Dave Flemming was on 95.7 The Game’s morning show the other day talking about the trade deadline moves the San Francisco Giants did and didn’t make, and the headline of the post that summarized the appearance reads, “Dave Flemming breaks down why Giants didn’t trade for Vlad Jr.” But that’s not the most interesting part of his appearance.
I have listened to it multiple times and I think the Giants actively targeted another big bat. Not Vlad Guerrero Jr. I’m fine with being wrong here, but read Flemming’s response after being asked if the Giants were aggressive in trying to acquire a middle of the order bat and tell me that the player he’s referencing is Vlad Jr.
