With Bobby Evans’ dismissal as the San Francisco Giants general manager should come a new era of baseball for a team that was so successful in the early part of the decade. But whoever takes over the job and is tasked with returning the team to its former glory will be in an unenviable position.
As a club, the Giants are in bad shape. They’re less than a week from completing their second consecutive losing season, and with their ridiculous payroll, that’s unacceptable. Since the All-Star break in 2016, the Giants have gone 166-225, which is unacceptable for a team that was put together to be competitive.
