For a brief period of time, from May 14th to June 4th, 2022, Stuart Fairchild was a Giant.
Don’t be too hard on yourself if you don’t remember: for most, he was a name in a Tweet, an obscured face in the outfield, a statue in the batter’s box, a puzzle piece that didn’t quite fit, one of the hundreds of minor signings and dealings orchestrated by Farhan Zaidi at the time.
He appeared in five games that year, patching up a hole center after an injury to Austin Slater, and went 0-for-8 at the plate.
