The San Francisco Giants have yet to make it clear what their intentions are for 2019, but if they are willing to trade Madison Bumgarner you would have to think they don’t plan to compete next season.
You don’t trade the best player on your team and a top 15 starting pitcher in the entire game if you plan on competing in 2019.
For me, this could be the first sign that the Giants are looking to begin a soft rebuild for the future.
The San Francisco Giants haven’t done much since Farhan Zaidi took over as head of baseball operations.
