Time to play “I am Zaidi.”…..

Here are the eight Giants eligible for arbitration:

Brebbia
Casali
Dickerson
Garcia
Leone
Ruf
Yaz
Slater

To whom do you offer a contract? 
And who do allow to become a free agent?

I offer:

Casali
Garcia
Leone
Ruf
Slater
Yaz

I do not offer:

Brebbia
Dickerson

Under the heading of transparency… 

This information was recently included in an article at The Athletic.  Before looking at the author’s choices, I made my own.  And yes, they matched the choices made by the author. Quite frankly, I thought it was a fairly straightforward call. However, you might disagree….

Strong move by the Padres: hired Bob Melvin as their new manager.

Agree.  Only question may be Brebbia. But not at what the arbitration figure will be. They can sign a Brebbia or three to minor league contracts.  Dickerson played his way off. Still mystified as to why he was on NLDS roster. One of the few mistakes the staff made.

Yep.  Makes them better, no question.

I offer Garcia, Leone, Ruf and Slater. On the fence for Yaz. Has to make better contact.

Make or break for Jaylin Davis if there is any spring training.

Kinlaw has season ending surgery. Another bad pick, already with a bad knee in college. No #1 in 2022/3. If the ship isn't righted this year or next then Lynchanahan should go.

Yaz hit 25 HRs. Is a gold glove finalist. And can run. Pitchers adjusted. His turn. Absolutely would tender him.  He’s valuable.

Absolutely agree on Yaz

I think ‘22 will be the decider.  Lance will take over. They bet the farm on him.  If they don’t show big improvement, Shanahan and Lynch will be on the plank.

I think they can do better than Yaz. Just me and I may not be right but I am never wrong. So a bald headed ILB once said that on the real TOS.

Lex, MSU vs your Nemesis 9am. Gonna watch?

Yaz - a certainty.

In fact, the author of the article I referenced suggested that it is likely the Giants will buy out the remainder of his arbitration-eligible years by offering a multi-year contract.  The only question is will Yaz accept the offer or bet on himself by risking multiple one year arbitration deals.  

All of this assumes no significant changes to the CBA regarding the arbitration process currently in place.

Yaz should be in Boston. No pressure there.

Looks like your guy has a shot this year.  First time I’ve really seen Michigan.  Is their QB generally this good?

Sorry, Phogge. JH can’t seem to get over the hump. Great game.

RE: [merged] Giants/Niners 2021 thread - Phogge - 10-30-2021

Yeah. Stay with one QB and you win.

Semien has hired Booras. Not coming to SF. Maybe Canha.

I bet Semien signs with Padres.

Niners absolutely stink.

However a tie game except 49ers miss the extra point. Geesh

Very big win for the Niners.

RE: [merged] Giants/Niners 2021 thread - BostonCard - 10-31-2021

Mills probably had his best outing against the Rams (but that is not saying much):
29/38 for 310 yards (8.2 ypa), 2 TD, 1 INT, but he was also sacked 5 times.
