Show notes
The second half of the season is here, and everything the San Francisco Giants do from this point forward could shape the franchise's future.
John Shea outlined the biggest storylines facing the Giants over the final months, beginning with the looming trade deadline and which players Buster Posey could move. We break down the biggest decisions ahead, including the futures of Luis Arraez, Robbie Ray, Adrian Houser, and the veterans who could reshape the roster before the deadline.
We also discuss what the Giants should experiment with down the stretch. Should Jung Hoo Lee move higher in the batting order? Is it time to give Casey Schmitt an extended look at shortstop? Could Rafael Devers eventually see time at third base? With the playoffs looking increasingly unlikely, the second half is about more than wins and losses—it's about finding answers for 2027.
Plus, we profile Giants draft pick Peyton Bonds and discuss what the organization is getting in the latest addition to its farm system.
