For a lot of folks and a lot of reasons, 2017 was a lousy year. For the Giants, it was so uncharacteristically terrible, Brian Sabean, Bobby Evans and Bruce Bochy are giving last season the cold shoulder, holding firm to the belief that, crazy weather patterns notwithstanding, lightning will not strike twice.
Opinion
The Giants will not lose 98 games. Madison Bumgarner will not fall off his dirt bike. Brandon Belt will duck away from the pitch next time. Right?
Even after failing to acquire the coveted Giancarlo Stanton and Shohei Ohtani, the organization is conceding nothing.
