Buster Posey

Featured Replies

If the Giants don’t pick up his 22M club option for next year, would anyone be interested?  Of course at that price I’m out, but if he would be inclined to settle with 15M, I would be thrilled with that.  

It’s time, we need a true Catcher.  No more Alfaro & Comp.  sign Posey for 2-3 yrs with added incentives.  This would Bridge the gap until Mack is ready.  

I think the OF is manageable but not having a true C is killing this team.  I would also be in the mix for a 3B.  BA just doesn’t cut the mustard.  I agree with @Michael use him as a filler utility.  We need the depth anyhow. 

It’s not happening Giants are working on a extension , I’m sure he will be move to 1st when Bart is ready

Eh, I’m still alittle bitter about him being a little b**** about getting ran and hurt because he didn’t set up properly

"Are you going to accept his apology?"

"Nah I don't think I have to."

Still irks me to this day.

I honestly forgot about him saying that.  

Seems like the media was against us as well.  After that, the Cinderella season nosedived into last place, I think.

Maybe. They have a lot of FA though and they signed Crawford as well.

JJ got hurt and ended up missing the rest of the year, and once the ace was gone ... we did carry it on for a little bit, but yeah, that was more or less the turning point. Staff started to crumble. Offense forgot how to score. Naturally it came to when Stanton started to slump, so did the entire offense.

Being upset at Posey is one thing but I'm still not ok with how many people ignored how rude he was. If it was the other way around and a Marlins catcher said he didn't have to accept Posey's apology it would be seen so differently.

Belt and Cueto are not coming back I think, They will go hard after Bryant , Gausman, Posey and Disco

Scott Cousins did nothing wrong, change my mind 

Tried to win the game and expected Posey to be blocking the plate. It would have been close if he caught it properly.

Giants are 100% going to pick it up

Even if they aren't, why would he sign with the Fish?  He'd sign somewhere with a chance of winning.  Unless we really overpay, which we won't.

Just like Miggy is 100% not leaving the Marlins. 

1. Miggy was traded.

2. I dont think ANYONE ever said that.  (and are we talking about Cabrera or Rojas)  If Rojas, who actually cares end of day.  He isnt a franchise icon.  Cabrera if anyone actually thought he was staying his whole career given what the Marlins were already doing at that point, then they are suckers. 

3. And yes.  Apples and Oranges.

Well the Giants did move on from Bumgarner who you could make a case of being the main contributor of those WS franchises.  You can’t tell me that Giants fans weren’t pissed with his departure, so yeah, anything is possible.   His highest ERA season was 3.90 in 11 seasons for them.  His stats are 1st ballet HOF.

I think it’s up to Posey, if he wants to retire with the same team and work out a lesser 2022 salary than 22M.

Entirely different situations.

Bumgarner also pissed off the Giants front office with his shoulder injury he suffered from biking if i recall.

Mainly 2014 really. They don't win that one without him. Can't entirely say the same for the other two but was still important there.

Rojas.

Who cares?

I mean honestly.  He is a leader on the team but not exactly a franchise cornerstone in any way.

To even compare the franchise impact of a Buster Posey with Miguel Rojas is a fucking joke honestly.

The point is they both wouldn't leave their team and not their output on the field. All in all, they have their own value.

I know, what the hell has Buster Posey ever done?
