Thursday BP: Brandon Belt is back, baby!

That’s right, everyone. Brandon Belt is back! The Belt Wars are over and the Captain will make his triumphant return this spring after accepting the one-year qualifying offer.

And when he takes the field, he will officially become the longest tenured San Francisco Giants player on the roster. And you can bet he’s going to be lording that two month gap over Brandon Crawford all season.

Belt (and Crawford’s) veteran presence and history with the team will be sorely needed after the unexpected retirement of Buster Posey earlier this month (oh god, writing that still hurts my soul).
