It’ll cost the San Francisco Giants a lot of money to improve their roster via top of the market free agents and given the ballpark and the quality of opponents in the division, any big hitter left and any premiere pitcher left is likely to not be worth their AAV. Add to that Jung Hoo Lee’s probable season-long learning curve and Robbie Ray being out until after the All-Star break and it’s logical, even rational, to conclude that this year’s a punt and the goal should be to compete in 2025.
Unfortunately, Farhan Zaidi must field a team in 2024.
