They've seen their offense produce some truly lackluster results, the team as a whole struggles, and a lot of their pitching staff get off to a poor start. With Patrick Bailey already traded away in a deal with the Cleveland Guardians , it's not looking like much of a surprise that the Giants will be sellers this year. USA Today's Bob Nightengale shared a rumor from multiple MLB executives that the Giants might be considering a trade of a fan favorite ace, Logan Webb.
"Some executives insist they also would listen to offers for ace Logan Webb," Nightengale reports. While it's not a surprise that the Giants are viewed as sellers, this rumor on Webb being a possible trade candidate would be a colossal mistake from the Giants if they acted on it. Giants trade rumor on Logan Webb would be a colossal mistake With the Giants' struggles, a few players being dealt would not be a surprise at all.
However, when it comes to Webb, he's the kind of player that shouldn't be dealt. Not only is he a fan favorite, but Webb is a starting pitcher who has elite upside. That's hard to come by, and something teams shouldn't willingly give up on unless they're set to lose them in free agency anyway.
