Next up in the Trade Deadline Targets series are a pair of players whose availability may be less certain than it was a week ago (when I said I’d write this post). Logically, the Giants should remain sellers. However, a recent 17-4 stretch has the Giants back within striking distance (of a Wild Card, not the division) of annoying everyone through another miraculous postseason run.
Under its former regime, I’d almost be expecting the Giants to be buyers with less than a week until the trade deadline. However, Farhan Zaidi probably has a better grasp and while the Giants may not have a complete firesale, I’d be surprised if he held on to all their assets.
