While a lot of focus has been on the New York Mets , the Giants have the same record and are just as bad, if not worse. There's a lot wrong with this team right now, between the lackluster pitching staff and the struggling offense, the Giants are in a pretty bad spot as a franchise right now. And according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale , the Giants reportedly "would love" to trade away star players worth nearly $600 million.
That includes Rafael Devers and three other key offensive pieces that are playing well below expectations. Giants 'would love' to trade away stars worth nearly $600M combined "The Giants would love to unload outfielder Jung Hoo Lee ($85 million left on his contract), shortstop Willy Adames ($161 million remaining), first baseman Rafael Devers ($226. 5 million remaining), and Matt Chapman ($125 million remaining) and start over," Nightengale writes.
If the Giants did find a way to make such sweeping changes, shedding a combined $597. 5 million total if they moved all four of these players, it would be a massive admission that this iteration of the Giants is not it. Entering into a rebuild would be a huge letdown for this team, especially considering the hype about this team when they traded for Devers last year.
