a decade.
  • The team can’t hit and all the players they were counting on to carry the team and be core superstars have hit a wall and won’t be more than role players at best for the next few years. As such...
  • The payroll is a mess. By competitive balance tax numbers alone, $55.167 million is committed to Johnny Cueto (out until 2020), Jeff Samardzija (who’s still Jeff Samardzija), and Mark Melancon (the closer who can’t close).
