As soon as the Giants left Toronto last month, they turned around and called up Vladimir Guerrero Jr., the #1 prospect in all of baseball, swept the A’s and improved to .500. Since that sweep, the Blue Jays have played 12 games and won...
Twice.
Just two games.
That’s as many games as Toronto will play against the Giants today and tomorrow.
This is the classic definition of a trap series for a struggling team. The Giants are looking to rebound from a rough week, a rough run of publicity, and a rough few turns of the rotation.
