"It's been a long road to get our rotation to the place it's in now, and we feel like we have the best rotation in baseball," Farhan Zaidi said. This statement echoed throughout the latter half of the season as the Giants struggled, reflecting both the optimism and the pressure that comes with high expectations in a competitive league.
Despite having strong pitching potential, the Giants ranked only 13th with a 4.02 ERA after the trade deadline, highlighting a failure to meet the lofty expectations set by their management.
As Buster Posey takes over leadership, he stresses that a middle-of-the-pack rotation won't suffice for the Giants, a team that has historically depended on pitching rather than hitting for success.
With promising talents like Blake Snell and Logan Webb, the Giants had reasons to be optimistic about their rotation. Yet, it ultimately fell short, demonstrating the volatility of team performance across the season.
