The Giants sure are looking like a team that is happy to lose in exchange for maximizing their profits. They are being run to make money, not win. No Top 10 most valuable franchise should be worried about making money, because the real value is in the equity. PLEASE, Giants owners, sell to Joe Lacob and take your profits!!!
To be fair, the Giants spent the 6th most of the 30 MLB teams on free agents as measured by total spending. So apart from not landing a broken shortstop and an outfielder who literally turned down an offer that was $40 million more than what the Giants offered, the Giants did actually spend big.
