San Francisco Giants: Setting Expectations For the Offseason

Chances are, it won’t look like offseasons in the past for the San Francisco Giants.

During the Brian Sabean and Bobby Evans era, offseason predictions were almost a running joke amongst Giants fans. It seemed like signing pretty boring players, usually veterans, to fill in at a position for a few years was the norm.

With a new sheriff in town in the form of Farhan Zaidi, it looks like a new formula will be put in place. Whether that means going after big name free agents like Bryce Harper with everything they’ve got, something Sabean and Evans seemed fairly reluctant to do, or trying to make nifty little trades, something Sabean and Evans were very fond of, it will be interesting to see how it plays out.
