Mr. Riley, you make compelling points. Buster definitely will be in on. Burnes. He loves his Bulldog demeanor and eats innings at a high level. I’m not saying we are going to sign Burnes, but I would not be surprised. The Giants will look for a DH/1B type like maybe a Josh Naylor, Goldschmidt type. Buster will get another middle of the order bat. Expect a few trades too to improve the club to off set salary for older underperforming players.
I definitely agree about the ace but I think we could fill DH internally (Encarnacion/Meckler/Flores) and I'm not sure it's worth getting another 1B for a few months if we already have Wade. Now.....if we could get Suzuki for Mike Yastrzemski + something else reasonable I would do that for sure.
There’s also potential trades of Wade, Yaz and Rodgers to gain additional payroll flexibility especially with all the young pitching they have to sweeten a deal
Hell yeah!!! there's been rumors about 3 players I really didn't want on the team (being a Dodgers fan) now it's 1 down 2 more to go (Soto and Arenado). Hope the Mets or Boston or the Yanks or Toronto anounce already they're getting Juan, and either the Cardinals keep Nolan or move him to any team in real need for a 3B.
The Giants should grab Santander and Christen Walker before Soto signs also. Corbin Burnes would also be a great addition as Robbie Ray pays major dividends next season
I was thinking Houston would sign Willy Adames because he would be our Thirdbasemen incase if Bregman decides to sign elsewhere.He would be helpful to our offense to fire them up and score runs to assist us win games.
15:08 they will still be in on Burnes/Fried. I don’t think they want Sean back, although I knew he was going to have a good year this year the way he finished the 2nd half with us in that walk year. They’re not going to go after Verlander or Mad Max or even Morton. They’re looking to add a guy they can keep at the top of the rotation for a few years.
IF the Giants pickup Fried ...they might have a good team. However I really hope ATL is trying to make a splash for a Fried deal. 5 years 140 - 150 million.
With the Braves I'm ok with Arcia for another year. I want the Braves to get a good LF and starting pitcher. Arcia isn't a .280+ guy, but he isn't that .218 bad 2024 season
They had to overpay. Their roster is filled with a bunch of average, non-difference making guys. SF is in a bad place and needs to do anything it can to get talent in there.
Not really. 26M/yr. Same as Chapman essentially. Considering all the other contracts for top SS in the league over the last 3-4 years has been 10+years/200M+, starts to look pretty good. You have to consider there’s no good options to sign last year and there’s a big drop off from Adames to Kim and the rest of the SS available this year. It’s a little more than what Swanson got and you could argue he’s better than Dansby.
This Is What Happens When Teams 'Wait' For Soto To Decide...Other FAs Sign Elsewhere & You Have Fewer Choices...That Is The Definition Of Dumb...This Isn't Boxing Or Tennis...You Need More Than One Guy...Especially To Beat The Dodgers...
All the Giants did was signed their new Brandon Crawford. The amount of years is too long because he’s gonna be 36 going on 37 when the contract is up so he maybe has like three or four years that are good for that deal and then he’s gonna end up not being worth the contract. Way too many years.
The Giants are still gonna end up third or fourth in the west because they’re still not better than the Dodgers, Padres or maybe even the Diamondbacks. They got a long road ahead of them and it’s not changing anything just by signing that one player.
@@yurrrrrrrrrrrrr1 I'm not a Giants fan, btw. Dodgers/Yankees fans remind me of Amber Heard. if they're not the center of attention they sh.t the bed😂🤣
As a Reds fan......THANK GOD! THE BAD MAN CAN'T HURT US SO OFTEN ANYMORE! 😂
Bellinger, Suzuki, and Nico's Value just went up. 💯💯💯
Nice
Happy for the giants
Now get one of those ACE pitcher that are in the market
You can still do Ha-Seong Kim even after signing Willy Adames.
You play him at 2B and Tyler Fitzgerald becomes your utility guy.
Mr. Riley, you make compelling points. Buster definitely will be in on. Burnes. He loves his Bulldog demeanor and eats innings at a high level.

Good move ,. Soto is for of the craziest owners
The Giants make a deal 🎉
Good for the giants
Giants still have work to do. Need another Ace, DH, temporary 1st baseman till Eldridge is ready and possibly an outfielder.
I definitely agree about the ace but I think we could fill DH internally (Encarnacion/Meckler/Flores) and I'm not sure it's worth getting another 1B for a few months if we already have Wade. Now.....if we could get Suzuki for Mike Yastrzemski + something else reasonable I would do that for sure.
The National league West has serious competition and I want the guy who loves that challenge.
There could still be trades involving Yaz, Wade Jr., or Flores. The line-up isn’t necessarily set.
Congrats to the Giants. I hope he does well in that cavernous ballpark.
There’s also potential trades of Wade, Yaz and Rodgers to gain additional payroll flexibility especially with all the young pitching they have to sweeten a deal
I would have waited until Soto signs if I were Adames.

Giants going from 80 wins to 82 next year. 😅
Lol

Man that team isnt near contention not even after Adames
SF really should consider tearing it all down and starting over.
Middling roster and poor farm system. Bad combo.
The Giants should get the Korea market by adding both the HS Kim's. They also solve 2B and LF (with depth in SS and 2B).
Adames is possibly the second best SS in the NL.
And I'm hoping that's just for starters
Alex bregman price just went up 185 plus 7 years
I think Bregman will resign with the Astros...they offered him a good contract.
lets Go. love we got no money Cover. going to be getting my tickets Payday.

Let's Be Honest, Adames wasn't signing with a Team if He wasn't going to be playing Shortstop for that Team.
Youre wild bro... IF we didnt sign Dansby...we are not overpaying for an Older Adames... No freaking way.
As a Jays fan, I love this. Hey Dodgers! ya want Bichette now!!! lol
No
Blue jays weak team
Still but hurt over othani 😂🤣
I'm a Jays fan and I wouldn't be laughing at any other team. Our team sucks
How about Sasaki and/or Bueller?
Huge overpay nobody else would take there money but dam lol
Don’t be hating on the Dodgers because your team can’t do what they do
lol yeah no other other can defeer 1 billlion a year, shut up
No. We just hate the Dodgers because they are the Dodgers and the Dodgers suck. No matter how good they might be.
Could the Cubs extract Patrick Bailey for Assad, Alcantra?
This is a nice addition but this is still a .500 team and the west is stacked.
Mets. 735 x 16
Red Sox 701 x 15
Yankees 600 x 12 out at 5th year
With the Braves I'm ok with Arcia for another year. I want the Braves to get a good LF and starting pitcher. Arcia isn't a .280+ guy, but he isn't that .218 bad 2024 season
Do you think Dodgers get Sasaki, and Fried to go with the 6 man rotation? 1. Glasnow 2. Snell 3. Yoshi 4. Fried 5. Goatani 6. Roki
Don’t know how they can spend the money on Blake Snell when he already signed with the Dodgers
if Soto is really at or exceeding $700 million, those teams can go blank themselves
this might be a flyer shot in the dark but could they maybe work a trade with arizona for montgomery
This isn't a surprise at all. Everyone knew the Giants were going to spend big and they were looking for a SS.
Posey isn't Farhan that's for sure
They moved Luciano to the outfield
Huge over pay.
Same deal as Matt Chapman. It's not that bad.
Not really

In today’s market, I disagree.
huge overpay for a guy who strikeouts wayyyy too much and doesnt make much contact but this is modern mlb!
Luis Matos would be in left over McCray
is this the west team Fried is waiting for?
If he waits he gets more money because of the bidding war that would have happened
How is the Gaints payroll so highly besides Chapman now Willy who is making money on this team
Yeah I was a bit shocked as well

Giants ain’t winning anything after that signing 😂😂😂
Awesome for Giants & Adames. hopefully they take down the Dodgers and their woke toxic fans. I'm not a Giants fan. I'm 1st Nations
this is the type of comment that makes me laugh and be glad that im a dodgers fan and not a giants fan 😂
Ir takes, more then one player to take down, my dodgers.. 😮😮
