Hey BC…
Never confuse a single “what have you done for me lately” who clearly does not understand the dynamics of what constitutes a true fan of a sports team with those who follow said team through thick and thin. Heck, I am disappointed this year but I also understand that s… happens.
Last year, everything that could go right did.
This year, everything that could go wrong did.
The time for a complete autopsy will come later. In the meantime, I was surprised that more action did not occur at the trading deadline. However, after reading a number of articles on the topic, I have a much better understanding of why Zaidi took the conservative approach. I don’t necessarily agree but I get it.
This off-season will tell the tale. The loss of Posey after last season was far more devastating than anyone, especially SF leadership, realized. The Giants need a franchise face that can carry the team when times get tough. In other words, they need to sign someone who can “move the needle”. The good news - the pockets are deep. The money is there. I am confident that Zaidi gets it and will do what it takes to get the Giants back on track.
P.S. I’m rooting for your Padres to take down the evil empire……
