The San Francisco Giants are in the middle of a complete organizational overhaul. The beloved core that shaped the team’s roster over the past decade is merely a shell of its former self — and Madison Bumgarner is a perfect example of this.
One by one the core has begun to fall and it’s clear now that the team is in full rebuild mode. In reality, the Giants have been rebuilding for the past couple of seasons, but the overhaul was never going to be a one-offseason fix.
This is a multi-year process that is far from complete.
