1) Reds now the frontrunner have a four year deal with for Nicholas Castellano.
2) Bobby Evans interviewing for the Astros' job.
3) Giants get picks #68 and #69 in the draft, thanks to the losses of Bumgarner and Will Smith. Giants now have five of the first 87 selections in the 2020 MLB draft including #13, #49, #68, #69 and #87. And since the topic has come up, here's the percentage of selections that make the majors:
1st round: 75%, approx. Makes you appreciate the trade for Will Wilson. The Giants eat $12 mms. worth of bad contract to get a 21 year old with a 75% chance of making the bigs. Seems like a good idea to me.
2nd round: 50%, approx.
3rd round, 39%, approx.
4) Doesn't sound like the Giants are able to trade their big $/no results contracts:

So that gives the Giants a good chance of getting 2.5 MLB level players in the next few years. . . .
Free Phogge!!!! And no, crimson doesn't refer to the Tide.
