Obviously, other players on this team could help create a turning point in this season, but I think it needs to be Buster Posey.
It’s also hard to come down on a guy hitting .286 with a .359 on-base-percentage, but hear me out.
Posey is still the one guy in the Giants lineup that everyone fears. And all Giants players look for him to get things started — they feed off of him. Whether he likes it or not, he’s still the captain of this team.
Seventy-two games into the season and Posey hasn’t even been one of the best two hitters on this team.
