LaMonte Wade Jr. has been traded from the San Francisco Giants to the Los Angeles Angels after being designated for assignment. His performance had declined significantly, culminating in a disappointing .381 slugging percentage last season. Although he had shown value, particularly with a .352 OBP, his recent struggles at the plate and in defense prompted the Giants' decision to let him go. The trade represents a bittersweet moment for Giants fans, reflecting the player's past contributions and the inevitable change in roster dynamics.
"Last year's .381 slugging percentage was a major red flag...his performance only got worse...became a total liability, at the plate and on defense."
"It’s always a little sad when a player who stuck loses stickiness and falls off the roster. Late Night LaMonte was a whole thing..."
