Farhan is looking pretty good at this moment in time.
It looks like passing on Correa will turn out to be the biggest move he made in terms of resources, but, Haniger, Davis, Conforto, and Sabol are looking like the four best signings anyone had this offseason. You can't win them all, however. Manea and Stripling look very bad.
Of course, the Giants' record with and performance of Schmitt and Bailey can't be denied. Even Wade and Estrada are looking really good. Wade has turned into a great leadoff hitter after a couple years ago being noted for his power.
The Giants are now officially interesting (to me) again. If Harrison was ready to come in and be a top 3 starter - which I believe is what Farhan and co. expected this year - I could see them as a playoff team. The defense has improved greatly with Schmitt and even Bailey. And so too has the team speed with Sabol and Schmitt.
The way these teams are constructed now, it really is necessary for all or most of the envisioned parts to be playing. It really looks like Haniger and Schmitt were important pieces to the envisioned puzzle.
