José Ramírez to the San Francisco Giants? It's a pipe dream for sure, but it may not be entirely unrealistic. Ramírez will be entering the last year of his deal with Cleveland in 2023, and if the Guardians don't believe they'll be able to extend him, history suggests they'll be looking to trade him. And that it might not even cost as much as you'd expect.
On today's Locked On Giants podcast, host Ben Kaspick answers questions from listeners about the state of the San Francisco Giants. Among the questions asked and answered are:
Would there be a decent enough package without Marco Luciano, Luis Matos, and Kyle Harrison to pull off a José Ramírez trade?
With the off-season spending seemingly at an end, how would you rate the Giants? A+? B-?
I think I've had enough of the hot stove. On the current roster, which position player do you think is due for the biggest negative regression and the biggest (positive) surprise?
Any chance we try and trade for Trey Mancini maybe for package of Tyler Beede, Mauricio Dubón, etc. to bring a big right-handed bat to a mostly lefty lineup?
Thoughts on LaMonte Wade Jr. building off of last year or will he come back down to earth in 2022?
Let the YOUNG guys play! After the revolution of old players last season, do you think the team is led this year by the next generation of Giants stars? Heliot Ramos? Logan Webb? Joey Bart?
