Hello and happy Friday.
The trade deadline is coming up on Monday, and a surge from the San Francisco Giants has put the organization in a funny spot, just as it did a year ago. Only this time the Giants are playing a shortened season with an expanded playoff pool, so they’re really in the postseason race.
But they also know that the future is more important than the present, which surely makes trades worth looking at.
For many of us, it’s hard to say whether the Giants should buy, sell, or stand pat at the deadline, since we don’t know what offers will be on the table (especially this year).
