Spot on as always, Doug. It would seem the only way the Giants are able to solve their problem signing big time free agents is by having their farm system actually produce offensive stars, so the team gets good and FA want to come here. This leads me to a request....can you please write a piece about what the heck is going on with the outfield? Today the Giants signed another AAAA outfielder, and I'm just so confused. We have so many meh corner outfielders. And how are Ramos or Matos or any other outfield prospect not going to see these signings as a slight? How are they going to get a chance to prove themselves? Help me understand what Farhan is doing. I think he may have a "flexibility/depth" disorder.
