Your 2025 Giants: Reviewing The Modern MLB Rotation Chaos Portfolio Theory

Last off season I wrote in a post about how the Giants approached Zaidi’s idea of finding starting pitchers who can get the Giants 162 game starts, as contrasted with the traditional objective of finding 5 32-starts starting pitchers. 

Now that Posey is in charge, I thought it would be interesting to see what the Giants are trying to do this season, which, to me, is very much like last season.  And dig into where they are going to put all these pitchers. 

{Note: wrote most of this before Opening Day; obviously, the pitching has been pretty good so far}

Your 2023 Giants: To Zaidi or Not Series - Realists vs. Rationalizing Fans

There was only going to be seven in my series. But I decided to add a bonus additional one because of my recent interaction with a troll (he/she called themselves that).

He/she said that he/she is a realist and that I'm just rationalizing my thoughts on why I think the Giants can be competitive in 2024.  Thinking through this, I realized that much of what the downcast Giants fans are doing are rationalizations of their unhappiness with the team.
