The Harrison Bader pickup is a good one for the Giants. Great defender, decent bat, good speed.

put down that coffee. stop petting that dog.......
Giants ink Luis Arrrrrrraez who led the league in Rs and BA for 3 seasons.
he must be toxic since no other club wants him, which is perfect for the baseball bay area!
Luis will most likely play second base and will serve as a ticket agent on the GGB on off days from 9-2pm

...or it could be that he's just not very good. He's a singles hitter. Full stop. He's never scored a hundred runs, or driven in a hundred. He's not a doubles triples or home run hitter. He doesn't have any serious injuries, but doesn't have a position that he plays well. He's posted two seasons with over a hundred errors at second, and he's a butcher at first base. At DH you simply can't have singles hitter. He's not fast never stolen really any bases. He's hit .224 in the post-season. "Ladies and Gentleman, now batting.... Manny Mota" His walk-up music should be "You Ain't a Goin Nowhere"
but he can collect a toll like no other!
and will be an asset on the Golden Gate Bridge thus relieve and thwart congested traffic on the US Highway 101
that is the reason they signed him, since the Giants do provide assisting with the welfare of that bridge
as per the 1958 GGB_SFG pact/agreement.
Definitely not a fan of Luis Arraez's game. Empty BA, no power, bad defense. I thought this type of player became obsolete by the mid-80s.
Thankfully the deal is only 1 year. I still have some hope that Casey Schmitt can contribute.

Mr R has a contract of $12 million per year according to MLB as the GGB is raising a that toll could climb to more than $12 under new proposal?
something fishy here......

Apparently, he hits timely singles... that could be useful.. I mean if anyone gets on base in front of him.
He's such a defensive liability though. His poor defense might end up overshadowing his offensive upside. Going after Donovan or Hoerner would have made much more sense for the Giants, IMO.
But he doesn’t hit timely singles.
His best RBI yearly total is 69 in 2023. I wish MLB kept statistics on how many times a player was doubled up while on base, because given his lack of speed and the dearth of runs-scored, I bet he’d lead the league.
He’s more likely the league’s MDA Most Difficult Albatross.
Congratulations, he’s all yours! And he’ll pair nicely with Devers when he sours on management, which should occur in 10, 9, 8, …
