I remember someone asking Pedro Martinez the classic question "what is the secret to your success?" He said "I'm not afraid to fail." I remember really liking that answer at the time. Buster Posey is not afraid to fail. He made a big splash—right away—with the Willy Adames signing. Then he traded away the team's young hot shots for Rafael Devers well before the trading deadline. Blockbuster deals, both of them. Neither one of those moves, unfortunately, has helped the team. The Giants aren't any better right now than they were last year. Or the year before. Or the year before.
