Other than “he got bad”
I don’t want to ruffle any feathers here, but it’s possible that Giants fandom is a little more pessimistic about Jeff Samardzija’s contract than we were a couple of months ago. And at the risk of being even more preciously out on this limb, the biggest worry about him is the number of home runs he’s allowed. If you need some time to digest all this new and complex information, please watch this video of a baby sea otter as many times as necessary.
Back? No? Oh well, I knew the risks going into that.
