    So Padres got Xander.  That means they move Tatis to OF and Abrahms over to 2nd?
    Move Kim to 2nd?
    I figure CJ Abrahms is their future.  Then theres Croneworth though at 2nd.  He's not a bad player by any means.

    I'm very curious on what they do.

    tempo is our minor league pipeline guru.

    who did you mention as a Giants SS? I’m not banking on any prospects….every time I hear one touted, they disappoint.
    The Giants have Marco Luciano.  Dude is a stud.
    I have heard that, but I’ve seen too many prospects flame out. if his IS, indeed, a stud then fuck a bunch of FAs, let brandon crawford hold it down for one more 81-81 year.

    Best thing that could have happened to the Giants....let the Mets overpay for him

    Yeah.  As a neutral observer,  the giants kind of got bailed out there

    Good for the Giants.  Now bring up Luciano.

    I can only assume Yankees fans are having aneurysms. Other than that, yeah, I tip my cap to the LOL Mets.

    Thought the Giants were nuts for doing that in the first place.  Glad they got cold feet.

    13 years for any player was too much. I am not upset this fell through.

    I think signing him to a deal more for more than 5-6 seasons is a stretch. I'm glad that Crane wouldn't budge in Houston and I think Giants fans will be happy with this in the long run. Correa is a great player, no doubt. But he is not Mike Trout.

    I don't know, man. Not to play complete devils advocate, and I didn't love the deal, but he was also the youngest free agent, but the Giants came into the offseason saying they wouldn't be outbid for Judge and then didn't end up with a single big name free agent...not great.

    Itll pay off for them in the long run.  They showed a willingness to spend, and as a result, they really helped bid up some MLBPA members and their agents.  It'll earn them consideration in the future.

    Short term?  Being stuck in the arms' race between Los Angeles and San Diego, it probably kind of sucks mentally.
