[Slusser] “Arizona landed Burnes with a six-year, $210 million offer after San Francisco’s pursuit never advanced much beyond initial talks at the general manager meetings, industry sources said, and an offer made at that point did not get things off the ground.”

With each bit of news it seems more and more obvious that we were never really in the race for Burnes. It appears we’re finally going to try to tank correctly and get the draft capital to
rebuild. Here’s to hoping it works. We’ll see how the fan base takes it.
Let’s admit the obvious. Players aren’t generally trying to come to this team. The Giants are consistently being used for leverage. Nothing to do with taxes, or if it’s “dangerous” here. It’s getting annoying the constant bs coming from different camps about the org not offering enough or whatever when they’ve consistently tried. Players just get worried about their stats and or the direction of the team and anything else about finances is just smokescreen bs

6 yr 210 would have been incredible.
