Introducing a new feature, with food jokes, in the least appetizing way possible.
Today on McCovey Chronicles, we’re going to introduce a new offseason feature, which will last until the 2016 roster is set and/or Reuben gets bored of this gimmick: the Hot Stove Temperature Check. We’ll look at a recent Giants-related trade or signing rumor and go over a few different categories, rating it for veracity, value, improvement, and intrigue. This will help us determine just how hot the stove is - whether it’s a red-hot burner boiling over, or a tepid oven that might not even have a working pilot light.
