San Francisco Giants

The Buster Posey Executive Era is finally putting some miles on its odometer — a general manager hire, a trip to his first-ever GM meetings, a 45-minute closed-door chat with Scott Boras, some signature quotes — and now we can start to take stock a little bit. The verdict: Not bad, Buster.  What are you, […]

The catastrophic inevitable has finally happened for Giants fans. As the sun rises on the morning of Halloween, the Dodgers are World Series Champions. Real world series champions. There’s no angle, no quick retort, nothing Giants fans can say about a shortened season with empty stadiums. This one’s legit. On Friday morning, there will be […]

We have ourselves some good old-fashioned noise surrounding Farhan Zaidi’s future with the Giants. Lots of it. Pretty loud, too. As if the summer of discontent wasn’t enough for a grumbling fan base, with the on-again, off-again dances with .500, a 5-9 September has displayed, for the third consecutive season, that a Farhan-produced team cannot […]
