The 30: Offseason Stock Report «
Here's his bit on the Giants:
11. San Francisco Giants
It’s an even-numbered year, so get excited. That may seem like a glib way of assessing the Giants, but it’s pretty fair: This team has gone from a World Series win to a negative run differential to a World Series win to a miserable 86-loss campaign without major changes to the core roster. If that pattern continues, last year’s underachievers should fare better in 2014.
In particular, Matt Cain (who’s coming off a 4.00 ERA, which was his worst in seven years) and Pablo Sandoval (a notorious good-year-bad-year player who’s mysteriously in fantastic shape entering his walk year) could deliver strong bounce-back seasons, while Tim Hudson should provide the kind of competent innings that Barry Zito and Ryan Vogelsong failed to last year. And of course, notorious deadline dealer Brian Sabean has trade chips at his disposal if the Giants are in the race come June or July and want to upgrade.
