He doesn't need to say anything. Saying he's happy is an indicator that he's not interested in leaving.

I am extremely glad they were eliminated but it doesn't make me feel better about the giants. I invested a full season into watching s**t baseball, an average lineup, questionable/stupid lineups, and horrendous defense. Then ending in a manager firing and no idea who will replace him, not a huge FA market to fix the issues, and a GM who can't seem to land stars. The dodgers losing doesn't take that away.

Also, the dodgers seem committed to doing or spending whatever it takes to keep dominating the NL West. So all this does is likely make them more active in the offseason. If that is even possible.

How many yers have the Dodgers been spending big and not getting results. inning the division is meaningless when you spend like that. You expect to win the World Series. The big spending teams like the Dodgers, Yankees and Padres have two titles between them since 2000 and one was in the Dodgers was in the Covid shortened season. It'a not just about spending big. It's being smart about how you put the tem together. It appears that too many stars one team can be as bad as having none. The difference is that they may be more entertining during the season.

A team like the Giants could easily be a contender with one more solid starter and one or two bonafide stars in the lineup.

Dear Sir,

I call b******t. Answer this scenario based on reality. Obviously we will start 2015 on as we all would take the 3 WS trophies if I went back farther.

If the Giants weren't going to win a WS (which they haven't since 2014) would you rather watch seasons like we had this year and be disappointed all year, or would you rather win the division pretty much every year and be disappointed at the end. I would have been a lot happier watching a 100 wins vice 79. In the end its about WS, but I still hope to enjoy watching the team all year. And this team isn't enjoyable as you can tell by the reactions in the thread.

Sincerely,

You friend til the end,

Rubs

Yay?

I'm not going to lie and say I know much about him.

It's unfortunate Zaidi is making this decision. He's a lame duck that will be gone a year from now.

If culture is a problem, promoting someone from the current staff would make no sense.

I would have been pissed!! Even before they asked for Harrison too. SMFH.
