Farhan Zaidi tried to explain SF Giants' free agency woes. He made it worse.
Briefly

"We're not just a baseball team that has a player payroll, we're an organization that employs a lot of people," Zaidi said. "When I think about our organizational health, I'm not just thinking about our player payroll, although that's the fan-facing element of our finances that gets the most attention and is the most important. But I think about our employees, I think about not laying people off, I think about providing wonderful benefits and resources to the people who work here, which we do a wonderful job of."
"I understand the reaction, and I think kind of Greg's broader point was, 'As an ownership group, we're going to support aggressive pursuits of free agents, which we've done, but we're also looking for an overall model of economic sustainability, and that's not just for the fans and the players but the people who work in the facility.' I'm completely on the same page with him on that."
