*ahem* This team SWEPT a World Series against a team with prime Miguel Cabrera and Justin Verlander.
The only sweep in the last 14 seasons.
And most of these guys won multiple World Series with this team. It wasn’t just a lucky season.
Respect them.

Mark Mathias is originally from Santa Clara. So Zaidi hit four of his clichés in this trade: Recently DFA’d, Utilityman, traded with Seattle, and Bay Area native.

What a great day for Joey Bart. A home run, a double off the wall, and a pickoff of a runner at second. Exactly what you want from the somewhat embattled catcher!

I hope he does well…but I’m not sure he’s ready after one week.
Look, I love the kids, but this feels like desperation after having failed to build any depth in the middle infield of a big league roster.
After another quiet night for the lineup, the Giants are planning to call up Marco Luciano, per sources:

This! THIS!
And this is on Sabean, Evans, AND Farhan. They have to maximize themselves in the farm system, and hit in the first round.
It ain’t easy, but they need to be better. In drafting AND development.
The Giants' first-round picks since 2010 have accumulated a total of 10.8 WAR for their careers and 5.4 came from Joe Panik. The Dodgers' first-rounders since 2010 have accumulated 68.5 WAR.

For the second straight season, the Giants nabbed a player in the 2nd round of the draft that they were connected to in the 1st round. Carson Whisenhunt has looked like a steal so far this season. Hopefully Walker Martin will follow that!

It's hard to believe that anyone at the

I’ve heard the Giants are looking for pitching at the deadline, but frankly their offense this past week should be concerning.

I'll say it again: ever since Barry Bonds left, left field for the Giants is the Defense Against the Dark Arts position.
The
#SFGiants
may have quietly addressed one of the weakest areas on their roster from the 2023 season - left field. Giants left fielders were last in baseball in wRC+ (70 wRC+) and fWAR (-1.4 fWAR).
Shifting Michael Conforto over to left field and trading Mitch Haniger...

Don’t get excited because Joey Bart hit a home run on his first spring at-bat.
Don’t get excited that it was against the Dodgers.
Get excited that he took an off-balance swing at a well-placed pitch low and powered it well out to the opposite field.

Darin Ruf to the Mets...interesting. I want to see what the full return is, I assume it's not just J.D. Davis. But good luck to Ruf...he's been a very good Giant, and I hope he gets a chance elsewhere.

Gotta be honest, Schmitt should’ve been sent back down to work on things a while back. I’m worried that extra useless months in the big leagues hurt his development.

Kyle Harrison is facing a hell of a lineup for his first game. I wouldn't feel bad about giving up a home run to Bryce Harper, especially with how hot he is. He's looked very good otherwise.

That's 21 players for the

from

Well, they went for risk early, with two-way player Bryce Eldridge as their top pick, but got a lot of value picks later. Walker Martin was rumored to be their 1st round pick, and fell to 2nd...

In other Snell-related feelings…I like this for Mason Black and Hayden Birdsong, as well as Kai-Wei Teng. It allows them to not rush into the Majors, and really force their way in (which I think they will).

Bart seems to have found his groove, which is good. Will Bart get back up to the bigs? Will Bailey get figured out the way Schmitt was? Is there a trade looming? (Heliot Ramos has come out hot coming back from his injury too…)

The signing of Lee shouldn’t fully absolve Farhan Zaidi of all the criticisms regarding his signing of free agents…but it should build him some credit. Big money was absolutely spent, and he signed a very competitive free agent. But it can’t be his only move.

Joey Bart is a cornerstone type of player. I’d have zero interest in any package in which Bryant was the best piece.
Sources: The

All in all…this is a pretty nice season-ending game. Sure, they lose to the Dodgers, but Kyle Harrison went 5 hitless innings, Casey Schmitt had 2 home runs, and there was a literal passing of the torch moment from Brandon Crawford to Marco Luciano.
Pretty hopeful.

Hunter Bishop just picked up a stolen base here in Richmond after being caught in a rundown, and slipping by a tag to get to second! Akron's manager doesn't like it, but the ump stands by the call! Two hits for Bish tonight so far.

End of Day 1 reflection: Yes, I'm still underwhelmed by Eldridge, but the Giants got two great values in their next two picks. I'm shocked that Martin lasted to the 2nd round, and Joe Whitman is a good college pitcher who slid for some reason. Overall, a good injection of talent!

I can’t add to anything that hasn’t been said already. The Mets concerns makes the Giants look less bad. But still not good. It could’ve been handled better, but at least it seems they did the wrong thing for legitimate reasons.

Just a reminder for people thinking about Marco Luciano, Tyler Fitzgerald, or even Mason Black’s stats this week:
They’re playing in Albuquerque, which has an altitude a bit higher than Denver’s.

This would be incredibly huge, if the

do sign him, and if he continues to develop the promise he shows. The second one is the bigger if.
Giants are expected to sign SS Josuar de Jesus Gonzalez in next year’s international signing period. He’s in the mix for top amateur intl player of the class. Athletic, projects as plus at SS, burgeoning power from both sides. Would be highest profile signing since Marco Luciano.

At this point, the

Not because it’ll change the team’s fortunes, but that running on the nostalgia of the past FO’s success is still going to be better for fans than another position filled with a yearly “Who’s That?”

Heliot Ramos was just removed in the top of the 4th of the Sacramento River Cats, with no obvious reason. Didn't look like there was any injury...but that's what I said about Bart last year, and he had a groin issue. He was 0-for-1 with a walk.

I have criticisms of Gabe Kapler’s managerial style on the field, for sure, and I’ll continue to be vocal of that.

I’m understanding of why most spring games aren’t broadcast…but a night game, at Scottsdale (home) against the Dodgers seems like an obvious good choice to televise, even if it is a weekday, even if they couldn’t know the top prospect was pitching ahead of time.

This is a very good start. Lee improves the center field defense, which I’m sure any pitcher at Oracle Park will appreciate.
It also puts a dynamic bat and base-stealer at the top of the lineup. Though the lineup needs a bit of thump to follow it.
Jung Hoo Lee to Giants. 6 years, $113M. opt out after 4 years.

Every year, I bet a small amount ($5 or $10) on the Giants to win the division, the NL, and the World Series, since I combine a spring trip between AZ and Las Vegas.
Every year.
Except this year.
Stupid Coronavirus.
The Giants were 40-1 to win the NL West and 100-1 to win the World Series preseason (same as the Diamondbacks).
Do you know anyone with some crazy action on the Giants that looks pretty nice right now?

Ismael Munguia was the heart of the 2021 Emeralds team and his energy was a joy to watch. His fun-loving attitude was reminiscent of watching Pablo Sandoval back in ‘07.
He was on an absolute tear to finish 2021. I hope he gets back on track quickly this season!
After a recent family tragedy, plus a long surgery rehab, beloved Giants minor-leaguer hits dramatic HR: “When I hit the home run, I looked up in the sky and I said, ‘This is for you, Tonio.’ Every time I touched a base, I said, ‘This is for you, Tonio.’ )

The thing about talking about players’ perception of San Francisco is that, as with many things in this modern world, facts are outweighed by perception.
You won’t change minds by citing bar graphs or media reports. Trying to downplay other cities comes off as petty.

I still feel the
#SFGiants
have a capable utility infielder (and center field) backup in Tyler Fitzgerald, but the organization seems to not like him as a big leaguer. He needs a bit more development but he’s one to watch.
Farhan Zaidi said adding another starting pitcher is "still very high on our list." Giants are also looking for shortstop depth behind Marco Luciano, preferably someone who can back up multiple positions.

A bit of a rough day for Marco Luciano is his first game at second. Early on, on a double play grounder to third, Wisely threw high, tipping off of Marco’s glove into right field. Here in the top of the 5th, he was slow to charge a grounder and couldn’t glove it.
