SAN FRANCISCO–Six teams have been eliminated and four clubs remain alive, but San Francisco Giants fans aren’t watching this year’s postseason with the same level of focus they did earlier in the decade.
The Giants suffered through the worst month in San Francisco-era history in September, winning five games in a 30-day stretch that left a fan base significantly concerned about the direction of the franchise.
Instead of selling playoff tickets, the Giants are trying to sell interest in next season and they’ll soon have a better idea of how to do that. In the coming weeks, San Francisco is expected to hire a new front office executive to set the blueprint for the future and they’ll start laying the groundwork for how to attack free agency and the trade market.
