Why San Francisco Giants’ Final Series Still Matters
Despite being out of the playoff race, the San Francisco Giants’ last series holds significant stakes for individual contracts, and team record. With a striking increase in their strikeout rate, the Giants have become the second-highest in MLB since the All-Star break. This episode explores how young talents like Marco Luciano, Luis Matos, and Grant McCray are handling the pressure, alongside Patrick Bailey’s offensive struggles. The Giants’ recent series win against the Arizona Diamondbacks has left the Diamondbacks in a precarious playoff scenario, potentially waiting beyond the regular season for their fate.

Are there any real trades the Giants can make this off season?
So many questions, not nearly enough answers.
Bottom line, they need more bats. Team ERA is 4.07, runs scored is 4.3 a game. Sounds like a .500 team.
By comparison, the Dodgers have a 3.93 ERA, just a bit lower, but have scored 5.13 runs per game. Defensively they are the same at .985.
So add a run a game and you'll win closer to 95 games than 81.
Ramos might be that stud they need, but even so, another big bat would help. Look at the Padres and Dodgers. Hitting does matter, even if everyone thinks pitching and defense are more important.
They really need more hitting. Even if the pitching is off, if you can hit, you can make up for it.
