With their recent surge in the standings, Farhan Zaidi and the Giants are in a tough spot.
Do they cash in trade chips such as Madison Bumgarner and restock their farm system? Or do they hang on to the 2014 World Series MVP and make a push for an NL wild-card spot?
Zaidi isn't ready to answer that, as he mentioned before the Giants' 3-2 12-inning win over the Mets on Sunday.
But what about another crazy option? What if Zaidi agrees to trade Bumgarner to another team before the July 31 deadline and Bumgarner envokes his power to reject the deal?
