They are lucky they have a recently built stadium and that St Pete is willing to shell out some money.

A very apt summary of the SF Giants. I never thought that of all things to sink the team it would be the Rotation. Offense has been middle of the pack which considering the average is just not good enough. Last in MLB in stolen bases. Most innings thrown by the Pen. Slowest team in MLB. Defense has been alright. If we didn't have Heliot Ramos emerge as a All Star we would be the third worst team in MLB. That might still happen but it is likely that we are the 6th worst team in baseball this year.

There's more to the Brewers than just Yelich back to a semblance of 2018-19 & Contreras. Bryce Turang's a GG candidate at 2nd base, Joey Ortiz from the Burnes trade is a ROY candidate, as is Jackson Churio (his numbers have been ticking up since June), and other good young players like Blake Perkins and Garrett Mitchell. Unlikely the Brewers will make any moves for pitching. They're overachieving this year to be honest, and they should play long-range game.
