The San Francisco Giants have played 50% of their season, and while the All-Star break is typically thought of as the halfway point, the completion of half the schedule seems like as good a time as any to review where they are to understand what kind of team this might be.
The positives
The record
Personally, I believe their 39-42 mark is bad and that the last time the team had that record as of the halfway mark was 2013, a bad season. But! I am old, and I need to understand that in the new Wild Card era, we’re not even rooting for mediocrity, we’re rooting for blind stupid luck.
