No, the Giants don’t plan to compete next year, but that doesn’t mean they should give up. It also doesn’t sound like they’re planning to, either, if Jon Morosi’s report from a week and a half ago is accurate:
the Giants and D-backs have at least checked in with the representatives for Ozuna.
That’s not 45-year old utility player Pablo Ozuna, it’s 29-year old free agent outfielder Marcell Ozuna, who hit 52 home runs combined over the last two seasons for the Cardinals following a trade from the Marlins.
