we just need to get back to what we were doing. Judge and Harper don't win you much. See Trout, he hasn't won anything his entire career. You need good management, a ton of pitching, team leaders, good catcher and quality fielding. We can check a lot of these boxes here. Farhan cost us big time by Cobb being out of action and Ray to start the season. We knew Snell would come along a lil slow with his late signing. So he walked into the year with 3/5s the rotation out of action more or less. That's how he fired himself essentially.

Ohtani hasn't won anything either technically, but you take him if you can. Same way with Judge and Harper

One player won't win you the World Series, but having a cornerstone player certainly helps (see Posey). We seemingly can't develop one, so we need to sign one if possible and continue building.

sure you take those guys, but notice when we had that guy we didn't win jack. that guy was Bonds. i don't view mlb as a stars game where you need the games biggest star to win. that's maybe NBA.

Absolutely. Eve the best players make an out one out of every 3 ABs. Even the best make an errors sometimes. Even the best pitchers can suffer if the team doesn't hit.

ok, just like to point out while you agree with this...faithful is the same dude who repeatedly told us this years team was making the playoffs for the same reason.

Not sure if you guys noticed but that didnt happen.

Continue on.

I agree that getting a superstar doesn't guarantee a pennant as he pointed out. In fact the only times the Giants have won was when they had no superstars other than pitchers. If you remember even then they were underdogs in nearly every playoff series each year. I just hope Buster is capable of doing the job. Hopefully he can start by changing the culture, especially in the minor leagues.

Bob Mel is a total loser. Dude put trash lineups out all year and did nothing with a loaded Padres team. We screwed up not hiring Vogt.
