SAN FRANCISCO -- The social media reaction to the report that the Giants had signed Brandon Beachy was predictable, and at times, to be fair, funny. Shoutout to the person on Twitter who responded by pointing out that “he was really good in 2012” applies to most of the current Giants roster.
But one tweet caught my eye and got me thinking. It was a complaint about how the Giants added another aging player, which in the past has been as valid as any gripe.
Every year Giants executives say they would like to get younger and more athletic in the offseason.
