On the Giants podcast with Michael:
1 San Francisco Giants vice president Brian Sabean says this off season will be the time to retool the team. After the Giants had a second half melt down in 2016 they ended up failing to make post season and as a consequence the Giants only real big off season moves they fired their first and third base coaches Roberto Kelly and Bill Hayes. Then the Giants wanted to shore up their bull pen and obtained Mark Melancon who struggled and got injured and ended up having to have surgery.
2 Taking a look at the significant changes and where the Giants need to shore up one place is in the outfield
3 The Giants have won three straight Sunday they got past the Arizona on Sunday, they got a walk off hit from Hunter Pence on Tuesday night to defeat Colorado 4-3 and Wednesday they shutout the Rockies 4-0 behind the brilliant pitching of Matt Moore who improved his record to 6-14. This team is doing everything it can to avoid a 100 game losing season.
4. Will Giancarlo Stanton become a Giant Michael says it’s unlikely, too many variables including his contract that he has with the Miami Marlins runs through 2020 and he has an option and another team could make an offer and he could opt out.
5 The Giants have a three game series coming up in Los Angeles starting on Friday night. The Dodgers need three more games to clinch the west and the Giants would like to win at least two out of three and the last thing that a club likes seeing is another team celebrating a division title after a game.
