Everybody and their pet knows that the San Francisco Giants are in desperate need of star power. Giants fans are tired of a team that doesn't have enough big-name players, and the team's performance on the field also reflects the SF Giants' lack of impact talent. Looking ahead to this offseason, what are some ways the Giants can finally acquire a star (or two or three)?
Other questions asked and answered on today's mailbag edition of Locked On Giants:
What do you think is the ideal balance of "let the rookies play" vs. bringing in veteran players for the 2024 Giants? Like, which rookies should the San Francisco Giants give lots of playing time to, and which positions should they seek veterans for?
With the Giants reportedly in the mix for Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Jung-Hoo Lee, do we see the Giants as making a push toward a younger team rather than going for bigger veteran free agents?
What is your personal take on if the Giants choose to go very proactive/aggressive in their player acquisition strategy? I.e. trading their young players, for instance, Luis Matos and Kyle Harrison for Luis Robert and Dylan Cease?
