All jokes aside, the Giants have deep enough pockets to be able to afford Adames, Burnes and Alonso, along with Sasaki of course. I get ththat they'll be paying massive luxury tax and giving up valuable picks, but evidently that's what it takes to win championships

It’s not my money, fucking spend it
I’m fine with Alonso but we better be all in on Vlad or tucker next year too. Can’t stop with one.
Alonso would be a short sighted signing that should be avoided imo
Alonso is going to regress fast. He’ll be Jose Abreu in a couple years
If you sign all of those guys then we won’t have the money to sign Sasaki because they’ll lose international money
At this point the market for Alonso is so bad the Giants might as well get him lol (especially if they don’t get Burnes).
No defense, no speed, high strikeout/low walk rate, low OBP, declining stats year after year, already 30 years old, etc etc.
If regression candidate had a face in the dictionary.
I would do 4/100, probably has one or two good years and then turns into Jose Abreu Oracle edition. 5+ years is insanity.
The main benefit I see is it that its a clear sign to other FAs that we are serious about going for it now and are not afraid to spend big. That’ll definitely help get future stars to come here.
I wish we could have Alonso he’s my favorite non giants player in the NL.
Anyone with the “it’s not my money, spend it” mentality is going nowhere. If we spend on Alonso, we’re not going to be able to spend on someone who won’t be a clubhouse cancer and whose best years aren’t behind them.
Hell no. Would not sign Pete on a long term deal. Eldridge prob be ready in 2026. In meantime Wade and Flores can handle it.
If Giants going to sign Pete, one year deal only.
Pass on burnes. Been on a decline the last two Seasons. K’s are down, walks are up, velo is down.
