It’s been over a month since the baseball season ended, and even longer than that since the Giants knew they were out of it in 2017. Going as far back as before the July trade deadline the question has remained — rebuild or retool?
During the season I thought the obvious answer was to trade every veteran who was tradable and try to rebuild this thing in a hurry. Well, they hardly did anything at the deadline, and instead we’re left with the same team that lost 98 games last year.
It seems like the hope from the front office is that all the players who had down years in 2017 will rebound in 2018.
