The San Francisco Giants (62-65) currently sits in fourth place, eight games out of the second Wild Card slot and an additional half game out of the NL West.
After going 7-11 in August, the Giants now find themselves facing the largest deficit that they’ve had all season.
Now, with only 35 games remaining in the regular season, the team has seemingly already begun to look to ahead to 2019.
Last night, reports came out that Buster Posey is expected to undergo season-ending hip surgery. And earlier today, reports indicated that the club placed Andrew McCutchen on revocable waivers amid the August waiver deadline.
