The San Francisco Giants are squaring off with the Colorado Rockies for the third time this year, and for the third time they won’t be seeing former-Giant Kris Bryant.
While the Giants received a fair share of criticism for not shelling out the big bucks in pursuit of name-brand free agents, they certainly look smart for not matching the seven year, $182 million contract that Colorado gave him.
Bryant has only played in 17 games this season, and has hit rather poorly in those 17. Hopefully he gets healthy and starts playing well, but until then, the Giants will be quite happy to have passed on that deal.
