Summary
The Giants dropped another series, but the final weeks of this season are becoming less about wins and losses and more about finding out who belongs in 2027. We break down the good, the bad and the ugly from the weekend, including impressive performances from Anthony Molina and Cesar Perdomo, a rough outing for Matt “Tugboat” Wilkinson and a bullpen that continues to be a major problem. With so many young players getting opportunities, has this version of the Giants actually become more watchable than expected? Plus, we revisit Buster Posey's trade deadline after MLB scouts and executives highlighted deals they liked a month later, and look at how some of the Giants' moves are aging. Finally, we preview the upcoming series against the St. Louis Cardinals.
